Not worth the $
Terrible tee boxes, even worse bunkers, slow pace of pace with no marshalls out there. The second hole is a beautiful view but the green is borderline unplayable sue to all the geese droppings.The course is free to play if you stay at the resort and it shows in the effort they put into course maintenance. To pay 55 bucks (with cart) to play here should be illegal.
Signs would be nice
Big resort, lots of amenities, is there anyway someone could put some signs up directing you to the first tee from any of the parking lots?
Average course
Tees were in terrible condition, fairways were average, greens were okay, and sand traps were awful. Very disappointing for a resort golf course.
Very disappointing golf
Jammed in like sardines. Waiting everywhere hole much more than normal. 5 of nine holes are par 3’s. The course is not marketed as an executive course. The condition of the greens were brutal.
First and last time playing here.
It’s a great course for kids and beginners to learn on Should be $10 for nine holes. There are better executive courses with an honour system to pay in Ontario. This should be one of them.
Tough to beat for price
9 tee decks
9 holes
Fairways/bunkers/rough...got it all, nothing fancy. Cheapest fees in town make it easy to love!
Problem with contacting GOLFNOW
Hi - we had booked a round of golf for two and purchased the cancellation protection- because of heavy rain we cancelled more than an hour before we have reserved tee time - yet no credit or way to contact GOLFNOW to get our refund or credits - bad customer service
Beautiful scenery
The staff were excellent ! The course is very well maintained and very much worth it for the price
Good value but lacking
Given it is one of the few walkable courses in the area, it was nice to stretch the legs. The course has a pretty layout, and greens, fairways and tee boxes are in good shape, but bunkers haven’t seen any new sand or a rake in quite a while. The bag drop is in a strange place at the bottom of a hill you have to walk up to the Pro Shop, check in, then stroll back down. You park on the other side of the resort, so very convoluted. Also, get some garbage bins at the bag drop for everyone’s refuse.
Best bang for your buck
Lakeside is the most fairly priced course in muskoka.
Great people there too.
The only downside is the muddy bunkers
And it’s too bad they removed the back 9 holes
Opening day
Convenience store staff, pro shop staff and the Marshall were all 10 stars when it came to greeting us and ensuring everything we needed was in order before we started our round (best 9 hole course I’ve ever played) we will be back every year, on our way to open up the family cottage!!
