Good golf value in Forest, Ontario

My wife and I played during a short vacation in the Forest area.

Per other reviews, the course is short so it favours someone who doesn't hit a long ball off the tee. However, there is lots of water hazards, mature trees and other things that make the round challenging. Greens were in decent shape. Fairways were also in good shape. The island-green was a nice surprise.

We enjoyed our round and will be back before the season is over.

Very scenic

Animal life around the course was exceptional and enjoyed it very much. Greens and fairways were in excellent condition and with many challenges if you so wish to take. We definetly will be back to do 27 holes because my wife was not worn out after 18 and this was probably due to the length of the course. Great course for your short game.

Nice little getaway

My son and I played here for a little outing. It was moderately priced and fun to play. It has its challenging holes, especially the 'island' green. We both landed on, but, can imagine how many balls would have found a resting place at the bottom of the water that surrounds 75% of the green. The 17th offers a high tee area to a low green that has a little creek running in front of it and trees behind it. Nice to land on it and get my par!! We ate the fish (got TWO pieces) with the home fries and coleslaw. It was excellent and we enjoyed!! Beers were a bit pricey. Overall nice outing to Forest. Will go again.

Excellent Customer Service

Customer service at this golf course was top notch. There was a problem with unruly guests in a tournament ahead of us, and the staff dealt with it very professionally, and made it right. Best customer service I have experienced in a while. We will definitely return.
