Agree with other reviews

Like others have said, this course is in desperate need of TLC. I will say that the greens are nice, and well maintained but the tee boxes and fairways are destroyed. Fun layout, course has a lot of potential. I had my share of fun here, but prefer to play elsewhere

Very nice and friendly people at pro shop, but fairway is too bumpy

People working at pro shop are very nice and friendly. But all fairways are so bumpy and it is not comfortable at all to ride.

Holiday Golf

I haven't played Willowick for many years and I must say that the conditions of the course, especially fairways was terrible. Not sure if it is a lack of money to keep things up or if someone just doesn't take pride in their business. Having golfed out of california, I can safely say that the courses, Willowick, can't hold a candle to the conditions of these courses. I will golf there again, just a shame that the average guy with a limited budget has courses like this one to pick from.

Fair Day

This was my second time playing the course, it needs some work. Pace of play was horrendous but the players were all understanding. The course has a pretty descent layout but the fairways need some grass and the bunkers, which I found alot of, need some sand.

Seems to do the job.

I checked in as a single and was put with 3 very compatible gentlemen who made for a friendly round of golf. Greens were satisfactory but the fairways were "rough" with lots of potholes and very uneven grass which made for a rough cart ride. I didn't lose a ball but many times it took all four of us to find a ball in the middle of the fairway (no exaggeration). The pace of play was ok but the 4 some in front of us somehow became a 5 some and even though may not have slowed us down that much really seemed like it. We did finish a little after 5 with a 12:50 tee-off.

Please make this course better

Hurry up and get mats for the range if you aren’t gonna fix the range up. Greens are solid but please clean up the tee boxes. This course could be fun if cleaned up.
