I forgot to post my review in the season but I played a 6.5 hour round behind a man and his 4 sons. His sons aged from 3-7 years old I would say. They all played their own ball, which I’m all for teaching the youth the game, on the range, or maybe getting a shot or two in, or putting on the greens even. But every shot? And no, not playing off the fathers shot. Imagine croquette, now imagine the worst croquette you’ve ever seen. I drove 2 hours to watch 800 strokes of golf? No one to control pace, no one to say hey 5 people can’t all play golf out of ONE cart! Really disappointed as I’ve went here an handful of times and will never waste my time again. Also (this is 100% my fault) but left my Scotty head cover at the green, no one turned it in as you’d expect. I’ve left head covers all over and call the clubhouse and get it back. Idk if the area is known for thieves or what

8/23/24- first time, drove hour and 20 min. Been on the list for a bit. Wow, this course is unbelievable. Greens were so fast and pure. This place is beautiful. Tee boxes in perfect shape, fairways immaculate, rough nice and juicy, bunkers gorgeous shape and sand. This being a public course is incredible. If you’re on the fence about checking it out, do it. Period. Simple driving range, nice clubhouse. Awesome carts w great gps and yardage. I will be returning, the views here are incredible.

Played April 17, 2025 - course was in fantastic condition. Greens were super smooth, fast, and no ball marks! In my opinion, best public greens, hands down in Northeast Ohio. Sand traps were excellent. Tee boxes pristine! Kudos to the ground crew. The layout is super fun (not overwhelmingly challenging). There is also a Mexican restaurant attached to the pro shop. Third time playing, keeps getting better. Drive 1 hr 10 minutes. Worth it.

Course was in great shape, but what needs talked about is the restaurant in the clubhouse. Habaneros is a bit out of place but the patio and bar area outside are fabulous. Food was hot and excellent. Lunch specials were 8 bucks and you get 20% off of you show your receipt from the golf course. Greens on the course were cut super fast despite being aerated a couple weeks ago. Don’t sleep on this place. Great golf and great food.

Played Black Gold 4-17-25 and it was in fantastic shape. Probably the best public greens I've ever played. They were smooth, firm, and quick. The fairways and tee boxes were amazing as well. We had about a 45 minute frost delay, but the staff kept us updated while we waited and putted on the practice green. The staff was great! Would highly recommend this course to anyone looking for a top notch public facility. Definitely 5 stars!
