Some golf courses are best left in the hands of families. So it is with Skyland Golf Course, bordered by farms on three sides and a two-lane blacktop on the fourth. The third generation of Rhodes Boys now sits on the tractor, formally schooled in course maintenance, and informally schooled in customer service. In some ways, it's an average course. Slope is 116, length is 6115, and par is 72. In more ways, it's pretty special. The course has been featured on Fox8, and been the subject of golf stories in Crain's Cleveland Business and the Cleveland Golfer's Bible (Gray & Co. Publishers.) The ashes of more than one player are sprinkled on the course.
