Opened in 1916 as a nine-hole course, Fostoria Golf Club is one of the oldest courses in northwest Ohio. It has seen many changes over the years but through it all, the course has become one of the area's finest public venues, boasting some of the best greens you'll find in northwest Ohio. One of the biggest changes to the golf course occurred in 1971 when Ohio native Jack Kidwell redesigned and expanded the layout to a full 18 holes. The course will test you with strategically placed bunkers and water hazards, which include a meandering creek that cuts across three different fairways. The narrow, tree-lined fairways will further test your accuracy. Though Fostoria Golf Club dates back to the turn of the century, the amenities are completely modern, most notably the GPS-equipped golf carts that provide precise distance information.
