Ariss Valley Golf and Country Club - Willows Course
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.

Arris’s Valley
A lot of blind tee shots and approach shots into very oversized greens that have a lot of undulating features.
This course appears to have been built as a members course and it requires a lot of local knowledge in order to play it well. You will lose alot of balls because you are hitting off a tee not knowing what hazards or bunkers are just off the fairway. You need to keep the tee shot in the fairway and understand where to put your ball on the green. They could save a lot of money in maintenance if they reduced a lot of the greens by 60%. Public players want courses that are fun to play and have no hidden tricks or slopes. As far as the current course conditions you can tell that they are struggling to make ends meet.
Make the course more fun to play and more golfers will pay green fees, buy food and drinks. More information needs to be posted on the tee about how the hole is to be played successfully.
not most expensive and that'sgood
fast speed of play on Wednesday, washroom clean, no showers, I score par with last chip into hole, zero putting. memrable round
Ariss
Greens need some work but lots of maintenance
Staff working on the course. Played the lakes nine for the back nine which was very nice
Worth the money
Thoroughly enjoyable. Course and greens in great condition. Friendly helpful staff. Well worth the money.
Played Willow & Pines
Enjoyed our round
Lots of elevation friendly fairways and big greens with some levels to hit up too
Will be back hopefully two or three times more
Pleasant surprise!
I wasn't expecting a lot. My son's first round of the year so I wanted something easy. I was surprised the course was nice. I was expecting a hack course for the price. I will go again. All staff were very nice!!!
this course was too wet
most of hole was too wet
we moved ball to little bit dry place
some holes can't walk
my shoes was mud and wet
they need drainage system
maybe they consider open or delay
