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.

very good experience
Course was in great condition, and playing end of November was a bonus. The price to play Lionhead was also a very good deal
lovely view from most tie boxs. well kept course
I have found most high-end/private course staff lack the social skills to provide customers an excellent start to their game
This course offers a variety of holes in its design to present challenges even when it seems benign. The Par 5 island green is a hoot!
Your round will provide the variety and fun that you and your foursome can muse about well after it's over.
pace of place was horrendous
I have called the course to let them know about the pace of play, there was a 2 hole gap on the back 9 that was holding everyone up. we golfed with a marshall from another course and I passed along what they do at his course, would not stop me from coming back.
this review is for the Lionhead Legends course
First we arrive and have the masters booked for the afternoon, we are told they will fit us in somehow. we start our round, cart path only, I have a knee brace on, marshall stops un after the 3rd hole asks how round is going, tell him about knee, he gets a flag so we can go 90% , the only way I would have got the 36 in. wonderful experience.... and the same price as you would pay at some of the ""local tracks""""
Lionhead-Masters
It was a beautiful Fall day in Southern Ontario. The course was being well-maintained despite the heavy downing of Fall leaves all over the course. Beautiful course with many changes of elevation changes and challenging greens. The only caveat was that the Pro Shop would not allow carts on the fairways or even the 90 degree rule from the paved pathways. The course was wet in some areas but that didn't stop the heavy blowing trucks from working on the fairways. There were hardly no issues from speed of play due to golfers taking their time or mismanagement of course play. There were hardly any golfers on the course but this round took 5.5 hours to complete...mainly due to parking cart and having to walk back and forth to find and play shot. If a course wants to protect the fairways, then a GPS controlled cart would have been an asset.
Fall Golf
Had a nice Fall day, Sunday afternoon with a number of slowdowns due to leaves in the fairway etc...course was in good end of the season condition and would rate higher during the summer/late spring....You need to be accurate from the tee or it could be a long day...there are some school buses buried on the greens so you better be on the right side of the flag! Overall good value for $50/w cart....nice track but list price is higher because of GTA, get a deal and then play it....
Great course conditions so late in the year!
I have always loved the layout of Lionhead. You can't just stand on the tee box and know what club to hit, it makes you think. The course is in great shape for mid - late October and the greens were some of the best I've played on all year. I always feel like I'm getting more of a private club experience here and love showing up to see my name on the cart, ready to go.
GREAT COURSE, VERY MATURE, PICTURESQUE, GREAT CONTOURS.
GOLF NOW PRICE WAS INCREDIBLE. $50 I THOUGHT BECAUSE IT WOULD BE FALL RATES, BUT I ASKED REGULAR RATE WAS 100 THAT DAY.
Nice course, a bit on the expensive side
If you want a challenge then this is the course for you.
Great course too slow
Always like this course. A good balance between challenging and playability. Last time were stuck behind some novice players and no sign of marshal to move them along. It was a 5+ hour round.
This course and staff had some great features
First class service upont arrival, staff offloaded our equipment confirmed our reservation and mounted the clubs on our cart.
Shuttle service from parking lot back to club house was great. Pro shop staff could have been friendler, had the opionion they turned off the charm when they learned we had booked through Golf Now. The course itself was in great shape, marshalls were obvious and kept play moving. Actual course was very well maintained and challenging. We played the masters course, White Tees and they were adequate for boggy golfers.
close to home
a very nice course, but nothing special. there are many better courses, for a lot less money.
Appreciate your review. What "better courses, for a lot less money?" Very interested.
Very interesting layout.
All the holes were well bunkered. The groomed and manicured fairways with its twists and turns were outstanding. The par 3s were long enough without being impossible to hit. The whole experience was really a treat. It was my second time there and I brought 3 players who have never played it and they raved about it. Thanks Lionhead well done.
Great condition
Course layout interesting and fun to play with. Pace of play is not fast. I finished my round about 41/2 hrs with a couple. The female golfer is a beginner and this track is tough to her skill level. Overall, green was rolling true, fairway was acceptable. I would say money well spend provided if you are not far away from it.
Appreciate your candid review. Pace of play seems to be a reoccurring theme at this course.
