Cranberry Golf Course
About
Cranberry Golf Course was carved from the picturesque landscape of southern Georgian Bay and has the distinction of being Canada’s first Audubon Society-certified golf course. There is some slight undulation in the bent grass fairways but overall the terrain is flat, making it accessible for beginners since there are no dramatic elevation changes or severely uneven lies. The front nine has numerous water hazards and plays a bit longer than the back nine due to a handful of lengthy par 5s. Cranberry Golf Course's back nine plays shorter and dryer but there are difficult doglegs and several large, strategically placed sand traps. There are also grass bunkers and contouring around the greens for added challenge.

Fun Round
I played with my son and the course was in great shape and fun to play.
Has a great time!
Great course....but
Have played here many times but this was the first time in MY LIFE that we were informed about not keeping pace in a timely manner and there was no one behind us?? WHO CARES....
Think about the customer.....
By the way, our round was 4 1/2 hrs for 4 guys.
Great greens
In great shape friendly staff would play again puts courses in southern ontario to shame
A very nice Resort Course
Excellent picturesque Resort Course in great shape. Very relaxing course to play, fairly tight but with no real difficulties. Long weekend busy but played 18 holes in four hours and fifteen minutes. Clubhouse Staff were friendly and most accommodating. Regards
Great condition for so early in season
The coarse was is great condition for so early. We played at a very fast pace as it was on a Monday and there were were not many people playing. Great value. Nice new carts.
Don't open if you're not ready...
The course was extremely soggy, but I guess that is normal there for the time of year. No power carts were available apparently because it was too soggy. Hmmmm, maybe offer them for cart path use only? The half way shack was closed and on the other side of the property. There was no Marshall on course, so after my three hour front nine I politely told the fellas I was playing with that my shoulder was too sore to keep playing. I expect that the course would be nice to play in the summer when all ammenities are offered, but I was quite disappointed with the condition and the services offered. The only saving grace was that I booked online and paid very little for my green fee so didn't mind so much walking off after nine holes.
Great course!
Cranberry was in great shape for fall. staff was friendly. Will golf again when I'm in Collingwood next year.
Not very interesting. Very flat
Recent rain still present on course because of poor drainage.
Many more interesting golf courses close by now. Too many resort players with little experience will increase pace of play to 5hrs.
Course is flat but OK. 2 very short par 3's based on changes to design. Not my cup of tea anymore.
Nice parkland course
Greens had just been aerated so were a little slow, otherwise course was in good condition. It winds through forests with few houses visible. Not a lot of elevation change so course is quite walkable.
Great course at a great price on GolfNow
Played from the whites which provided a good mix of challenges in terms of distance. Some par 3's were long while others were short.
The par 5's were a little short for some holes, but overall the course was quite a steal at the golfnow price!
Nice course, worth playing
The course was in excellent condition, moderately difficult but fair. Greens were in excellent condition, fairways were well maintained and wide enough to allow off center shots to be played.
Good track. Will play the course again!
Other than getting a golf cart that died on the 6th hole and not getting a replacement until the 10th hole -which we reached by taking turns walking or pushing - we were impressed with the course layout and condition.
Tees, fairways & greens were in great shape and provided a challenge.
We would play here again!
Nice Course
Nice Course fun to play ,was enjoyable ,Golf Now deals worked Great
Golf course rating
We enjoyed the course... great shape... staff friendly and let us off early.... bonus...very hot day .. I think the hottest of the summer we are told...
Will go back soon if time permits... thanks for the opportunity of quick booking and being able to play...
nice course
we played this one couple years ago walking due to wet conditions well not much changed it was car pat only ! and had booked next day not knowing wish had booked Lora Bay instead
Forgiving but Fun
Course is in good condition. Very wide open so it's pretty forgiving on those mishits. Staff are super friendly.....probably best in the area. Only draw back is course can be slow at times as you get a lot of "resort" golfers. Overall really enjoy playing here.
Good all around course.
The only negative is the bunkers are full of stones and when your ball drops in, bounces off a stone and out of bounds, then leaves a decent scuff on your ball.
Would love to play it again.
Very open fairways.

really slow play!
they need a marshall out there, we know it's a resort and people should have a great time, but they all have to know other people are playing not just them.
Well conditioned.
Played mid week and mid afternoon. Course was in good shape condition wise. Greens a bit slow, likely due to all the rain and lack of mowing opportunities.
Course is fair, but some shots where it would have helped to play previously. Enjoyed the course, good value for the money.
