Lionhead Golf and Country Club - Legends

About
The Legends Course at Lionhead Golf & Country Club has been ranked before as one of the toughest golf courses in North America and the club boasts that it is the toughest in Canada. Lionhead Golf & Country Club also offers another, less demanding 18-hole course that is equally entertaining, the Masters. Legends features numerous challenges including vast lakes, cavernous sand bunkers, and tall fescue. The layout winds through a rugged portion of the Credit River Valley with steeply rolling terrain and wooded ravines, providing the golf course with elevated, undulating greens. The eighth is a notable hole, both for its beautiful scenery and its difficulty level. It is a long par 3 over a pond filled with tall bulrushes.

Legends experience
Conditions, were immaculate ! Pace considering holiday was good. This course is a must play, challenging, course management a must. Staff very attentive.
Great test of golf
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 But Needs To Be Looked After
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 tough
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.
Nice, but...
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.
Fabulous Course
Excellent shape, condition and beauty. I just keep coming back. Played 8 times this season already.
the greens are very difficult
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
Tough freakin course
Legends is a monster. Tight fairways and tons of hazards and places to get in troublel. Course is in great shape as usual. Greens were fast.
$9 for a Stella is way too much.
Wow Awesome Course
Very scenic and well laid out course, challenging with water and many bunkers. Key to playing here is to plan your shots by either laying up to avoid trouble or knowing when to go for it.
location is good
really enjoy the 2 cources very reasonably priced great staff friendly ...it would better if it did not play too slow
Best course in Mississauga/Brampton
By far the best public course in the west GTA area. Course is so beautiful and very well maintained . Certainly was a treat to the eyes. You actually need proper guidance to play this course due to the design. Selling the guidance book for $5/- was not really appealing.
A challenging outing
Always enjoy playing the Legends....tough greens....lots of rough
Masters
Masters course at Lionhead always provide a challenging round! Good to see that greens have recoved from the winter ddamage.
I would like to see them fix their "starter" process. it seems always unorganized in getting to the 1st tee on time. this time groups were down on 1st tee that shouldnt have been there causing us tee off 30 mins behind schedule.
Great course(s)
Lionhead is a great golf course for those how like the challenge. Course was mostly in great shape with the exception of some greens. Staff was wonderful and pace of play was on the money. If you've never golfed lionhead I would recommend you do, and maybe throw a couple extra balls in the bag.
Excellent course
Have golfed for close to 10 years across ontario Canada, and this is the best courses I have played. challenging holes and well kept conditions. will definetly be back.
Lionhead Legends
Excellent value for the money...booked through GolfNow.com.
Great course
Played the Legends with my wife on Sunday. Every hole offers something to think about and remember. Pace of play was excellent. Very difficult but playable if you hit it straight. Only complaint is people not repairing ball marks! And, the Hot Deal from GolfNow was great. I'll be back!
great conditions, very challenging a little over priced
Really the only complain would be that the food is sub-par (don't get a sandwich from half-way house) but sausage was good.
I wouldn't want to pay any more. It should be no more than $75 to play at this course.
Course was in great condition and many holes are very challenging (from the blue tees)
legends or bust
Great course, but only if your playing legends why bother with the masters, u gona pay for it so might as well play the better of the 2 18s... only bad thing i can say is the cart girl had no sandwiches... what's up with that!
Great bag for your $$$ on golfnow.con
Course is in awesome shape (legends) and very clean. Staff were great! Only thing is that the halfway house was closed already before 5pm, because it was closed we had to go upstairs to the bar which wasn't a problem but they where having a function.
