The return of autumn brings cooler temperatures, changing
scenery and lower golf fees at Cleveland Metroparks golf
courses.  That's right - starting Tuesday, October 12, the
Fall Discount Rates take effect at all seven Cleveland Metroparks
golf courses.  But, the lower golf scores are still up to the
individual golfers!

And, the fall season is a great time to get in some golf rounds
at any of the Park District's seven courses.  The temperatures
are cooler, the courses are less crowded, and the scenery around
the links is breathtaking!  And, with the lower greens fees -
who wouldn't want to play a few last rounds before the winter
season sets in?

The courses are open from dawn to dusk through December, weather
permitting.

while getting the tee time - again, at no cost. 

Tee time reservations are recommended at the
18-hole courses through November, and can be made up to five days
