Royal Woodbine Golf Club

There was a frost delay and they called me to advise. I had an early tee off so it was nice that I could stay home another hour to avoid rush hour and relax. A1 course.

course has been in very good shape all year. even at this time of year greens were true and fast. just wish golfers would show more respect and fix divots, seems to be an issue everywhere!

fun course, played in under 4 1/2 hrs.

great use of land in that area and there is an airshow daily...

A great course, although the amount of passenger planes landing at nearby airport was a little distracting

Course layout is exactly how I remembered it from last play about 12 years ago which was greally aND wit some challenging holes. Lots of strategy requipped to get around safely. Unfortunately little is being spent on course maintenance. I can understand keeping the greens a little long, due to the recent heat wave however, the grass wasn't manicured at all. Grass and weeds growing in the bunkers. Don't know how because the bunkers were hard a cement. Too bad they don't put their expensive green fees back into course maintenance. Not to mentioned the halfway house closed early leaving us without food. We were told that the cart girl had sandwiches but she didn't.

Had a few hours between flights and this was a perfect fit.

Great rates

friendly staff

Course plays very slow..

Especially of the first tee.. A bit pricey too..

Too many golfers looking for lost balls..

The course is pretty scenic but the conditions

are poor..

Interesting track. If it weren't for the planes overhead you'd never know you were in the city

I played on the way out of town on a beautiful, hot day. The staff looked after my luggage, and let me use the locker room to freshen up after I finished. I even got to play with a part time marshal named Sven, who knew the course like the back of his hand. He couldn't cure my nasty pulls, but I appreciated his knowledge. It was my third time playing the course, and the conditions were consistent. The greens were well kept, and the holes were crisply cut. So important for those putts that are fading away from the cup. I love golfing in Canada. I always meet interesting and friendly people, Royal Woodbine was a blast all three times. Thank you.

they have to rake those bunkers just terrible for a high end course

This course was not designed well, unless you enjoy losing a lot of balls. Balls driven straight down the fairway, lost in the water. Miss the fairway, lost in the woods. If you can't hit a patch of grass that's 30y by 30y every shot, you will lose a lot of balls. Also, because everyone looses so many balls, the course plays really slow, took over 5 hours to play 18. People are searching for lost balls and wasting a lot of time.

Pace of play was extraordinarily slow for a Tuesday morning! We waited on every hole for every shot. There were 2 groups waiting on one tee deck at one point. There were no marshals anywhere to help regulate the pace of play. The halfway hut wasn't open and the refreshment cart met us on the 2nd and 18th hole - NOT HELPFUL when you play an epically long round!

The course itself was in good condition. I've played this course many times before and this experience was sooo bad, I won't likely be back in a long time.
