Solitude Links Golf Course & Banquet Center

Course has a good layout but would be better if they cut the reeds down around the water ( understand that is not quick or easy to do) as I had a lot of blind shots to the green couldn’t see the green or the fairway, and pace of play was slow but it was a Saturday late morning tee off so that is to be expected.

Always a pleasure to challenge . Weeds were a little bit too high.

Waited every shot. Goose poop literally everywhere. Fairways full of divots. Geofencing alerts while on the cart path. Bunkers unplayable full of golf ball size rocks. Left after 9.

This course is situated in a perfect area with lots of water. The course was a bit beat up/neglected. In my opinion the golfers are placed too close together causes long wait times at every hole…. This was the longest round of golf I have ever played (5 hours). It’s hard to get into a rhythm when you have to wait at every single hole for one or two groups in front of you…. Frustrating.

I love the layout of this course. It’s a unique challenge that requires good shot planning. Course was in pretty nice shape, especially on and around the green. I can’t wait until I can come back!

This is a beautiful course. Challenging for sure. Well maintained for the most part. Bunkers need some serious attention. That aside, I would recommend this course to anyone.

My husband and I escape each Canadian Thanksgiving weekend for a weekend of golf and Solitude is a must stop at each year! The course is always in great shape - the staff are friendly and it offers both friendly and challenging shots. Highly recommend!

Got out after an outing …. No ranger to force pace of play seemed to have some slower groups ahead of me. A lot of waiting on tee boxes… paired myself up with another single on the back 9 to slow me down

Course & greens were in great shape. Got a great hot deal for Wednesday at 10am and played in 4 hours as 2 someone;. 15-20 minutes further but the price and condition make it worth it. Chris in pro shop great guy!

First time here, hubby and I drove a bit of a distance to try a new course, hopefully not as crowded as the courses close to us.

The phragmites were so tall and volumous that nearly every green was a blind shot. We lost at least a dozen balls. No rangers , so a entitled twosome behind use passed us up, and then we had to wait on them.

All the rest of the staff was very friendly.

Probably wouldn't play again bc of all the tall weeds that are supposedly protected.

Wonderful round on a perfect day. Only down side was my brother had difficulty driving this particular round and in a blind rage broke his his driver on the ground. He then pouted the rest of the game.

Five stars.

Have played this course intermittently over the many years since its inception as Fore Lakes. After today, I believe it will be the last time. The course is overrun with Phragmites. Roughly 2/3 of the holes now have blinded approach shots due to their overgrowth. Several tee boxes are unusable due to their height of the invasive weeds (see photos). The bridges look ready to collapse and geese and their leavings litter the course. This is a shame, since the track is challenging and the greens and approaches are in great shape. In several areas, tree limbs scrape the cart tops as you traverse the cart paths. The tee markers look like the position hasn’t been changed days, yet the rest of the tee box looks almost pristine. Lots of rocks in the bunkers, where patrons believe raking is optional. The16th green is virtually invisible from all but the blue/black tees. Green tees are not hittable. Cart attendant out front watched us unload bags from car and load on a cart as he worked his phone over from his perch. A nice course now home to Phragmites and geese.
