Ariss Valley Golf & Country Club, located in southwestern Ontario on the outskirts of Guelph, offers three different nine-hole golf courses. All 27 holes stretch across a beautiful rolling landscape that is dotted with large ponds. The land is also densely forested, making shot accuracy integral in doing well. The Valley's creek also meanders through several holes. Each golf course at Ariss Valley Golf & Country Club is uniquely designed to offer a variety of different challenges. The Lakes Course, as its name implies, features plenty of water hazards. There are also strategically placed, Ohio white sand bunkers to be cautious of. Although it has a good amount of challenges, players of all skill levels will enjoy the golf courses at Ariss Valley Golf & Country Club.

Nice rural course

Ariss Valley GC is a scenic course with no shortage of water hazards. My round occurred after an extended dry spell so the fairways were hard and fast. The greens contained a fair bit of dry patches, so irrigation might be a problem at this time of year. Nevertheless, an enjoyable round.

Perfect day

Course in good shape, fairways fast, greens receptive to shots. Front nine was a little slow having to wait on every tee.

Golf

Just a shame how this course has deteriorated since golf north took over. Tee blocks are in terrible shape greens are burnt off and all green approaches are weed infested. Have played this course many times over the years and find it so sad how it has fallen down. I know no one cares but we will not be back and will not encourage others to play there.

Tee blocks like cement

The course has improved considerably since last year, however the tee blocks need watering, on some it was well near impossible to get the tee into the ground

Greens

The greens were adequate and nice and soft.

They were spoiled however by people not repairing their ball marks. On one green I repaired at least twentyand that was just ehere I was putting!

The tee boxes were also inundated with broken tees that inconsiderate people ( I can't call them golfers) not removind them or at least placing them near the markers.

Good track, Average Maintenaince

The course was an interesting track. Too bad it was only par 35 on each of the nines, you'd like to se another par 5, but all the holes were appropriately challenging for a shorter course. The fairway wasn't cut much different from the rough, but the greens were in good shape (although lots of unfixed ballmarks...not the course's fault...but the fault of golfers.)

Golf

Have played this course before and think it is a real shame how it has deteriorated in the past two years since golf north became involved. Greens are burnt off lay up areas full of weeds and appears corners have been cut and maintanance has suffered. Tee blocks are almost unplayable and appears no efforts made to improve. Just too bad used to be a great place to place but will not be back

Wouldn’t take much to improve

The tee decks are a dirty mess. How hard is it to fill some divots and grow new grass??? Also bunkers are running low on sand and greens have somehow got some burned off patches. $43 is priced right.

Beautiful and challenging

Absolutely beautiful course for the region. It has everything you want from long fairways to tight isolated by water par 3s. Friendly staff, friendly patrons and well maintained course. I am thrilled to go back again.

Good Value

Purchased the 2 for 1 deal last winter. At that price it is good value. The location is good for my situation.

The course layout is fine. My major complaint is the tee boxes.

They need some maintenance.
