Lionhead Golf and Country Club - Legends

I came out for customer appreciation day because it offered a decent price and a few extras. It was a good day and I was matched up with 2 others who were very nice. In order for this course to improve on this event in the future, I offer these tips. Don't have staff out cutting the grass on nearly every hole we played. When you offer lunch as part of the package, include a beverage with the burger. I was surprised that it wasn't included. This is known to be a good course, so if you want to continue to be known this way, upgrade the carts to include GPS.

One of my favourite courses in the GTA in terms of conditions and course architecture; Lionhead once again challenged our group to drive-straight and give an extra look before putting. One thing to keep in mind is that this track lives up to its reputation of being exceptionally tough, however it executes this in a fair manner.

Course conditions were stellar as always, and the staff were friendly and accommodating.

I highly recommend Lionhead for someone looking to challenge themselves with fast greens and demanding course-management.

Good management, beautiful view. greens aren't easy,challenging.....

Excellent day of golf, can't wait to play again....great value for the money

Greeting to all golfer was excellent and course was superb.

great course and great service. very nice scenary although the distances force your second shot to be a very long or layup

Great course conditions, but a bit slow paced. Made worse by a halfway house that is out of the way. Need to fix the patio service soon.

This course was more scenic than the Masters course. The elevation changes from tee to green made it fun and interesting. It demanded accuracy or else it resulted in a few lost balls for me. It was my first time and I am willing to try it again but after I have worked on my accuracy.

Finally played this track via GolfNow discount. Very interesting lay out - looking forward to playing it a second time,now that I know the course. Various blind tee shots, with rough beginning sooner than you think. Green were in great shape although rolling a little slow in the early am. Not sure this corse is worth the regular 200 green fee however watch for deals. Great to try out.

I tell you what, my friends and I came away from the Legends course feeling much less than satisfied with our round. The facilities at Lionhead are good, and the staff were all friendly and professional. However, the course itself was a huge letdown. This was my third trip to Lionhead, and my second time playing the Legends course. The two previous experiences were all in all enjoyable. This most recent trip proved to be quite to the contrary of the first two. The two biggest issues we had with the course was the length of the rough, and the shape of the greens. Now I know this is a public track that sees a ton of traffic, and the greens are going to suffer. That said, there was clearly no effort put forth by the turf department to prepare the course for golfers who are paying big bucks to play. Definitely the most puzzling memory I took away from this round came from the 16th hole, where the plug from the previous days' hole was left sticking up a half inch above the level of the green. The bottom line is that this course does not provide near enough value for the steep price tag.

55% off via GolfNow made the round reasonably priced. The slope of the fairways and undulations of the greens require well placed shots to have a chance at scoring well.
The recent deluge of rain resulted in some areas of the course being very spongy and limited the rolling off of some tee shots.
We asked about playing another 9 but were informed it would be $69 pp w/cart. As a result, we chose not dine there (went to Union Social instead - good food) nor play another 9.
Not worth what the posted rates are but using GolfNow made it a fair value..

Would never pay full price, but will grab it when the hot deals appear

Course gave me a full rain check for any non-prime time tee time before the end of the 2014 season.

Conditions, were immaculate ! Pace considering holiday was good. This course is a must play, challenging, course management a must. Staff very attentive.

For you golfers out there looking for a challenge, Lionhead Legends is a serious test of golf. tight fairways, bunker protected greens with tough pin placements and plenty of trouble if your off target. Course was in fabulous condition (greens were not super fast but true). If your not a under 90 golfer , don"t expect it from this track .One of the toughest 18 holes in the GTA . IMO

Excellent Course however I would of expected the sand traps to have been raked, Especially considering this is Kaneff's flagship golf course and the price they charge.

Good track lotsa sand. Can't be too aggressive off the tee less than driver better option on most holes except par 5s. In great shape. Staff friendly. No halfway house and no coffee on cart which came at 11. We tee'd off at 645, hit the turn around 10ish so some food would have been appreciated. Glad we got the golfnow deal because reg price and no food options would have been very annoyed. Over all glad to try legends and will be back.

The course design is a little overdone. Having to layup off the tee on so many holes makes a course play tough, but not a truly fair test of golf.

Excellent shape, condition and beauty. I just keep coming back. Played 8 times this season already.

found the greens a bit unfair,, for a first timer, the greens only surrendered 2 birdies and 10 holes making me 3 putt,, overall cant wait to get back
