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.

Very friendly staff

Course was in very good conditions given the amount of rain.

Lots of unfixed ball marks, too bad that players cannot fix theirs plus 1.

Looking forward to playing again this year.

Well maintained course

Course was in great shape and played well. The only difficulty is there are a few very blind tee shots within the hilly landscape of settlers. Very good course though!

Great course

First time playing this course, as we were up in the Barrie area for a few days. I was so impressed with this course I had to write a review, which I’ve never done on GolfNow. Course was in great condition after some heavy rain the day before. Soft fairways, decent length in the rough, greens were in great shape, and beautiful scenery all around! If I lived near here I’d join this course in a heartbeat and play all my golf here. Highly recommend. Oh, pace of play was awesome too, and we were walking between two other married couples.

Great Golf

This course is a lot of up and down large hills and is challenging to walk but a very good course. If you hit the long grass your ball will be a challenge to find!

Very scenic course

The course is in excellent condition and challenging. Not a lot of water hazards which is great because there are many blind shots. We arrived very early and the staff were able to get my wife and I out right away. We walked the course and there are some significant elevation changes. We were not exhausted but we are generally fit. We like walking when we can. There are many added features like fencing, large rocks and old farm equipment displayed all around the course. Very picturesque. Well done by the designers. There is some ares with fescue grass but it isn't in play unless you are really off course. We enjoyed our round.
