The Elms Country Club
About The Elms Country Club
The Elms Country Club is a public parkland course in the Massillon area of northeast Ohio, playing to 6,810 yards from its expanded back tees. The layout features gently rolling, manicured fairways, quick greens built in a classic style, and lakes that open up views across the property.
The course was originally laid out in the 1920s as a private club. Several rounds of renovation since then have modernized the playing surfaces and tee boxes while retaining the character of the original design.
The Elms hosts the Tigertown Open, a one-day tournament that annually attracts as many as 180 professional and amateur players from the surrounding region.
