Burlington Springs Golf Club
About
Situated along the edge of the Niagara Escarpment, Burlington Springs Golf Club offers the most scenic and affordable round in the area. While not quite a championship layout, the golf course does feature some longer holes that play alongside dense, mature forest. There are also some interesting water elements, including an underground reservoir that feeds several ponds that come into play throughout the course. The greens are large and heavily guarded by strategically placed bunkers and while the rest of the course is relatively flat, there is some undulation in the fairways. Burlington Springs is a traditional course that is both challenging and manageable enough to appeal to a wide range of skill levels.

Excellent value
I cut my golf teeth on this course back in the 70's and it's always good to go back now and then. Doing that it strikes me that the course is very well maintained. It seems to me the course is in better shape than I remember it. As far as play goes I also like the fact that there is a good combination of straightforward holes as well as those that require some thought. Number 9 is a good example of this. Short par four with water on the right and a group of willows guarding the green on the right side. The 150 marker is about 150 away and staring you right in the face telling you to lay up to that point. You have choices here and on may holes around the course. We had a great day.
great morning on the course
We got an amazing deal through golfnow for 18 holes. 44$ all in for 2 golfers @ 8:00am.
I've played this course many times over the last 15 years and the course was in great condition. Other than some small chunks taken out of a couple of greens (likely from an animal) it was great. We played in 3.5 hours and we had groups in front and behind with great pace. An awesome round for a course that may be in its best shape in years.
Loks like they are spending $ to change the layout with massive planting of shrubs/trees on every hole. In 5 years this course will be completly different
Great value with a little room for improvement
A decent course with a bit of space on most holes for an errant shot or two. I'd like to see some better markers for the 200 yard & 100 yard poles. The 100 yd markers were very difficult to see and the 200 yard markers weren't even there in some cases!
I'd go back and play again as this course represents great value for money.
Do Something Else
Tee boxes were aerated and mud was left to cover the entirety with no temporary place provided to hit from.
Half of the greens were cut for PGA tour standards, while the rest were almost fairway length.
Criticized by pro shop lady for arriving only 10 minutes before tee time, unaware we would be needing to provide driver's license, phone number, address, SIN number, and a copy of our last full physical in order to satisfy their insurance for cart use. We realized shortly after, this was because of the horrible condition of the carts. Presumably there have been a few past incidents...
If it was free, I would contemplate whether it was worth spending the gas to get there.
Must keep ball on fairways rough very thick,greens fast.
Course in very good shape rough tough ,they have planted over 20000 trees in past year will really make a difference in years to come this short course will play just s little harder in the future.
Springs
course is still the same layout as in the past but more water and small trees which when they mature will make this course challenging.
Fairways and greens in great shape.
Tee blocks are fairly level.
Play was very very slow. Had to wait on every hole and time to play was 5:15 hours.
Good Day
1st time playing here, the first 7 holes are hum drum, then it gets interesting, really liked the back 9. We had a slow round over 5 hours backed up from 2nd hole on. Greens had seen some use and balls were hoping and skipping, but for the most part running true. There are a lot of new trees planted and in a few years its going to make for some narrow fairways and a lot tougher on the 1st 7 holes, till then there pretty easy.
Course was in great shape
This course is great for the confidence. Greens are in great shape, and not overly challenging. Fairways are very open, never lost a ball. Teed off early morning golfed at a quick pace. Overall highly recommend for the price and condition of the course.
Not bad for the money
Word of warning to anyone looking at suing this course. If you are a novice/beginner golfer, just play somewhere else. You and/or your foursome will get told to "speed it up" and "pick up the pace" at every chance by the Marshall. This made for a lacklustre outing for my buddy and I who are decent golfers as the pair we were paired up with could not keep up with the expected pace of the course officials.
The couple that was with us eventually abandoned their round early (left after the 13th hole). Pretty sad really.
Ridiculous price for a course of this average quality
I know it was a Sunday morning but $65 per person for a course of this very average quality was not worth it. I might think that this course is worth $40 on a regular basis.
The front nine is basically back and forth with a creek across each fairway - the back nine is more interesting but still not a $65 course. There is very little challenge off the tee, fairways are wide open with the occasional tree int he middle and the greens have virtually no texture - other than a basic slope one way of the other.
The staff were great and the place was packed (so someone must be getting a great deal somewhere but it was not us). The pace of play was good.
At the bottom of my value for money list.
Good Bang for the Buck !!!!
There was a tournament booked on the same day/time as our tee time. I initially thought as a Golf Now customer, that we would be left to the back of the pack. Not so, the staff were awesome in ensuring that our tee off time was kept- they started us off at the 10th tee. I was impressed ! The course was well manicured and clean overall. Finished our round in just under 4 hours. I will definitely play there again !!!
An old friend
I've been playing this course for over 40 years, usually a dozen or so times a year. Conditions this year are the best I remember and continual improvement over the last half dozen years or so are making a positive difference in the golfing experience. Sand traps are much improved and general condition of the fairways and greens is much better than a decade ago.
I often hear people discount this course who haven't played it for 20 years……they would be pleasantly surprised.
Fairways are generous and the course disarms you as most of the holes appear to be easy…..but position is key as being on the wrong side of the fairway on most holes leads to a difficult second shot that wasn't apparent from the tee.
I always enjoy my visit here…..a great mix of holes.
This course has a variety of holes
This course was very green everywhere with a variety of holes to test ones mettle. A bad shot is usually recoverable as there is a minimum of rough areas. Also, the staff have been busy planting trees and bushes everywhere for future golfers to avoid. Our foursome was around the course in just over 4 hours but were not rushed at all. An enjoyable experience.
Has not chaned much over the years
I found the green every very slow. All three of us were always short of the cup by a large quantity. I could not adjust to the speed. We played the Blues. Must try it another time. The rough was was challenging due to its length
golf
not a bad track. lots of free drops because of roped off planted trees. bring your bug spray!
nice public course
Played with 3 other guys who shot all in the low to mid 80's and the only comment all of us agreed on was the rough was too long for a public course. We noticed some of the players in front of us who were more of intermediate skill level couldn't advance the ball very far. So just a little shorter in the rough and would make world of good for the high handicapper. Solid 4 out of 5.
Gem of a course
Have played this course numerous times.Sure the club house facilaties are a little old and tired,but so what.The course itself is in excellent shape and provides a reasonable challenge for average golf ears, especially seniors ( I am 76 yrs. young), Nice mix of holes.They have just started a tree planting project, planting 25000 trees.You can't beat the price, $42.00 + tax?Played in just over 3 hours, followed by a cold one and delicious sandwich. There are over 20 courses to choose from in our area, and Burlington Springs is definitely one of our favourites.y
