Wonderful course

Playing at hidden lake was amazing. Great course. Nice long par 5’s great par 3’s, watch out for the rough though!

Considering that it’s the end of season it felt like we were playing at the beginning of the year. Fairways were perfect condition with equally good a green.

Great day out was had

Great deal, golfers and staff were friendly. Golf course was good for the time of the year. Golf cart seat was ripped and was seal was tape.

The pace was slow, it is the weekend so it is to be expected. Overall I would go back if I got the same deal.

Great afternoon

Other than the aeriated greens course was in great shape. Never understood aeriating greens during peak golf season. We only have 3 good months. At the very least courses should consider compensation for this. It always been a pet peeve of mine.

Hi LAC1021. Thanks for taking the time to review your round with us.

Glad to hear you enjoyed your time with us. In order to keep the greens manicured to golfers expectations, it is needed to aeriate the greens two times per year, unfortunately you can't simply do it in the should season both times, so it causes us needing to do it at least once in peak season. We will ensure all feedback is shared with the Club Director. Our greens will be healed in the next 4 days, I hope to see you return for another round once healed!

Hi Titus2604236. Thanks for taking the time to review your round with us.

We're sorry to hear you don't feel the course is held in the same regard as before. Hidden Lake is by far the best value course in the area, and we certainly have significant desire to keep it as the best conditioned course to go along with that. If there is ever a time to chat through any of your feedback further, please come see us.

Hi ouasis. Thanks for taking the time to review your round.

If you are a fast golfer, I highly recommend returning and using the early morning tee times from 6:30am-7:30am, you will be able to play at any pace your desire. Hope to see you back, soon!

Hood course, great staff ... shaggy, uncut greens on a Sunday morning (8:25 tee time) was a disappointment though. Several greens had “crowned holes” which increased the frustration.

Hi u846585432. Thanks for the positive review. We are just wrapping up our greens conditioning, it was a little later this year due to the late start of the season.

Please return to see us in another 7-10 days and the greens will be back in mid-season form. Hope to see you soon!

Hidden Lake is a Hidden Gem

Nice course with a few blind Tee Shots. Course is in great condition. We played from the tips and found it an easy driving course with tougher approaches to the green. A few long walks between holes but good for walking also. Will play again.

Windy weather
Used cart

Pricey but Playable

This early on and with the weather we are having it would be hard to have a course as clean and well kept as this one was. Worth the money? Maybe for the start of the season and during these poor conditions, however as the season starts to progress it may be a little too expensive for what it provides. You can get a similar experience for 2/3 or even half the price. Before Clublink got ahold of her, it was much cheaper for a round (60%) and not much has changed, albeit this is my first time out since the change and we played on the old course. Winds were a challenge at times as certain parts of the course had concentrated gusts that were not manageable for less seasoned golfers. Intermittent spongey surfaces and washouts could be overlooked due to recent weather conditions. Overall a great course to be played during poor weather spouts, but about average when the weather is cooperating.

Hi MatthewBasler37.

Thanks for taking the time to review your experience with us. We are very proud to be one of the best valued courses in Burlington and the West GTA. We would argue there are no courses at the same level priced any lower than us.

We hope you'll come back during the peak season to evaluate the value for money with the course is mid-season form!
