The Greens!

I am a huge fan or this course, but make sure you KEEP IT BELOW THE HOLE! The greens are lightning quick. The ball will easily roll off the green if your not careful

Perfect day for golf, some wicked, borderline unplayable, pin locations

First time playing Chardon Lakes and it won't be the last. Course was in GREAT shape. Tight fairways on some shots, and some holes, especially #7, nearly unplayable pin locations. Greens were rolling fast and pure though so the issue was merely where the pin was placed, nothing more. Speaking of putting, this course will test your putting skills give breaks and contours.

Pace of play was 4 hours for 18.

Good test of one's skills!

The course was in excellent shape even after the rain. Damp/soggy in places, but overall drained very well. Enjoyed my round, some holes were very challenging, while others had "blind " tee shots. Greens were in excellent condition; I would definitely play again!!

Staff was nice

Excellent course in very good condition.

We always enjoy playing Chardon Lakes as it is scenic and challenging, but at the same time very playable. This summer the weather has affected some of the fairways, as it has been wet and hot, a combination that that leads to some brown patches resulting from standing water. Fortunately the greens haven't suffered. The course is well maintained and the staff are very friendly.

Beautiful Day on wet course

Golfing was fun on such a beautiful day! Play was cart path only so alot of walking on wet roughs and fairways. It was crowded but pace wasn’t too bad. We had to wait to tee off on several holes but not for long. Always enjoy this course!
