Great Option for the Money

We got rained out the day before on another course and booked Leopards Chase at the last minute. We were pleasantly surprised at the condition of the course. The layout is challenging but remains fun. Several holes are picturesque but the 18th stands out due to the falls. Based on the cost of other courses in the area, we found this to be well worth the money.

Nice Coures

I enjoyed playing Loepards Chase. I can't remember hitting out of more sand in a round.

The course's Bermuda was still dormant as all area courses was winter golf. Next time I play this course I will know the targets to hit to.

4 hour round.

Tough course, great conditions, slow pace of play

We played this course for the first time on 2-15-24. It was in great shape for this time of the year. The greens rolled nice, fairways and tee boxes were in good shape. There are several very picturesque holes on the course. The pace of play however was a bit frustrating. We had to wait 5 minutes + on every hole to tee off. It's tough to get in any kind of groove when you are left twiddling your thumbs on every hole. We only saw the cart gal on the second hole, which is a bit unfortunate as we definitely would have utilized her later in the round. We would definitely return, just hope the pace would be better.

Thank you for the very nice Four Star review of Leopard's Chase. We truly appreciate your patronage and your feedback. We apologize for the pace of play issue you described. This is the beginning of our busiest season and Saturday is our busiest day of the week, so pace can often be slower on these very busy days. I will speak to our golf director and see if there were any issues on that particular day that we can try to adjust to improve the pace of play. Thank you again and we hope you will visit us again soon and see our continued progress.

Chilly Chase

48 degrees.... not the ideal temp for golf, but with a cart cover and heater, PERFECT!! Greens were slow, but understandable for this time of year. The rest of the course was in really good shape, but the best part was I think we were the only two on the course!!! It was a pace of play dream, and our reward for braving the weather! Thank you for staying open, Leopards Chase!!

Another Gem

1st time playing this course.

Will i return ? yeah for sure.

Even though it is just over an hour drive

I absolutely will go back to Leopards chase.

From the minute i got there till the time i left the smile on my face was constant.

I am a 14 handicap at home. If i played here all the time not even sure i would be under 18.

Difficult course absolutely.

Fun to play absolutely.

Beautiful course absolutely.

I will return soon to try again .

Tony in the pro shop was super friendly at check in.

Leopards chase you made this Canadian super happy.

Loved it.Definitely a must play if you can play. Sorry beginners not for you.
