Lionhead Golf and Country Club - Masters
About
The Masters Course at Lionhead Golf & Country Club is ideal for golfers who don't feel they are prepared to take on the demanding Legends Course at the club, which has been ranked as one of the toughest courses in North America. The Masters layout is similar to golf courses in Florida, with unique bunkers and scenic ponds that meld perfectly with the rolling hills and wetlands that dot the scenic landscape. Its more traditional layout is considered the kinder and gentler of the two golf courses at Lionhead Golf & Country Club, but there are still a fair amount of challenges. The Masters course requires several long carries over water, particularly on the 16th. This infamous par 5 features a green surrounded by water.

LIONHEAD - Masters Course
My brother and I spent a wonderful day at Lionhead. It was a little overcast but the course conditions were excellent and we enjoyed the entire day. Great Course, Great Staff and a Great Experience! I would recommend this for any kind of family bonding.
excellent value
played late afternoon for excellent (for this course) price. Busier than anticipated, but to be expected at this time of year. Course in great shape. Challenging for mid to high handicappers. Helps to have played here before - Masters not as long as the Legends, but tricky doglegs and lots of sandtraps! Highly recommended, especially at Golfnow deals.
Always A Bargain When You Pay Under $80
Conditions were good except for the sandbunkers, they were hard.
Hot and windy
Course was playing tough. I had heard greens took a beating from the winter so first time out this year. Have played before, so could see where greens were stressed but looked like they had recovered pretty well. Not near 100% but better than some cheaper courses.
I played in the afternoon and they had shotgun tournament in the morning. Got out on time and course was cleared of all items related to tournament, so bonus marks for the staff. Got me out on time and paired up with a couple of newbies so I could lead them around. Only complaint, BALL REPAIR TOOLS should be mandatory on all golf courses !! should be enforced more than divot repair or slow play. I fixed at least half a dozen ball marks on every green, even ones not in my line. Was really bad but expect that from tournament pla I guess. Staff should go out to each green after and repair what they can. Was a factor on a number of my putts !! Overall, still a nice track and good price with cart and staff was friendly and efficient as was cart setup and starter.
Scenic and well managed
A good test off the blue tees.
With so many doglegs it would be nicer to have GPS yardages on carts to speed up play.
Couldn't ask for friendlier staff. We were made to feel very welcome the moment we arrived.
Too slow pace of play
Although we complained several times to the marshal that the foursome in front of us was playing too slowly nothing happened. Also nobody repairs ball marks on the greens nor rakes the sand traps. It is a pity that such a nice course is not looked after by the players.
Beautiful course if you can get a deal
This is a beautiful course, and very challenging, I wouldn't pay the full rate for it, but if you can find a good deal on Golf now go for it, paid $50 and don't regret it at all.
stuck behind tournament
Had a 1:24 tee time got paired up with a father and son great people.starter informed us on first tee we were following a tournament and the last few groups are juniors and they would be walking.we had a 15-20 min wait on the first 3 holes then we came to the 4th tee and there was 14 golf carts waiting there thats right 14 couldn't count all the people.so we called the club house and a marshall came out and took us over to the legends course.we finished at 7:30 pm
For the price....
I love the Marters Course at Lionehead, unlike the Legends it's not too difficult. The staff there is always friendly et we normally have a great time.
The only thing that always bugs me is that for the price, we should have free access to the driving range instead of paying extra, and at least have a GPS in every cart.
Good layout but the greens need some work
The course has a nice layout with some fun holes. The tees and fairways were good but the greens had some rough patches and some of the bunkers are a mix of sand and gravel. I would not pay full price for this course but if you can get a hot deal for $50 or less it would be a decent value. I would play here again in hopes the greens would be better.
Great course.
Great course and challenge.
Will definitely play it again.
Overall Impression
Played on Masters Course. Many of the greens were severely damaged from the icy winter. Difficult to get a smooth roll on some putts. Depending on pin location, ball will skip along the way to hole. Renovations outside pro shop currently. Staff friendly. Good value for money from Golf Now.
Excellent condition
Golf course in great shape. Rained hard in the morning so kept most golfers home. Course was almost empty.
Great value, great service, fun course.
Only minor complaint - some of the bunkers could use a bit of sand.
SLOWWWW Play
Nice course but when it takes over 5 hours to play, it doesn't matter how nice the people are or how good the course is. Not sure if it's always like this, but will definitely look elsewhere for my golf.
Hurry up and wait
Every hole we had to wait for nearly every shot. People behind us pushing; people in front wating.
No marshalls moved any one along. At one point, we were waiting at the tee blocks, the guys ahead were waiting to tee off. the guys behind were waiting with us as well. Beautiful course.Poorly marshalled.
Kind of disappointed.
Military Precision... Until you hit he Second Tee!
The course was beautiful but the pace was horrendous! We teed off and finished our front nine after a Scorching 3 hrs! No Marshall's on the front 9 what so ever.
Wouldn't return for a mid day tee time!
Very challenging course
Played this course on June 30th. It was a really hot and humid day, which made it even more challenging. One of the toughest but prettiest course I've ever played. Staff were very professional and pleasant. Hope to play it again soon.
Excellent condition & value
Excellent day with two USA colleagues. We had 8:30 AM tee off on Masters. No one close to us all day.
A tremendous experience!
We want Marshall
This was a 5 hr and 31 minute round from tee off to finish. There was not one Marshall and the course was in pretty good shape considering our winter. Nobody repairing divots, ball marks, raking sand in traps. Hold golfers accountable..I don't get it and to me it seems they care more about slotting in golfers.
I can't understand how golfers can play so long and I really believe courses should take it upon themselves to police this matter. Have all golfers in Canada go to a classroom course on etiquette, standards, how to play, rules for tournaments and then explain you don't need to walk back to tees to hit another ball during simple rounds of golf. Then 1 5 hr session at a local golf course, teaching divot replacement, speed of play, practice swing max of 3....golfers used to be afraid to do something against club rules. Now there seem to be zero rules and no one gets kicked off courses.
I would volunteer 2 days to do a course and then get evaluated at a local course. It will eat up some of my time but it will make golf better for the long run. Golf needs a new voice
Father's Day Flop
Played the Master's on Father's day and teed off at 6:24am. We didn't finish until after 11 o'clock and the group in front of us was well over a hole behind throughout the game. We didn't see a marshall once. After the round, I voiced my concern over the slow play to the head professional who said, "it is father's day and we are very busy." When I indicated that it had taken us 4hours and 40 minutes to play he said " well our standard of play is 4 hours and 52 minutes". This is a ridiculous answer for a high end challenging course when you start shortly after 6am on a Sunday. Also, teh greens were in bad shap. Disappointing outting.
