Tarandowah Golfers Club
Rating Snapshot
About
Tarandowah Golfers Club has a unique layout that closely resembles traditional Scottish links golf courses. There are undulating greens and sloped fairways that are made up of bentgrass and wispy fescue. Although there are no water hazards, Tarandowah Golfers Club boasts more than 100 deep, sod-faced bunkers that prove to be just as challenging if not more. Strong winds blow through the golf course, a factor that will affect your game if not careful. Tarandowah Golfers Club has several tricky uphill par 4s, but its longest and one of its more challenging holes is the par-5 14th, which stretches to 588 yards.

Golf Advisor: Top Courses in Canada (2022 #25)

(Disappointed) Ranked 68 in Canada 2024? That’s a joke
Nothing really special about this course other than the pothole bunkers. Looked more like a goat pasture. But if you like the view of a bunch of farm land, there’s plenty of that.
Not much of a clubhouse for something this highly ranked.
No maintenance done at the driving range. No good grass to hit off of (thank goodness it was complimentary)
The fairways were hard as a rock. Greens were in good shape. Staff is friendly - no issues there.
If you’re a high handicap golfer, you will probably like this course, but low handicap golfers will definitely question how this course is ranked in the top 100.
If you’re coming from out of town, there are probably some better options to choose from but if you want to try it out, prepare to be disappointed.
Nice Course
Ground was a bit hard, challenging course. Had a different type of sand in bunkers which provided a new challenge. Nice Layout.
Pace of play no marshall to be found
Played yesterday and the course was super dry
Greens are fast
One of my longest round waiting almost 5-10 minutes at each tee box
No marshall to be found
fun links course
like a links course should be if you can't be seaside - firm fairways , fescue grasses instead of rough , plenty of deep bunkers, and lots of curves on the greens .
true links feeling
If you ever want to try or play a links course, you can with this course. Fun to play, challenging yet forgiving. Great for all levels!
Gem of a course in Southwestern Ontario
This course is a hidden gem in Avon Ontario. it is a great links style course - I play it every time I make my way to London to visit my in-laws. Highly recommended!!
Challenging and frustrating
The good:
The course was beautiful and the weather was nice! The staff were friendly and helpful and the driving range was nice and close to the starting point.
The bad:
The bunkers sand was about as hard as cement, the tee blocks broke 3 tees just trying to put them in, one of the holes is almost on the end of the driving range, our cart was hit with 2 balls from the range while driving on the fairway.
The understandable:
The greens, I understand the course is meant to be difficult but I found the greens were incredibly hard to judge and there is no consistency across the course on this.
Overall:
I enjoyed the views and spending time with friends. There were just too many factors that were outside my control that made the game difficult.
love it
If you want to experience golf in Great Britain save yourself the cash and play Tarandowah. Great track in marvelous shape.
Beautiful links
This course is a great layout of narrow fairways and amazing bunkers. Well kept up grounds. You have to be on top of your game on this course. It ate us all up but loved playing it. All the staff was friendly and helpful.
Links style with a challenge
Hidden gem of a course. Great staff and friendly. Worth every penny. Course was in amazing condition, greens were rolling fast. Course will challenge you make good shot decision's and shot placement . Fairway is always your friend but here it really really is. The fescue will punish you or eat your ball. Can’t wait to come back and play it again. The sausages/hotdogs at the halfway hut were freshly cooked on the BBQ!!
