For This Time Of Year...Surprisingly Good!

The course was in fine shape all things considered. Spring has been a bit off, but fairways and greens were near perfect. That's all that really counts, eh?

Awesome Course Conditions

Course is in awesome condition and playing tough as usual with some unfriendly pin positions....lol

Great course to challenge your skill set at all aspects of the game.

Pace was a little slow, had a few bad players that should have allowed better players to play through

Don't Miss Hot Deals

I'm usually a metroparks golfer. Rarely do I stray from the city courses, but weather and timing caused me to stretch my boundaries a bit. I'm glad it did. Beautiful course, solid layout good pace and course conditions were great. Greens are more challenging than meets the eye so read your putts well or get ready for 2-3 putts. If your in the area or want a little drive to play don't hesitate.

Fun at Chardon

Always enjoy Chardon. They were mowing and course is looking good. Few wet spots but drying up nice. The greens are always tough to play but in good shape. I always look for Golf now discounts to play here. They make a great Bloody Mary too.

Greens were awesome (unlike most courses, players here actually fix their ball marks). Challenging course that is tailorable to all skill levels. Beautiful time of year to play with trees changing color.

We chose this course to celebrate Fathers day with some of our family. We had never golfed here before so we had questions and the starter was very rude to us. He said if we were unprepared and didn’t know what we were doing that we shouldn’t have come there we belong at a rinky dink course.
