Royal Ontario Golf Club

I've played RO many times before and have enjoyed it thoroughly; great course - - challenging but fair. That was until yesterday; the pin placements were just way to difficult to hit, especially on 18 where it was impossible to hold the green if faced with a downhill putt. I was lucky to at least stay on the fringe, unlike my playing partners, who ended up at the bottom of the hill.
Overall, we were happy with everything else... But it seemed like someone was having too much fun placing the pins.

I've played this course many times and it is fun to play. For the first time, I had lunch with a business guest before the round - what a mistake! I have a gluten-free requirement and this kitchen is stuck in the stone age. The only option was salad - oh well. I ordered the greek salad ($6.95) with grilled chicken (extra $6.95) and received a side salad with a few chunks of chicken on top. So, if you are planning an event or, god forbid, a wedding - do your homework as they jip you on the food.

Golf was great however, like the course and will play it again.

Not worth the advertised price of $100 +
Greens in really poor shape and look like they havent been rolled.
Too many fresh and old pitch marks to count.
Carts not checked before round, no water in club cleaner and little sand in divot box.
Overall not worth the price.
Dissapointed especially as its a Kaneff course that is supposed to set a higher standard

Beautiful course in great condition. We played early and finished just under 4 hours. Felt like we were the only ones on course. Very satisfying round.

The workers didn't realize we wear playing. Never stop or tour off the machines

Course is beaten up. Tee box have huge divots. Grounds crew maintain the course while you're playing instead of pulling aside or stop the mower while you're putting.

Amazing day, great conditions and the course was in excellent condition also. The pace of play was really slow. The foursome in front of us was taking mulligans every hole playing from the gold tee's. Didn't see a marshal all day, the only thing that ruined almost a perfect day

The pace was terrible, and there were no Marshals around on a Saturday afternoon.
Very disappointing!

This course was a lot of fun to play and was a good challenge. It was in great shape and the greens really challenge your game. Only negative was the lack of etiquette of greens crew. Staring to mow tees when we were preparing to hit. Mowing around fringe when we were putting. We didn't need silence but be respectful.

Great test of golf, will make me a better player , various shots needed, super greens .
Will play here again

The second time playing the course will make it more challenging now that I know the layout,

As with Lionhead, RO is simply immaculate. It has a private club feel and is priced well.
I enjoyed the variance in shot decisions throughout the course. If there is one gripe its that the front nine has several very tight shots and for a first time player this can be daunting.
I look forward to playing RO again.

Thought the course was very aesthetic, challenging and a great addition as a go to track, would recommend playing, only quarrel is there is a number of blind shots off the tee that would be frustrating for a golfer playing there the first time, luckily enough we got paired up with a golfer who played the course before to guide us off the tee..

The one problem with Royal Ontario is that it takes a long time to play. Fortunately, this time my partner and I were able to play through several foursomes, thank you to all that let us through.

The course was in great condition except for sand bunkers that were thin,

A great course to play; challenging but not too challenging. The staff looking after the carts were very friendly and helpful.

This is a challenging and scenic golf course. Would not hesitate to play it again and again.

We have learned that in order to play here under 4.5 hours you need to play before 7 am. For some reason they always get behind and you end up with rounds lasting more than 4.5 hours. We played at 608 am as a 2some and played in just over 3 hours. AWESOME. Greens were rolling nice and the recent rain has the rough very thick.
All in all a very good day.

The course was in good condition, the pace of play was good, but a course Marshall tarnished the experience. All other staff were top notch.

The course is generally playable off the tee but the approach shots are challenging as there isn't a lot of forgiveness if you miss the greens by too much. The food was ok but very slow. In fairness to staff, it was a busy day and only one bartender and one waitress were there that day.

I come from Scarborough to play this course that is well groom in great shape and the staff treat you very well, challenging trap that should be played by all once and you will go back. It's worth the drive to ......... Halton !!!!
