The Pines is one of three nine-hole courses at Ariss Valley Golf & Country Club, which is located on the outskirts of Guelph. The Pines golf course shares a heavily forested landscape that is dotted with large ponds with the other two courses, the Willows and the Lakes. There is also a creek that winds through several holes. In addition to the water hazards coming into play, the Pines course also features several strategically placed, Ohio white sand bunkers. Each golf course at Ariss Valley Golf & Country Club is uniquely designed to offer a great variety of interesting par 3s, par 4s, and par 5s. The golf courses offer something for players of every skill level

The price was right. The greens need some work that will improve as the good weather comes. The layout is tricky especially on the "the pines". Once again the price is right

Nice layout but ground is really dry

Had a great day, but I’ve never seen tee boxes where the ground is so hard you can snap a tee trying to insert it into the ground.

Step up the greens

I generally like this course throughout the year but they’ve really got to do something about the greens during this fall season. They’re incredibly inconsistent, cut too long, and trimmings left right on the putting surface. I’ll play again eventually but between the tee boxes and greens I’m done for this year.

Decent value

Overall the course was decent value for the money. Greens grass was longer than normal, causing greens to be very slow. Dead spots

On greens on a few holes. Tee boxes and some fairways need to be repaired but can be expected this late in the season.

Dry hard as a rock dirty bouncy greens

Arrived at 1040am, marshalls circling us hole after hole. they were moving the green holes at 11am. Greens were bouncy and not cleaned off, chunks of grass everywhere. Tboxes unkept, no divot sand tons if divots no grass, ground was hard as a rock, very dissapointing to see such a scenic course in the shape it was in given all the water hazards and plenty of water sources. Appears someone lost the key for the sprinkle system.

Rating Course

This course is an excellent layout. However, the fairways were badly damaged. Appeared to be lack of watering. There was plenty of rain this summer so this was unusual. Sand traps were very hard no grooming. Greens were good with some damaged areas but very nice. All in all the course is very challenging to play and with a little TLC it could be a GREAT Course.
