About Manakiki Golf Course

Manakiki Golf Course in Willoughby, Ohio is one of northeastern Ohio's most historic and beloved public golf facilities, operated by the Cleveland Metroparks system at 35501 Eddy Road. Designed by Donald Ross and opened in 1928, Manakiki is a crown jewel of Cleveland's extraordinary Metroparks golf system, offering a genuine Donald Ross design at public rates in one of Greater Cleveland's most charming Lake County settings. The course features the classic Ross hallmarks — crowned greens, natural fairway contours, and strategic bunkering that demand precise shot-making and reward sound course management. Set in a mature woodland landscape above the Chagrin Valley, Manakiki provides a historic golf experience connecting players to one of golf architecture's greatest masters. The Metroparks system maintains the course to an exceptional standard, making it one of the best public golf values in all of Ohio.
