General Manager
About The City of Toledo Golf Courses:
The City of Toledo is the proud provider of three historic municipal golf courses – Ottawa Park Golf Course, Detwiler Park Golf Course and Collins Park Golf Course.
Ottawa Park was built in 1899 and has a rich history including hosting the first ever USGA National Public Links Championship in 1922. At just over 5,000 yards, the tree-lined parkland design isn’t the longest course around but has charming character to its doglegs which require thoughtful tee shots. Detwilier Park was built by Toledo’s own Arthur Hills in 1971 featuring a modern layout with rolling hills, mature trees and plush greens. The location on the Maumee Bay and adjacent to point place lighthouse gives the property a distinct lakeside feel. Collins Park Golf Course, which has been in operation since 1932, is an interesting layout featuring a rolling perimeter. The course plays at a par 36 and 3,015 yards from the longest tees.
We are committed to providing an exceptional experience to ALL golfers through creating community access, engaging hospitality and better course conditions.
