Royal Woodbine Golf Club

A friend and I played Royal Woodbine to see if we wanted to join as members next year. We arrived 30 minutes early to allow us to warm up. Despite having booked for 9:40am, the clubhouse told us our tee time was 9:30. We reported to the starter at 9:15 and were told to go immediately to the first tee and tee off with another couple. So very rushed and no time to put or warm up. The course was in reasonable condition, although 3 greens were being sanded and thus virtually unplayable (no discount on the fees though). The course has numerous doglegs left or holes requiring draws. So it plays well for left-handed golfers but not so much for right-handed golfers. The slope in some of the greens is excessive, to the point I would consider them unfair. The course is directly under the flight path of planes landing at Pearson airport, so constant noise and distraction. The course also borders industrial areas and highways - again constant noise. After the round we wanted to get some food and were told the club house was closed and we could only sit outside. The waiting staff were not friendly. While the food was tasty, it was overpriced. Overall, the course is over priced. The location is very convenient if you're in the west GTA, but as a local resident I wouldn't want to play here more than once every 5 years or so. And no, we won't be joining as members next season.

Little pricy but there always are good and bad anyway

A perfect layout in that it punishes bad shots and rewards good shots.

I have never been so disappointed with a course. I’ve played this course many times over the years, mainly for its convenience and definitely not the value. But my last round was the straw that broke the camels back. I paid $288 for a twosome and when I say the course was bad, I’m being extremely nice. Greens were running at an 8 maybe 8.5. T box’s were aweful, unlevel and looked like they hadn’t had any maintenance this year. The greens were the worst I’ve ever seen them and it was because of the greens is why I complained. When I spoke to the Pro Sean, he actually compared this course to Dentonia or Centennial. It was such a ridiculous comparison that I laughed and had to walk away. For all of you real golfers out there, this course is an absolute rip off and I’d advise you to stay clear. It’s so convenient for me, that one would think I’d play there all the time. I’ve played almost 50 rounds this year and only 2 have been at this garbage course because I’d had very little time and wanted to play some where. I’d give this course a lower rating than 1 star if I could, but unfortunately that wasn’t an option presented to me.

poor ocnditions shoul doffer a discount very poor value

three groups on hole 6

Play here if you suck as a golfer.

Play here if you don’t like money.

Play here if you live in the city and take the bus.

Overprice and under maintained course piece of Play is extremely slow. Bookings are too packed boxes are horrible. Would never go again.

airport nearby，plane fly through often，hard to focus to play golf

Robbery how much it costs to play at this below average course. Maintenance is terrible. Cut the grass!!!! Fix the bunkers!!! Repair the tee box!!! So many neglected areas of this golf course make this place not worth the money. IMO there are so many other courses for less.

All in $140 PP and so NOT worth the money.

Maintenance is a huge issue to say the least. 4-5 bunkers under construction. Grass not cut properly. Tee boxes were horrible. No seed for divots. Such a disappointing golf course which is unfortunate as it’s in the city. Hire some young students in the summer to help maintain the place…
