Fun Public course

Enjoy the course , but they need to have a marshal to keep place of play going. Took 3 hours to play 9 holes, one group was 3 holes behind the group a head of them.

COVID Restrictions

On course washroom facilities closed made it a bit uncomfortable however halfway house and clubhouse washrooms available. Although I’ve played here for years absence of fairway yardage markers made it difficult for some first time visitors..

Overall a 5 rating for course condition, layout and pace of play, very picturesque golf course loving playing here.

Went well

Lots of golfers but moved well. We played in 4hrs and 15 minutes. Fairways were reduced in size by lazy greens keepers. They didn’t cut over 40% of the actual fairway. This slows play. Cut out about 30 yards on both sides of the fairway.

Nice course

Everything was good except the grass is too long off the fairways and balls disappear instantly..

Beautiful scenery, hilly course

Always enjoy playing Chedoke Martin. The escarpment is a beautiful backdrop and it is a good value for the price. Fairways were a little on the long side today -- even lost a ball on a drive that was right down the middle! Definitely take a cart unless you are a fan of walking lots of hills.
