Royal Ontario Golf Club

I found this course to be in very good shape. It's not very long (from the whites), so you can concentrate on accuracy off the tee. There is a good variety of holes, with plenty of hazards to get your attention. The greens were large and had a lot of slope to them. I have played the course several times using golfnow. The one time I didn't, I found it to be quite overpriced.

There are a lot of much better courses in the area which are cheaper. Even with the Golf Now rate the course was expensive for the level of service, and condition of the course.

The course was overbooked with waits on every hole. Even worse; the marshalls were telling the people waiting to hurry so they could start their tourney on schedule. Don't charge premium prices then run your course like conveyor belt. Don't expect paying customers accommodate your intentional overbooking by running through a round. Never again.

Arrived a little late (sorry) yet still not a hitch in the day. This is a great track and the value is amazing for Oakville with the rate we got. Pretty cute cart gal to, though, unfortunately, no Caesars!
This is one if my favorite (affordable) GTA courses. Cheers

The course is well maintained. Staff is super friendly. Beverage cart girl, Melody is a sweetie. Course was challenging but not rediculous.

I thoroughly enjoyed the course very nice greens good speed, fairways were firm and fast so the course didn't play as long as it might.
PACE OF PLAY was an issue for some in my group.
Marshall wasn't interested in speeding up offending groups as the "weather was so nice, so relax"
I had a lot of short wedge shots into greens should have played blues as a minimum, Only needed driver 4 times due to water and nothing gained by using it.
Want to go back but will definitely play blue or gold.

Good course and rate of play. Service was excellent and the staff at the pro shop were very accomodating.

Excellent course, but horribly slow, with rude, ineffective marshalls

A great course with some challenging holes, overall I like the course. On the service area it could use additional staff on some areas, for instance there was only one attendant serving at the bar and outside tables.

For this time of the year, I found the course to be in great condition. Greens and fairways are well maintained. Pace of play exceeded expectations as my twosome finished the round in less than 3 hours. I would recommend this course to everyone.

Overall, a challenging course that is well maintained. There are enough blind tee shots, slight doglegs, deep rough, fescue, and water to create issues requiring time to look for (lost) balls. I've played Royal Ontario enough to know that rounds can be slow if you, your partners, or the groups ahead of you miss the middle of the fairway, or go long on approach shots.
We did not see the food/beverage cart often on the course, so you may want to have a snack or drink in your bag when you tee off, or at the turn.
There is a decent range (mats only on the day we played), and a good chipping putting area to iron out the kinks before you step on the tee. Also, a very walkable course.

I played this course for the first time. It was well worth the great Golf Now Deal! $35 - less than half the reg green fee. It's introduced me to the course, and I'll come back with friends.

Nice club house, well groom flower beds, fairways and 1st cut were in great shape, greens are still a little long as its early in the season, but playable.

AS with other Kaneff courses I've played, it has a few 'goofy' holes, 292 par 4 that you can't hit more than 8 iron off the tee - just doesn't make sense!

We had a 'slower' group in front of us, and their etiquette took away from our experience (just play for the enjoyment of the game - 5 mins lining up a 4ft putt in a recreation game hmmm).

Thanks to Golf Town (even though I didn't appreciate the $6.80 plus taxes sir charge for completing the transaction) and thanks to Royal Niagara for offering a great deal!

This course requires concentration to post a good score. If you want a challege play this course. There is a lot of beautiful holes and a fair amount where water comes into play.

Well worth the money when booking through Golf Now, staff very friendly - helpful.

Pace of play (7:10 start) was great, played in just over 3 hours.

great value assuming you snagged a discount. not worth $100 but a great deal between 50-60. worth every penny. in great condition for being early in the year. with the exception of some rude members the day was good.

Course was in good condition. Weather was perfect. No waiting, moved along nicely. All in all an excellent outing

This course is beautiful, well groomed and has some spectacular views. But it is not for the first time player it's challenging. Well worth the money

When I got there I was told that the course had been rained on the night before and therefore the carts would be cart-path only. The practice green was incredibly slow, but I thought that this was an just an oversight. Well the course was very wet and, indeed, we needed to stay on the cart-path to protect the fairways which were very soft. But the greens felt like they were coated with glue. It felt like we needed a driver to get the ball to roll 25 feet. And this on a course that prides itself on the quality of their greens! I am not sure if this was just a temporary condition or an indication of what is being done, but I would not go back until they have worked on this.

Course is greening up nicely for early spring play. Disappointing that they don't provide a free bottle of water on the power carts anymore.

Firstly, staff is great! Always very helpful and ready to provide local course knowledge. Layout in my opinion tests ever facet of the game. Both long & short hitters will use every club in the bag. The 18th is a brute to cap off a great round. Have fun!
