Black Gold Golf Club

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 h…

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!

Rough is juicy, and weed free! Beautiful course! Money being invested in all the right places! Need this guy to buy Black diamond down the road, and give it the same love he shows this place!! Play this place you'll love it!!

Great experience per usual, wide open layout with tough sloping greens. We were given free hot dogs and chips at the turn which was awesome. My one complaint is that the greens were aerated in early August, which was a bit disappointing.

We have a group of guys every year, we have this Golf Course on our schedule we play about 12 courses throughout the year and we always come back to this one. The staff is so polite can’t say enough never once had an issue. The course is in tiptop shape. they take really good pride in their job. See you guys soon.

I've been golfing here for years. The layout and conditions are always excellent. However, a small group of us came down and played a few days ago. I love fast greens but these were ridiculous for the undulations that the greens have and they were very difficult to hold, unless hitting high wedges into them. I do recommend coming here because of the great links style course and the staff is always pleasant. Theres also an excellent restaurant on premises.

It’s a fine golf course but it has a lot of dead areas,verry open and hot. Good luck I did not have much luck here

Great experience. Worth the drive for me once or twice a season. Not sure how they feel about outings but the layout makes me think it'd be fantastic for them.

Ignore the negative reviews. I've had issues at other courses with maintenance crews and long rounds. This course is terrific, and absolute hidden gem. In very good shape from tee to green. Maintenance people working through out the course to keep it in shape. A fair test, play it from the correct tees and your fine. I just wish it was closer. It's a 1hr 20 min. from me. The new owner has done a terrific job and put alot of money into this course and you can tell.
