Toronto is the New York City of Canada. This means people either love it because it is busy, exciting, and diverse, or hate it because it is chaotic, loud, and crowded. Toronto is the center of Canadian finance, theater, sports, education, art, and cuisine: take in a Broadway-caliber show, head to the top of the CN Tower, or visit one of the dozens of art and history museums.
Golfers at Wooden Sticks Golf Club may have a hard time believing they're on the same course from start to finish. Holes inspired by those on the world's most famous courses - from St. Andrew's to Augusta - are interspersed with architect Ron Garl's originals. Wooden Sticks is part of Greater Toronto's Highland Golf Trail, and offers upscale play on a gently undulating landscape.
Planning a drive-to golf vacation from Toronto is not easy. But there are plenty of destinations to choose from, spring through fall, within a six-hour drive.
There are two golf courses at Lionhead, Legends and Masters. Legends stretches to 7,198 yards and plays to a brutal slope rating of 153. The USGA's scale only goes up to 155.

Golfers here are strongly encouraged to play the golds or blues, both still a formidable test. Architect Ted Baker simply says he intended to design the course where "par is elusive.
Wooden Sticks Golf Club in the greater Toronto area features a collection of holes inspired by the most famous holes in golf, as well as some original designs by architect Ron Garl. The golf course is in an upscale property that receives a lot of corporate play during the week and features five sets of tees, a large clubhouse and superb conditioning.
