About
Settler’s Ghost Golf Club is located just outside of Barrie on what was formerly an important Huron Indian settlement. The golf course is an homage to the former inhabitants of the land, including the Huron Indians and emigrants from the British Isles. The golf course was built to maintain the historical integrity and scenic features of the rustic, rolling landscape. The dramatic elevations throughout the course offer stunning panoramic views of the Niagara Escarpment and the Georgian Bay. Settler’s Ghost Golf Club is relatively short at 6,311 yards from the back tees, but there are still some lengthy shots that will appeal to long hitters, including the par-5 eighth, which stretches to 539 yards.

Golfer Reviews
Always a fun round
The Ghost has become our weekly course of play.
Always on good shape and fun to play.
A member of our group this well used to play on so. Mini tours so we were interested in his opinion of the course.
We played the gold tees and he shot par. Even though the course was short for him he said the greens were as tough as some of the TOUR courses he had played. He also commented that the greens rolled true and were in great shape.
He agreed the the greens were tough to hold as their fast but also because you're hitting down hill to so many of them.
Will play again for sure
Always a pleasure
Course always in great shape!! The greens were a little harder than normal which made it extremely difficult to hold the greens. Always a great course to play
Course in good shape but ....
I've played this course quite a few times this season and as always the greens ate my putter up lol
If you drive the ball over 200 yards don't play the white tees. I always play golds and blues but since the two guys I got joined up with were playing whites, I decided to try the white tees. Except for the first and fifth holes, I hit a 52, 56, or 60 degree wedge to every hole (including the two par threes)
My only issue was with the starter. She hooked me up with two other golfers to play. I found out on the 7th hole that they were only playing 9 holes. When we finished the 9, I went to the starter and asked her what I should do because the back was filled with foursomes. She told me I could play the front nine again. I chose to go home instead lol
Always a good round.
Course is in great shape except for the traps. Played with members and they said it's a continuing complaint of there's.
Greens roll true and always have tough pin placements. Be in your game.
Great value for the hot deal price we paid.
Play early as pace of play slows as more female members show up. It's not a knock on female golfers but more a comment based on course difficulty.
Great golf course
I play here often and always enjoy the course. Challenging for anyone I golf with. Always well maintained. Easily a favourite of mine
Settlers
Course was in good condition. Bunkers need more sand and greens were nice and quick but way to firm and not very receptive to the ball. Otherwise course is nice.
Family Perfect
I have golfed here before and thoroughly enjoyed. My son and grandson were visiting from Calgary and they both enjoyed along with myself and brother-in-law. Course in great condition and played very fair. Will return for sure.
Slow play Marshall not helpful
I have always liked this course. Good layout and good conditions. Our twosome was held up for 12holes even tho we were on the tee before the foursome in front had even teed off. Finally the Marshall showed and said the foursome was on time even tho we were only on the 12th hole after 4 hours. Extremely poor etiquette on the foursomes part but the Marshall was totally derelict in his duties. We should have overtaken them many holes before but never saw a Marshall. We finally passed them and never saw any golfers in front of us. I'm sure by the end of the day many golfers behind this inconsiderate four were screaming.
Not Bad
Ok course, paid $30 on hot deal so worth it. Would not pay full price.
Sort of dangerous course...
Awesome value
Course is always in great shape.
Greens roll true and are tough. Course knowledge always helps.
Bunkers could use some work. Even though they were dragged the traps were still hard.
Play early in the day if at all possible
Great course for the price
This course is adequately priced for the area and well worth the green fee.
Well maintained except for the bunkers. Many blind shots that you were unsure if the group ahead was clear. Will return.
Good course and value
Course in great shape.
Greens played difficult but fair.
