Bellmere Winds Golf Club
About
Situated in the center of Kawarthas on the northern shore of Rice Lake, Bellmere Winds Golf Club offers scenic views of the water from every hole. This 18-hole golf course features plenty of elevation changes and a few doglegs added in for more challenges. The topography causes a few uneven lies, it also makes the golf course very difficult to walk, and there are also natural ditches around the narrow fairways that can be treacherous to any errant shots. All of the par 3s have a pond and there are strategically placed sand bunkers throughout. Bellmere Winds Golf Club is conveniently located only 25 minutes from Peterborough.

Beautiful course - but....
Parking - limited due to construction. Be prepared.
Rental of clubs - my sister was visiting so she rented clubs. She was asked three times if she was right handed but out on course, found that three of her clubs were left handed. We had to share our wedges.They were absolutely filthy also!
Pace of play - horrendous - a fivesome was allowed to go out and while this may work with good players, we had to wait until they waited until the green was clear and then hit maybe a drive of 100 yards...so they hit another one - each of them! the group behind us played 15 instead of waiting on 13 and then they disappeared. I guess they were members or had had enough.
Friendly marshall came out on back nine but by then it was too late - we knew that we were in for a six hour round.
Drive back to Ottawa in Tornado weather just finished off my day!!

Always challenging
Really enjoy this course! Always tough but fair! No gimmicky holes!
Beautiful, scenic course
This is the 3rd year in row we have played this course en route to our annual golf weekend. We absolutely love this place! Great value, fabulous scenery, extremely well maintained. The staff was pleasant and helpful, really appreciated the tips we received at the start of our round regarding green speed, pin placement etc. We will be back next year!
Long and challenging and well worth the the visit
Long, well looked-after course a challenge for it's length and greens. Needs better amenities to be one of the best courses around
Tough Course
Course played very tough. Not a flat hole on the course, either up or downhill greens. Would like to see more visible yard markers.
Room for improvement
This is a beautiful and challenging course with vistas of Rice Lake at every turn. The value for the money is fantastic but lately the course conditions have been deteriorating somewhat. The club house is tiny but will eventually be rebuilt. Some of the holes are close to the new development of small cottages by the lake and the noise level distraction is greater. However, for the challenge and value of this overall beautiful course, it’s still one of the best places to golf in the Kawarthas.
Always a fun challenge
Scenic and well maintained course but it's time to improve the amenities (little food available and drinks, especially beer, costly) and the seating
Our experience
Overall had a good day. Had a couple of guys behind us that kept hitting their balls up our butts even though we were waiting for the group ahead of us. A marshal should have been on the course.
Beautiful Scenery
I am not a long enough hitter for this course. The scenery was amazing and the course is not suitable for walking because of the hills and rough terrain.
Fantastic
Very scenic course with lots of holes showcasing the lake.
Lots of elevation changes and fescue is prevelent on the front nine but get to the back and it's swing away!
Will be back!
Excellent Value
The Bellmere Winds Golf course provides a challenging round. Excellent grass conditions on the fairways and greens. My only complaint are the traps; they require sand.
Great Pace for us Seniors
Bellemere is an excellent course the views are spectacular. Even though it was very hot there was nice breeze off the lake. The course was very demanding for myself as there were a lot of holes where the flag was up a steep grade, but we made it great workout. Very well laid out and the pace was great for such a hot day. would definitely recommend to a friend.
Bob
Excellent course, my only complaints are the bunkers could have better sand and the clubhouse does not offer anly lunch/dinner food selections.
Awesome!
Love this course. Always in great shape with amazing views from almost every hole. Look forward to our next round here!
