Shaker Run

Shaker Run is one of the highest rated public courses in OHIO. It is built through nature, not a housing development like so many other courses. It is beautiful scenery and nature at its best. There is a large lake behind the clubhouse that comes into play on several holes. The last hole on the two original nines requires a drive over the lake. Both holes then follow the lake to the green. One goes left, the other right. The course will test all your skills. It is very popular in this area. It also is part of the eagle pass, see my previous post Crooked

.

I've heard stories of golfers seeing a diver in the water, gathering up all the many balls that fall short. Imagine that, a golf ball that finds water. Shaker has three nine hole courses. The original two are Lakeside and Woodlands. The newer nine is called Meadows and is not near as popular as the original 18. The intent is for them to build homes in the Meadows. They recently built three swimming pools close to the large clubhouse. The clubhouse is great for parties, weddings, receptions, and the like. I played the original 18 on July 27, 2008. There was a wedding reception going in the clubhouse as we made the turn.
