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.

Fun layout
For the price there is nothing wrong with this golf course found it thought and fun but fair.
Spring Golf
Always one of my favourite courses. I think it may have been too soon to be played. Conditions were extremely wet. Greens were very slow and bumpy. All this could have been excused if the price wasn't so high. Needs to be better value for this time of season.
Serive and supply awfull
They had barely any food carts had nothing in them to eat and food they had tasted awfull
disappointed
Course was well overbooked 16 golfers waiting at some tee boxes long time customer of this course offered a free appetizer at restaurant should have received a free round or refund usually course is well run not sure what happene d had to stop at 16th hole due to darkness
For the Middle of November, Fabulous!!!!!
Staff was awesome. Very friendly and helpful. Really helped to get the day off on the right foot. Even for this late in the season, the course was in very good condition. The fairways had been cleared of leaves and the greens , while not as fast as mid season, were very good. Had a great day!!!
Thanks!!
Great course.
Both courses are prime. The Masters course is a little easier to play.
Thanks!
Slowest round of my life!
We had a 2:12 tee time that was pushed back 10-15 minutes, at least that's what we were told. 2:40 was when we could finally tee it up. By the time we reached the 3rd hole, we were backed up Two groups. From there on we had to wait a good 10 minutes per hole before we could play. Where's the marshals . With the sun setting at 7, this time of year, a 2:12 tee time should be enough time for a full round. We paid full price and only played 12 holes. Slowest round ever.
Pace of play is very slow
1 hour delay due to frost. Would have been nice to know before booking the same morning. Although this likely contributed to the slow pace (over 5 hours), it seemed like the course was over-booked and I've had the same issue in prior rounds...ie extremely slow pace of play. Staff was pleasant and new reno's look good. But, there are no rangers on the course and pace of play seems to be a low priority. Shame on me for booking here as I knew this from prior history, but thought it may have improved. Clearly not.
Thanks for the feedback. Will pass along to the operations staff.
Great course, horrible pace of play and customer service
First of all, played the Masters course from the blues. Very nice challenging course, in great condition. The layout is aimed at decent to good golfers.
We had a 9:16 tee time and got out at 10 am due to a frost delay. Unfortunately there were a couple of groups of hackers in front of us. Despite then Marshall passing us every 20 minutes the pace of play was unbearable. At one point he told us there were 3 open holes ahead of these groups, but he did nothing about it. We finally abandoned our round after 10 holes and 4 1/2 hours!
Went to the pro shop and told them and they gave us 9 hole credits. Said that if we had complained before finishing 9 he would have given us 18. Guy was full of attitude. That's fine, gave my credit to my partner. Great course that caters to hackers and is ok with 8+ hour rounds, so I won't be back.
Great course
Really enjoyed the round being my first time at the Masters course was in great condition
Awesome, thanks!
Great course for a challenge
This was my first time playing this course. Overall layout is very nice with very challenging holes and deceiving distances. A lot of the holes seem to be level, but will be just slightly uphill, bringing many hazards into play.
Good News: This is a course that you will have no problem increasing your GIRs.
Bad News: The greens are so massive that you'll still need a driver to get close to the hole once you're on them.
I shot poorly during the round and my slice took over, but had I played semi-decent, I would have shot my handicap.
thanks! you will have to try Legends next time, the greens are much smaller!
Challenging but great
First time I have played the Masters Course at Lionhead usually end up on the Legends Course. We played an afternoon tee time at 3:40. If you are looking for a bargain to play this course make sure it is during the week. You can find it for $65-$75 cart included in the afternoon during the week. It is definitely worth the money that you pay.
We played from the blues which is an estimated 6,300 yards. Everything from the tee boxes, fairways, greens and sand traps were well maintained. Unfortunately on this afternoon we had a fairly slow group in front of us but were just in time to finish 18. I would absolutely recommend this course to anyone who consider's themselves a decent golfer. It is a fairly challenging course that includes some fairly long holes, narrow fairways and even an island green. Following our round we went to the restaurant Iggy's attached to the course. I would recommend to anyone playing at Lionhead if you have the chance make sure you try the restaurant. Had the wings to start and a burger as my main course and both were delicious! Make sure if you are ever looking for a round of golf and you see Lionhead for under $80 you book it right away!
Lionhead -masters
If your wanting the experience of a good quality Kaneff courses. Lionhead is a definite choice. Conditions, were exceptional. Would have been nice if someone monitored the pace of play, in particular.....twighlight. We skipped a hole, to get ahead of some slow players, only to be held with another group two holes ahead just as bad.
Thanks, will pass this along to Jerry our pro and his staff.
Pleasantly surprised
Pleasantly surprised at the pace of play at the Masters course at Lionhead,, no real delays especially on a long weekend. Great experience from start to finish ending with lunch at Iggy's. Course conditions were excellent with greens running quick and true. Nice variety of holes with hazards in the right places making you think about most shots. Never ending problem with unrepaired ball marks on greens, no fault of the maintenance staff. My round included 3 birdies so I went home happy!
Very nice course.
Everything was top notch, great course.
Good Challange
A well kept course and facilities. Staff is very courteous and friendly and do everything to get you out on time. The course is challenging but fair, not for the beginner golfer.
Thanks dramas!

Great course and layout. Saved a ton booking through golf now!
Thanks!
Great value
Lionhead Masters was in great shape the day that we played. It was quite hot so the course was not that busy. Plus we got the Hot Deal which made it quite a good deal. Very happy, will definitely play again.
Thanks James!
