Royal Woodbine Golf Club
About
No challenge was overlooked in this brilliant Michael Hurdzan design. The 76 bunkers and water on every hole will keep your full attention on the game. The rewards are great and Royal Woodbine's beautifully conditioned fairways and greens make this championship course a real pleasure to play. Just minutes from downtown Toronto on the Mimico Creek Valley, this is one of the area's treasures.

Golfer Reviews
Noisy but still good
Once you block out the planes it's a good track. Great location and always in good shape. Used to be way overpriced but at $65 in prime time definitely worth it
Thank you for the great feedback! We look forward to seeing you again!
Great track
First time playing Woodbine last summer and can't wait to get back. Perfect for my level of golf.
waste of money
got to the course, check in was quick, but no one to help with clubs, had to put them on the cart ourselves, also no starter. we then found out that it was cart path only. big disappointment and no prior notice. then, fairways had been punched. and even worse the greens had been aerated and sanded. putting was impossible. it made for a long day. also their washrooms are johnny on the spot and were extremely dirty. what a turn off. we know that it is the end of the season, because of all the above, we would not return to this golf course.
Greens
All greens had been punched at time of play and heavily sanded. Not a fair price for the conditions of the greens.
Need to consider cheaper rates when greens are not playable or advise when booking a tee time
Mixed feelings
My schedule got in the way and I was stuck playing on Saturday. The pace of play on week ends is brutal, this course is a gem and plays right on the slope published.
Week ends bring out the casual layers who do not get it, and do not look at the slope, so you get slow pace of play. And cart path only did not help.
It would have been nice if we knew in advance that all par 3 were aerated.
Fortunately the marshalls helped us to get ahead of the beginners in front of us or else we would not have finished before dark. Problem in front of the beginners was a tournament, so we double up on holes in the front 9, a pain but better then just sitting and waiting.
Only negative ever for this course is pace of play, otherwise I love it and play it 15 to 20 times per season.
Hole in one!
Special round for me as I holed out on the par 3 14th. Beautiful day overall, great conditions, greens were perfect. Proximity to the city makes this a fav course of mine. Staff needs an attitude adjustment - not a very friendly bunch, especially the starter!
Da plane! Da plane!
If you haven't played here before, don't mind the planes...after all, you're at the airport! The course itself is a great test and is in very good condition for this time of year. Leave your egos at the door and play smart here. "Go big or go home" is not the mentality to have, as it's more target golf. A few gimmicky short par 4s which I'm not too fond of, but i think it gives the course character. Definitely will play this course again.
Over priced
Always pass by the course with my work office 5 mins away and never got a chance to play until now. Very disappointed with the course condition and pace of play. Definitely not worth the premium dollar these guys are changing. Staffs are great and welcoming but the course itself is not worth it. Dedicatedly should lose the word Royal from their name. The many planes landing every minute actually was entertaining and not much of a distraction. I quite enjoyed it while I waited for the two groups in front hitting from the gold tee with any of them hitting further than 80 yards each time. Not much Marshall's on the course considering it is so busy to keep pace.
Bring extra balls
Great challenging course with lots of twists and turns. Be sure you use the course map to strategize your play. The course is a great test of your game. Plus the added bonus of plane spotting every two minutes adds fun to the round.
Relax and enjoy.
If you like 6 hour rounds play here!
The pace was brutal--worst I have ever seen. And it was not just the typical three practice swings then stand over the ball for 30 seconds then hit it 50 yards player--it was the way the course booked for the day.
It was awful--I was praying for rain.
I will not play there again.
Loud with surprisingly abundant wildlife.
Landing jets passing overhead creates quite a din on opening and closing holes. There must be a furniture company adjacent to the 9th green, detectable from the strong smell of glue there. If you can get beyond these drawbacks this is a very nice course. A NW Wind makes it play much longer. Play can be very slow if you get behind a tournament (of which there are many) despite ample marshall staff. Greens reasonably fast and well groomed, as are bunkers and fairways. Course has been very creative in managing a large population of waterfowl. Rabbits abound and coyotes are quite bold. Water hazards in play on 13 of 18 wholes.
Past it's prime
Paying the golf now discounted rate makes this course a bargain. I wouldn't pay full price to play a short course like this. Coffee in the clubhouse is out of a kuirig machine and the only breakfast is Sara Lea muffins in the mini fridge.
That being said, the course was in nice shape and a great deal for $59
too close to airport
the planes fly right over head on a constant basis. far too close to the ground. the noise factor really spoils everything. I play to relax and the sounds of the jumbo jets ruin the experience. better going somewhere else for the price
Good Course but a Little Overpriced
Course is in very good shape. Pace of play was a little slow and the course is a little overpriced but that may be the price you pay to play this close to the city.
Woodbine
The rough needs cutting. Too many Marshalls that don't do anything
Always Nice To Play Here
Positives: Nice tough greens, fairways nicely maintained.
Negatives: Poor sand and they try to pack it in, so pace is long
Thank you very much for the feedback! We hope to see you again very soon!
