Tucked away in quiet Copetown, Flamborough Hills Golf & Country Club offers 27 holes of championship golf. The club features three unique nines that are played in three different 18-hole combinations, each of which offer plenty of variety from one another. Originally opened in 1961 under the name Windsor Park, the Hills and the Woods golf courses formed the original 18-hole course at Flamborough Hills Golf & Country Club. The Lakes nine was added in 1994. When combined with the Hills nine, the two provide a challenging round with plenty of water and elevation changes. The landscape is covered with mature trees and abundant in native wildlife, giving golfers a scenic complement to their game.

Nice course and clubhouse

Course was in good shape given excessive rain this spring. Course is quite hilly so low areas were wet in spots. Greens were fair with some challenging pin placements. Played on a holiday so course was fairly busy and pace was slow. Good value below $50 with cart given several nice courses in the area can be played for this price or less.

Forgot what a great course this is

Hadn't played this course in 20 years. I forgot what a great course this is. At $50 on a weekend with a cart it was a fabulous value. It would probably be a difficult walking course, but really enjoyed playing here.

Grreat Course

We were allowed to play 27 holes for the fantastic price of $28.00 cart included. Course is a great challenge, in great shape with greens that are tough to read and gauge. What a great course and what a fantastic round. can't wait to go back.

Okay.............

Our foursome played today and had a two for 1 coupon with carts for $48.50 each-seemed overpriced for the conditions.. We played the Lakes and Hills and noticed both set of greens different. Check in was good and nice carts but still too much for the round.

Great Round

We had a great round on the Hills/Woods course.

There were some dry spots but it was a drought summer so it is understandable. Greens were in good shape.

Check in was easy, the carts were clean and modern, Marshall was polite, and the bar staff were prompt. The beverage cart also came around several times and she was friendly.

I look forward to coming back.

Burned out

Surprised by how burned out the fairways were. Ball would be in the middle of the fairway and you were hitting off dirt. Guess we are spoiled in the Niagara region bc even though we also had the drought, our courses are in much better shape. Was not wirth the $53 green fee. I'm sure the course doesn't usually look in such rough shape. Wouldn't recommend this year.

Fun day out

The course fairways had dirt between grass . For that time of year I think it should be in better shape. Not worth what they normally charge but worth 50 dollars. Course layout was different . Lots of hidden flags from the tee. Enjoyed it anyway. Golf was challenging.

Today.....disappointing

Played here last year, but this morning was disappointing. We finished around 1 p.m. and never saw a refreshment cart. Went inside to buy a sandwich, but 4 kids behind the bar were too interested in talking to one another. Bring your own. If you play here frequently, you probably get familiar with the 3 blind holes on the Woods. Understanding there has been a drought this year, fairways looked like they were cut too short, so burnt and dry in many places. For the money, there are better options in better shape this year. Not sure I would return this year.

The woods course was too quirky with hidden greens

Will not go back. Terrible conditions and way over priced for quality. Very nice clubhouse though.

Staff need a course in customer service

Played here many times before and the staff has never been particularly friendly or adept at making you feel welcome.

The guy in the pro-shop had zero personality, you work at a golf course, at least smile and pretend you are happy to have us as a "Guest" at your facility. The starter was equally bland, no hi how are you, just dry dry dry!!! Went into the clubhouse at the turn had stuff to buy in our hands three staff members were there, but no one bothers to help us, but did serve someone else that came in after we did...We walked out, to bad you lost sales there, sorry to the cart girl that didn't get a tip, because of this.

Played lakes and woods, course was in OK condition given the dry weather, tee blocks were a little sketchy, maybe the forward tees were better, we played the back tee's, greens were in good shape, but a little slow. Course is straight forward and in reality they don't have enough land for three 9's the holes are very close together.

Thanks to some poor attitudes this course is now of our rotation. To many other choices with friendly staff that make you feel welcome.

Tale of two nines

Played the Woods and Lakes course at Flamborough Hills with a friend. The Woods was in excellent condition but the Lakes was very burned out, however, probably because it it more exposed to the sun. The greens on the newer Lakes nine are much larger, more undulating and thus more challenging than those on the Woods although all the greens were in much better condition than those on some courses that I have played this month.

Each tee has 4 teeboxes and a diagram of the hole for golfers who are not familiar with the course.

Flamborough has quiet, easily to handle electric carts and I would advise golfers to ride since many tees are considerable distances from the previous greens.

If the price were right I would definitely play there again.

Will play it again

Considering the weather you can expect some burnt patches on the fairway. Some greens seen rather small than average. But you can look at it as a challenge I suppose.

At discounted rate, it's worth it.
