Located in Copetown, Flamborough Hills Golf & Country Club originally opened under the name Windsor Park in 1961. Since then, another nine, the Lakes nine, has been added and the Woods nines underwent renovations to make the golf course more challenging. In total, the club offers 27 holes of golf. They are divided into three nines that are played in three different 18-hole combinations. The Woods/Lakes course features plenty of water hazards and mature trees. The Woods’ second hole is Flamborough Hills Golf & Country Club’s signature hole. This tricky par-3 features an elevated tee deck and requires a challenging carry over water to a narrow, kidney-shaped green.

Flam borough Hills

We enjoyed our game. Our first time playing the course. The course is suffering with the drought conditions like everywhere. Would love to play again after we get some significant rain to help green things up.

Enjoyable Flamborough Hills

Pro shop staff were very friendly and check in was easy. I was informed range balls were included in my round, a nice bonus. The starter was very friendly and knowledgeable. We got off early . We had the front nine Hills course to ourselves and played the Woods as the second nine. The course was in great shape. Some tee boxes needed work but overall it was a great round. On some of the par 5 they could use a bell to inform those on the tee box when it is safe to hit. It is a hilly course, riding should be considered. The beverage cart came around often and was friendly. Returning the power cart I was greeted by a staff member who asked how the round was and took my cart.

Major let down

I was really looking forward to my round at flamborough and right from the start I was really disappointed. When my buddy walked into the pro shop with his sweater on the pro tells him he has to have a collar visible that can be tricky with November golf...pretty weak in my opinion. We had a 8:50 tee off and we where at the starter at 8:45 and had to wait for 3 groups that somehow where in front of us, when I asked the starter if there was a delay he said no....pretty poor. Before I booked the round I called the pro shop and asked what shape the course was in and the guy said excellent.......Greens punched half grown in bumpy,not cut fairways punched lots of plugs around....another joke. I may come back to this course but it Will Not be for the golf it will be for the food. Absolutely delicious and great service . Keep it up food and beverage your doing great.....golf service staff take notes.

Over priced!

50$ to golf in November, on freshly aerated fairways. A little over priced.

The starter was putting golfers out on the woods and the lakes at the same time. Created a ridiculous log jam when we made the turn onto lakes.

Course Conditions are Good

Most area courses have dryed out fairways and greens that don't hold, this course is great shape.

Each hole has a new challange. I really enjoyed this course.

Great Course to Golf

My party golfed under cloudy skies, but the weather was agreeable. The fairways and greens were in great shape. The only unfortunate part of the course is that there is a lot of rough between the tree lines and the fairway. I think the fairways could be a little wider to enhance the enjoyment of playing the course.

Besides that, everything was in good order.

Expected More

I heard some good reviews, but there were many blind shot holes and a 230 yard par 3 that felt totally out of place compared to the rest of the course.

I think if you play here a lot you would get to know the course and enjoy it more. It kind of fell flat of what I expected.

Great trek that is very well maintained!

The course is named appropriately! Lots of hills on all 3 nines. Quite a few blind shots into the green on par 4's and 5's.

Friendly staff and all three courses are well maintained. And it wasn't too busy so there was no waiting between shots. Great!

Only suggestion is to have GPS on the carts. The courses are championship level and the GPS would put them at par with many other courses at the same calibre.

Cutting Lawns during the whole round

We have always loved playing at the Flamborough Downs Golf Course. But on this occasion, there were multiple tractors at every hole cutting the fairways or the tee boxes. At the 5th hole of the Woods course, they even turned the sprinklers on to wet the repairs the grounds crew had completed. It was very unfortunate that we had to endure grounds maintenance during our play which adverselly affected our play. We know that grounds maintenance have to be done. But we don't ever recall the extend of disruptions that we have experienced at other golf courses.

Nice course if you play fast

Course was in great shape after a storm, cart girl was nowhere to be found on the front nine and came around the back with 3 holes to go. Constantly felt rushed from the players behind us with the Marshall following. If they didn't over book, it would've been a 5 star day.

A very enjoyable day!!

We were a twosome and played Woods and Hiils. Both were in excellent shape and the pace of play was perfect. We didn't experience any backlogs, nor did we have anyone coming up on us from behind. We finished our round in about 3 1/2 hours. Staff were very pleasant and helpful. A beautiful clubhouse and great food. We will definitely play here again!!

Flamborough Golf Course Review

Course was in great shape. We played as a two some, behind a two groups of three ladies. We couldn't keep up with them as they were playing ready golf. Nice to see people play at a pace to ensure golf is pleasurable. We played in 3 hours - 15 mins.

A Very Good Challenge

We played the Hills/Woods nines. It was a hot day yet because we teed off in the late afternoon the day turned out great. Course is in good shape. Lot's of challenging holes and many opportunities for shot making. I'd like to try the Woods/Lakes nines next time.

Awsome Golf Course

Amazing course for the money. Great use of the available terrain. course set up with 4 tee boxes. Average golfers to experienced pros will love it. Pace of play extremely good. 18 holes in under 4 hours. Very friendly pro shop, Restaurant is the best. Great value, excellent Chef. There are 3 nines, Lakes Woods and Hill. All have their moments but nothing too punishing.

Come out to their Sunday afternoon special 9 holes, dinner and entertainment You will really enjoy it.
