This course features narrow fairways. The Irwin Cobb Tournament is held here each June. The ladies' par is actually 76. The signature hole is #18, a 535-yard, par 5, requiring a tee shot between two massive oak trees in the center of the dogleg right fairway, while still avoiding the out-of-bounds stakes lining the left, then a second shot that must avoid the out-of-bounds stakes on the right and oak trees on the left, and finally an approach shot to a well-bunkered, elevated green.

A Classic Course, Mar 28, 2007

reviewer: Dr, T from Illinois

Truly a classic course, with a lot of history to it. The course is extremely challenging if your tee shot isn't in the fairway - lots of trees make it tough to get back to the green. It doesn't have a lot of the bells and whistles that newer golf courses have, but it's inexpensive and definately worth playing. Number 18 is a bear, even though it's easier now that the big tree in the middle of the fairway is gone.

Blue Heron Pines
"First time golfer"
First course I played since getting into golf, played 11 times. Lots of hazards and had fun playing. Would still be there except 60 par can't help building my handycap. A little costly for a exec course and for a new golfer, for the same or less you can play full 72.

Deer Lake Golf Course
"The New Management has made Deer Lake GREAT"
I've been a golfer for alomost 20 years now (in North East Ohio) and it always delights me to find a course like Deer Lake. This course changed management about 3 years ago and there have been MAJOR improvements. The fairways have a much more professional feel to them and the greens are now firm and entertaining. This course has come a long, long way in the last couple of years and the new management should be congradulated. Not only that but greens fees are the lowest that I've found in the area. When you go in ask Carlo, the owner, for some of his special chili.

River Forest Country Club
"what about the greens"
What makes river forest a difficult course is their greens.They can put the pin placements where it is possible to three and four putt greens even if you play it everyday.Slopping greens make every putt a challenge. They also have added a water hazard to #3 making it impossible to reach in 2.With the addition of new tee boxes and several holes with where you can knock it OB good luck for all you 10 handicappers to try and break 90 on you first couple rounds.
