New Clubhouse for Fairways at Twin Lakes

The are undergoing some massive changes to start this season, including a new clubhouse, improved drainage, more parking and the return of the restaurant and banquet services.

Bulldozers are moving dirt on the site of the new clubhouse, which will stand across Overlook Road from the original main building. The log cabin style structure will include three levels and a deck with parking, pro shop and a bar.

Chris Plute, director of golf at the public course, said their goal is to open the new clubhouse by Aug. 10 in time for a golf invitational for the Kent Roosevelt girls team and 10 other schools.

"We're hoping it's done for that," Plute said.

The new clubhouse will bring with it about 70 new parking spaces. The course only lost its original practice putting green as a result of construction, but Plute said they have a practice green set up on the restaurant side of the course and a new one will be built after the clubhouse is finished.

The course will open later this week for the season, and other improvements that owners David and Ray Beck have made include new drains in the areas of holes two, three and four.

Also this year full-service restaurant and banquet services returned to the original clubhouse.
