I try not to give 5 stars away lightly but this is my favorite public course in the Greater Cleveland area. If I had to I could write a couple pages on Fowlers but that doesn't make for light reading so I'll attempt to be brief.
A Pete Dye design - the only one in the area. Fowlers has the classic railroad ties and 2 holes with split fairways. It is an old private course and can get expensive for the area on the weekends but for the most part you can find a decent price for how good the course is. I estimate that I have played about 100 public courses in Ohio and I think this is the second best, runner-up to only Longaberger which is 50 in the US.
The course is usually in good condition, but it does get a lot of play. I have been out there a few times where the greens don't run as pure as they should. A couple of the holes are pretty average but that is really my only gripe. The course can back up to over 7,000 which can make for a challenge. The course requires a couple drives and second shots to have a cut or draw.
You have a shot to get home on the par 5's if you can hit it long and move it from right to left - or you can play them honest and attempt to make 4 the old fashion way. That's what I like about this course and all Pete Dye's. If you hit good shots you will be rewarded, if you don't you will probably struggle to make par, and at the end of the day you can only really blame yourself. Course knowledge and knowing where to leave the ball will help you throughout the round.
