Royal Ontario Golf Club

I golf often but usually at same course. Really enjoyed this course. Very good condition.

Booked through Golfnow.com as a single player. I was paired up with another person who also had the same type of booking. There was no starter to control the T box; many groups who started at 10 turned up at first T to continue their game. There was a big line up so we went to the pro shop to report the matter as well to ask whether an we also start from 10. They said we can't start at 10 and asked us to go back 1 and wait ; somebody will be there shortly to control the situation. Nobody turned up after even after 10 minutes. By then we had very well passed our booked T time. Seeing our miserable condition one of the foursome groups waiting there was nice enough to let us go in front of them . So we started our game. Fairways were nicely maintained but some of the greens were no up this clubs standard. Expected more professionalism for sure. The cart given to us ran out of battery power at hole 18. We had to push the cart uphill to the cart return area.

First time playing RO, I had heard a lot of good things about the course.
The course is a little untidy (rough, fringe, 1st cut un kept etc) and the greens need some work but I very much enjoyed playing here. Would not pay full price mind you.

will be back!

Just an all around great course. Challenging but Fair!

Friendly staff on a well maintained course with lots of trouble if you're in the wrong place. Overall, a fair but challenging test. We plan on playing there again soon.

My score did not reflect my enjoyment of the course. I wandered into the rough way too often and paid the price. The scenery is lovely, and the course is mostly flat, but shot placement is important.

Very nice course, and well maintained, but greens need a bit of work. Overall with the golf now discount, it was a great deal. Definitely not worth paying the regular price of $120/person. Course was fairly slow. No one on for a while, so my group went on a half an hour early, after hitting a bucket at the driving range. Marshall came chasing us towards the end of the first hole to complain that it was not our proper tee off time. Hardly any golfers there. I understand if course is somewhat busy, but not when really slow.

This golf course was in great shape . We liked the layout it was a great day definitely play again.

Coarse was in reasonable good shape. Some of the bunkers didn't have enough sand in them. The greens were a little bit torn up probably from traffic and there were the remains of other golfers not repairing there divots. On a whole the coarse is a good challenge for your game and requires coarse management and not just the long ball. I would and have recommended this coarse to anybody.

The course was in great shape and really tough to score on. The eleventh green pin placement was diabolical. Overall a great outing that leaves you wanting another chance to play it

The course did not have a single marshall out. Several groups were very slow. Round ended up being 5:15, way too long! I have found this with all Kaneff courses on the weekends.

Practice your putting before, practice your putting before,, hope I am clear !!! Enjoy

No starter was present and the only marshal we saw appeared to spend his afternoon searching for lost balls. Greens were quick but beaten up by tournament play. Fairways and bunkers were well kept. Water hazard margins are overgrown with cattails and not clearly visible from the tees. This along with undulating and dog-legged fairways yield a course where a GPS is a necessity. Practice range was closed. Design was quite interesting. This could be a lot better course with a few management tweaks.

Layout was nice, but greens and fairways were in rough condition. Practice facilities were so-so. Sand bunker practice area has been completely neglected. But this course gets a mulligan with me due to a very busy tee sheet and a harsh winter.

A great course to challenge you in ball placement, a definite second round will change your risk/reward shots!

The course was beyond our expertise, we shot about 100. Found fairways too narrow for our game level and too many obstructions going across the fairway that you needed to shot over, greens were very undulating , 1 puts were rare, rained day before so sand bunkers were not really sand but powdery clay material, sand wedge could not get under the ball.. It just bounced off the hard surface creating a skull most times.

course is challenging but a lot of fun.

Play from blue tee is much longer than white, some holes need strategic long drive to hit the safe landing pad. Par 5 9, 18 hole are pretty, long, with a big pond along the fair way, with elevated greens. drive, 2nd shot have to be long and accurate to make a possible birdie chance..

This course will challenge any level of golfer. Every hole is unique. You never feel that you are playing the same version of a previous hole. The 9th and 18th holes are two of the best finishing holes that I have ever played.

Played here on the long weekend the course was wide open. Great track with nice scenery! Played an extra 9 holes
