About Highland Park Golf Course
Highland Park Golf Course sits in the village of Highland Hills and is owned by the City of Cleveland, giving it a municipal pedigree along with a notable competitive history. The course hosted the Cleveland Open in the mid-1960s, drawing players such as Arnold Palmer, Jack Nicklaus and Gary Player, and it is also remembered as the place where Cleveland native Bob Hope first took up the game.
The facility comprises two 18-hole layouts, known as the red course and the blue course. The blue course features open views and well-kept fairways and greens, with a test that remains approachable for a range of skill levels.
