Lake Erie Metropark Golf Course
About Lake Erie Metropark Golf Course
Lake Erie Metropark Golf Course sits amid water and natural wetlands, with water in play on nearly every hole. Designed by Sue Nyquist and built in 1994, the par-72 layout measures 6,489 yards and places a premium on accuracy in avoiding its hazards.
Four sets of tees stretch from roughly 5,100 to 6,500 yards, taking players across rolling fairways with open views of the surrounding landscape. The signature hole is the par-3 sixth, which calls for a tee shot played over water.
Located in the downriver area, the course offers a putting green and driving range, along with grill and beverage service.
