What a shame....

This place used to be a great local place to play. Back in the day with on cart GPS and beautiful sand traps. Now it's so overbooked you need at least 5 hours to play a round and a helmet to make sure you don't get knocked out by a stray ball. Kid behind the counter seems annoyed to be there almost as much as I was after 3 holes. Score cards are now printed off a black and white printer as if you're at a cheap put put course. I'm skeptical this place will be open much longer given the rapid downward spiral.

A true must play course if you plan to play in NE Ohio

Excellent course layout, the conditions were great, the weather was phenomenal, the pace of play was good, and we even had a Jimmy Hanlin sighting on hole #7. I probably have him to thank for the 30 foot birdie putt I drained. For $42 with a cart you really can’t do any better. Will definitely be back.

A shell of itself

Course and amenities have gotten consistently worse since i started playing course 10 years ago. They got rid of the cart GPS. They got rid of the ball and club washers on the carts. The bathrooms on the course are non functional and they just parked porta-potties in front of them. Recently they were basically giving away memberships in a money grab. Now the pace of play is always horrible and there are a bunch of hacks everywhere. The clubhouse staff is not friendly and when I went to pay for my round last time i was informed that our tee time was double-booked. A course that used to be a top 3 in our group's rotation is now a last resort.

Expected better

I’m really not sure what happened Saturday. I booked my tee time at 9:48am and the starter wouldn’t let my 2 some go out before the “outing” of 5 foursomes even though we were ready and the outing was late to get started. We ended up teeing off at 10:15. The pace of play was the worst I’ve ever experienced there. At the turn I found out why. There was a sixsome two groups in front of me. I alerted the starter. He caught up to the group on the 12th tee and did not break them up. He told me that there were way too many people on the course that day. I’m sorry but that’s not my fault and I specifically get early tee times to avoid 5 hour rounds. I was very disappointed ended up with a 5.5 hour round. The course itself is in good condition and the greens were nice and fast.

Nice course

Everything was excellent, aside from a twosome in front of us, father son, played extremely slow as the father was attempting to teach his son to play. God conditions. Fast greens everything was cut very good.

Bill from Akron

Little Mountain is a premier course unfortunately last Saturday it was in terrible condition. The greens were freshly irritated and sandy almost unputtable. They failed to indicate this when I booked the TTime. The bunkers were unraked and in poor condition. I know it’s early spring but most courses have done at minimal maintenance to there courses. We will probably not go back until July or August. Hopefully the course will be back to its premier condition.

I don't recommend

My tee time was pushed back without notice. We waited every shot on every hole. We don't like playing 6 hour rounds. I won't play this course again.
They were aerating the tees and they left the plugs. Had to clean an area to tee from. Not to mention the mud on your spikes.

BAD SHAPE

Course is usually in great shape, was surprised to see all the bare spots in the middle of some fairways...
Pace was the biggest issue today, they had a scramble start at 145 and we had a tee time at 151....round took 5hrs since there was no marshal pushing the pace in a best ball scramble...smh
I think courses should post on their website if they are hosting a scramble, and who does a scramble start that late in the afternoon...poor course management with that call...

Great course.

Well maintained and fun to play. The course was in great condition and the pace of play was 4 hours. By the way, at the parking lot they addressed me by my name which was nice because it was my only second time playing there this year. Go play the course! I highly recommend it.

A gem in Concord, Ohio

A great golf course in Norteast Ohio. Layout is outstanding. Good shots are rewarded while errant shots will cost you. Bunkered throughout the greens rolled true and the fairways are generous. I’ve played in every area of the country and always enjoy returning to this gem.

Steady decline

This course used to be a gem but apparently they aren’t investing in the course anymore. Tee boxes were hard as a rock, rough was patchy and burnt out, fairways were underwhelming. Greens and bunkers were finally in good shape again. On course restrooms were closed and replaced with port o potties. Overall this was very sad to see, this course has a great design but poor management and no investment in the course was evident. Many better courses around for the same or less than little mountain charges. Jimmy Hanlin should be ashamed to have his name tied to this course.

Nice layout

First time playing LM. It was wet, so cart path only...and very slow. The course was in great shape, considering the rains, but the deep bunkers hadn't dried yet, so they are hard to judge. It's a challenging layout for not being all that long. The greens had been top dressed which was disappointing...but they still held well and putted true if a bit slow. I'll give it another try
