I always enjoy playing The Sanctuary. The layout is unlike any other course. No hole feels familiar and generic. I was able to pay $29 for a hot deal and I believe it's worth it.

I played this course in 2016 and had some issues about the conditions of the course. When I played this time, all my concerns had been wiped away! The course is in excellent condition. The layout and pace of play were great. Prices are good also. I would recommend this course and will be playing here more frequently.

The front nine holes are mostly traditional golf holes. The back nine, however, features a couple of short par 4, zig zagging holes. I was just thrown off in however different the sides were. The course was in good shape, greens rolled nicely. I just think this is a course to book if you can get it for cheap. I would never pay more than $20 to play here. I did enjoy my round and will likely be back for the right price.

Shale Creek is nice. Obviously one of the nicest courses in northeast Ohio and any local golfer would agree. I just think it has potential to be even better than it is. The only complaint I have is that the greens were very slow relative to how I would have expected them to be. The grass on the greens was much longer than it should have been which made the greens tough to get used to. The layout is great, though. Challenging holes, but nothing impossible. Try not to make mistakes that cost shots early on a hole because you won't be able to make them up on the greens!

nothing about this course is country club quality. you can obviously tell how downhill it has gone since opening to the public. their two longest tee boxes, blue and gold, play from the same distance on 16/18 holes. the greens on 7 and 9 were under repair so they had temporary greens marked about 25 yards into the fairway. the clubhouse looks like it's been abandoned for years. nothing about this course impressed me and i doubt i will play here again.

Chenoweth is a nice course to play in the akron area. There's nothing too special about it, but it's fun and has a good layout. My only problems were that some tee boxes were a little bit concave, and you can tell the course is overplayed due to some dry spots. I will return to Chenoweth in the future.

this course is absolutely phenomenal!!! this was my first time playing and I fell in love! excellent conditions, layout, and maintenance. It is essential to gain your strokes before the "Bermuda Triangle!" The 14, 15, and 16th holes will chew you up and spit you out!! playing these three holes in 3 over par is more than acceptable. If you are within two hours of this course, you need to male a point to play here!!

J. E. Goodpark has SO MUCH POTENTIAL if it only got some TLC from its groundskeeper. The grass needs a good consistent watering to repair some severe dead spots on fairways and in rough. The holes are challenging and have an excellent layout. The golfnow system does not sync with the Pro Shop's computer so make sure you have your email receipt. The greens are a little beat up in some areas, but it does not affect speed or roll. The rough is not as thick as other reviews are claiming. Booking this course for anything under $25 is a good rate. If only they gave this baby some more love...

This course is on the Top 20 in NE Ohio list and rightfully so! The layout is exceptional, the course's conditions are exceptional. Like other reviews may say, there are some ball marks on the greens, but they do not take away from the speed and true roll of these excellent greens. I plan on playing this course consistently every season from now on!

The course conditions are pretty nice, as I did not have any problems with tees, fairways, or greens. My issue with the course is that I found myself hitting iron-wedge on multiple holes just because the hole would go 230 yards and then loop around some trees. If you don't have a range finder, it would be very difficult to tell how far you need to hit the ball to have a good approach shot. It's also a very short course measuring only 5800 yards from it's tips. I do not imagine myself playing here again for those reasons.

While I did enjoy my round, I though that some greens were inexplicably soft and slow given the stretch of four straight hot and dry days. That made it difficult to judge the speed. It was almost like they watered some greens but not all, because other greens were much drier. Everything else about the course was fine, however I do not picture myself returning solely because of the forty minute drive.

The course layout was fantastic. The conditions were also in very good shape. There was a delay once my group made the turn, with two groups in front of us, and the group behind us even pulled up before we teed off on 10. With that being said I look forward to returning to Raintree CC

My group paid $25 for 9 and a cart on a Friday morning and let me tell you it was the worst $25 I've ever spent. There are weeds growing on the tee boxes. The sand traps might as well be filled with mud. The holes are poorly designed. For God's sake one hole is shaped like the letter z, and another home has an elevation change like hitting into the grand canyon! There are so many better courses in the area to play before choosing this one, and most all of them are better priced as well!

I had an 8:07 tee time on a Thursday morning, inadvertently the same time as the ladies league was teeing off on the back 9. By the time I had play the first 9 holes (80 minutes or so) and expected to make the turn, the last group of women were teeing off. The starter was nice enough to allow me to go play 17 and 18 to clear some space between them and I. However, after playing 10 and 11, I got stuck behind TWO groups of ladies on 12. So I played 18 again, and then 9 again, and then 10 and 11 again. Eventually I was able to complete the back 9 in its entirety, but I definitely will avoid Thursday mornings.

As far as the course, the layout was decent. The greens seemed to be a bit off, as I had multiple putts going right at the hole and then decided to bounce off line within the last 6-8 inches! It was frustrating!

After all is said and done, I am willing to give this course another try on a different day!

Windmill Lakes lives up to its No. 2 in Ohio ranking. This course is an absolute pleasure to play, and every aspect of the course is delightful. If you can book a tee time here at a price below course rate, DO IT. Although the course is expensive, it is worth it. That's why I recommend trying to book through golfnow for a reduced rate. I played on a hot deal for $20! Regularly that would cost $47.50!

I played on what I expected to be a busy Sunday afternoon, but the pace of play was outstanding. No delays at all. The course is extremely well maintained. It is a bit pricey, so try to book a hot deal. I played for $30 for a day that usually would cost $47. I will continue to play this course throughout the summer as long as I can keep booking hot deals!

For my first time playing this course, I was extremely happy with Rolling Hills. I had a 25% off a hot deal coupon, which allowed me to book this tee time for around $12. The course is in surprisingly good shape and very well maintained. Fairways are neat and clean, and the greens run smooth and quick. The front 9 plays like a somewhat traditional course, but the back 9 gets nifty real quick. A lot of blind shots come in to play (more than I would prefer) and par 4's get really short (multiple under 300 yards). The only downside is that it's a 30 minute drive for me to play here. I would give five stars if the back 9 wasn't so unorthodox, but I guess that's half the fun! But for me to give a five star review I expect a course to be in remarkable condition likewise of a PGA course!

There is hardly any distinction between fairways and rough. Fairway grass is much longer than it should be. Greens are inconsistent. Course does not drain water well. I don't intend on playing this course again
