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.

Resort style course.
I have played this course many times ( close to the cottage) and when the course was is in earliest stages. Hole 1 use to be par 5 490..good opening hole, now a short par 4 to make room for the new cottages on the left of hole1. Greens are superb.... fairways pristine... and 1st cut rough thick.. which makes up for only 3 par 5s on the course. The only thing that needs to be amended is the score card yardage and gps which is a nice add on to the carts is they need to match.. some holes off the tee block were off by like 25 to 35 yards. Course was busy for a early Thursday morning round and seemed steady through the day.
Course has come a long way. Keep it up!!!
Horrible!!!
When we got there, there was about 16 people at least waiting for carts, they didn’t have enough- they were waaaay overbooked. Anything to get money through the door I guess. people were teeing off 45 minutes late, when we finally got a cart and got to the first tee (45min after tee time ) , we were behind a group of 8, they were taking 4-5 practice shots , walking to each persons ball and hitting, they were taking forever we were waiting 10-15 minutes a hole. We didn’t even finish the ninth hole and we had been there over 3 hours. We paid for 18 and only got to play 8. This is the most poorly run golf course I have ever been to. None of the staff knew what was going on. Never golfing there again. We didn’t even golf the 9 holes with the view.
Pace of play is very slow-no marshalls
Course in great shape. Greens excellent and tee blocks as well. Played the front nine at a good pace but a group of 3 cut in after stopping for lunch at 10 and would not let us play through .We waited on every hole before teeing off and no one in front of them. One player did not have any clubs so group exchanged clubs on every hole. Rule is to allow faster players to play through but this group very oblivious to the concept. No marshall so we waited on every shot for 9 holes. Not fun.
Beautiful Course
If you have the opportunity, play this course. It is absolutely beautiful. You can see Rice Lake from every hole. It is one of the most scenic courses we have ever played. The carts are equipped with GPS,. There are plenty of elevated tees. The staff are very friendly and helpful. Great Course!
Course Layout
I think it’s from the 12th to the 13th hole is where there should be a bit better signage for where to go. The overall course is astounding but I did get a bit lost and turned around at the crossroads by I think it was 12 to 13 and I found myself at the 15th tee box
Lovely to look at, tough to play
Course in generally very good condition. Glad to see work being done on the cart paths.
Lovely views, as always and pace of play great this time.
Nice mix of holes
Course was in good condition, greens were smooth to not overly fast. Views of rice lake were really nice. Cart paths were brutally rough, very hard on you back. Hopefully they plan to pave them. Front 9 plays Alittle tougher than back 9,deep fescue lines most of the fairways making holes look well framed. Would recommend playing this course.
Great course, excellent greens
Great course, some reviews and people I’ve spoken with talk about the poor cart path conditions, but with the elevation changes and all the rain, what can you expect. Maybe 3-4 paths are washed out, but if you drive properly, you won’t have an issue.
One piece of advice.... mark the pins with front, middle and back flags. There are a number of elevated and multi tiered greens, knowing where the pin is located can be helpful.
Fine course badly mauled
Bellemere Winds is a scenic and challenging course
Unfortunately, the wet weather we've been experiencing has left parts of the course wet and other parts chewed up by ??? travelling over the wet ground
Work needs to be done on the cart paths as well
Over Booked
Arrived 20 minutes early for our scheduled tee time and were told we just had to wait for carts to come in as they were all in use. Over an hour after our scheduled tee time we finally got on the course. Pace of play was very slow and no Marshalls in sight to keep people moving.
Despite the wet conditions, the course was in great shape. Nothing the grounds crew can do about all the water lately. Kudos to the maintenance group for doing a great job
Great course!
Unfortunately the pace of play was hindered greatly by the group in front. Also there was some sort of a mix up with the carts. I guess I was unlucky, the staff we're great and the course was relatively dry for the most part even with the super wet start to the season which was nice! Greens were fast and the fairways were pretty.
