About this course

Chenoweth Golf Course is a public facility in Akron, Ohio, designed by Rick Todd and opened in the early 1990s. The course serves the greater Akron community as an accessible municipal option, part of the city's network of public golf facilities. Todd, an Ohio-based architect, designed the layout to fit the rolling terrain characteristic of northeastern Ohio's glacially-shaped landscape. The course occupies land that features moderate elevation changes and mature tree corridors typical of the region. The routing works through wooded sections and more open areas, creating variety in hole character and shot requirements. Water features come into play on several holes, and the design incorporates the natural drainage patterns of the property. The layout provides a straightforward test suitable for recreational golfers while offering enough challenge to engage more experienced players. Chenoweth operates as a daily-fee course and serves a broad cross-section of Akron-area golfers. The facility includes practice areas and a clubhouse with basic amenities. As a municipal course, it plays a role in making golf accessible to residents who might not have access to private club options. The course reflects the practical design approach common to public golf in mid-sized American cities during its era of construction, balancing playability with maintenance efficiency.

Getting there

Chenoweth Golf Course lies in the northern reaches of Akron, most easily accessed via Cleveland Hopkins International Airport (CLE), roughly forty minutes north along Interstate 77. The drive south traces the industrial spine of Northeast Ohio before easing into Akron's quieter residential corridors, where the course occupies a modest, tree-lined parcel just off North Main Street. This is municipal golf in its most unpretentious form - no grand gates or sweeping entrance drives, just a straightforward turn into a neighborhood layout that has served the community for generations.
