I Recommend This Course
Wasn’t allowed to finish
Mandatory carts be returned at 8:20 pm. Started at 6:20. Starter allowed a 5 some to go off in front of us. Ridiculous thing to do for a twilight tee time. Had to rush to make 8 holes. Marshalls driving around telling us to enjoy our last hole as carts have to be turned in at 8:20.

Very Well Maintained Public Course
Other than the gnats on every tee box and green the course is very well maintained! Really good value for the money. Just need to find some way of fixing the gnat problem.

Ron
I held a rain check for nine holes from the previous 18 holes that I paid for, they then charged me close to $30 to play the nine holes I already played for
Seemed like a bit of a rip off and double charging
Wouldn’t recommend playing there if you don’t think complete your round

Return to Algonkian
Haven’t played this course in over two years. I was surprised as to how good the course conditions were. I will definitely return. As a senior, I played the “Green” tees which is a white/gold hybrid. There are a number of holes where these tee boxes are a huge advantage over a straight up white tee box.
