About

Located on the outskirts of the southwestern city of Guelph, Ariss Valley Golf & Country Club offers 27 holes of scenic golf that sprawl across a rolling landscape of trees and ponds. The Willows golf course is one of the three nine-hole courses at the club. The Willows features an abundance of trees that demand accuracy and keen course management. Water hazards come into play on a few holes and there are also strategically placed, Ohio white sand bunkers throughout the course. Ariss Valley Golf & Country Club's Willow course offers a fair challenge, but it is also approachable for beginning and intermediate players. The other two golf courses provide plenty of other golfing options as well.

End of Season Round

It was a beautiful day. As a result, the course was busy. Everyone trying to take advantage of the warm Sept weather. Tee boxes a bit run down now. A few greens in bad shape with lots of unrepaired ball marks. Notwithstanding these comments it was a great day of golf even though it was a bit slow. I would still go back. It is reasonably priced for the caliber of course

Excellent first time at Ariss

I never played here before. The course is beautiful. Other courses are a little shorter from the white tees but this is still manageable.

Good value for the money.

I will be back.

It’s fairly average value and experience

The course is mostly average. The conditions were fine, some course are better some worse for the same price. The the layout was okay, actually I liked that more than some more expensive courses like Dragon or Hidden Valley. I feel like Ariss delivers what it promises. A decent enough course at a reason price.

Nice Course

I like this course. Good value. We were one of the first off the tee in the morning so the round went fast. 3.25hr round. It was a bit disorganized in the morning though. They could have started getting prepared 30min earlier. We tee’d off about 30min after sunrise. Regardless, still a nice course at a reasonable price.
