Played in 3 hours as the course was not busy. Very forgiving layout for sprayed shots.

First played the original layout when this course opened as 18 holes about 15 years ago. We won't wait another 15 years to return!

Great short course for a quick round.

Rain slowed the greens down quite a bit, but overall the course was great. Quick round with a good assortment of holes. Definitely not a course for people looking to smash the ball 300 yards every hole.

slow pace of play

we teed off in the afternoon and no problems with the pace of play until we came upon a threesome walking and the three players had no respect for the rest of the players. They were so slow that the back nine was done in 3 hours! We let a twosome and a single through and we were constantly waiting at the tee box to hit after the both groups to a twosome. then there was a twosome walking and sometimes a 3 some waiting to hit after us.

Decent course

round moved quickly which is not always the case on a public course. No washrooms on course was a bit of an issue.

Course overall is decent, reasonably challenging. A bit expensive for what it is though.

Had fun, nice greens

Enjoyable course, nice greens. Too many geese in the fairways. Golf carts are pretty quick. Hotdogs are a bit pricey.

Cobalt course is a little more challenging than the Ruby course, reasonably priced, both courses are in good shape, I always enjoy myself at Granite Ridge.

Poor conditions, course has potential.

The course needs cutting. The turf staff are not respectful of nearby players. Better management is desperately needed.

Good course; always good service

I have always enjoyed playing at Granite Ridge. The staff is great; the course is challenging enough to be fun. The rough is thick so keep it in the fairway!

Still a gem in Milton area!

Looking for a championship course that won't break the bank and provide you with various looks and challenges? Play Cobalt. It still remains a good little gem in the Milton area. Pack patience however. Some patrons do take their time. :(

A really nice layout; water hazards on many fairways; fairways a bit wet; greens large and undulating but in exceptionally good condition.

Very enjoyable playing this course. Because of spring rains, was cart path only. All in all, great course conditions for early summer. We got a really good golfnow "hot deal" rate which made the value great; with regular green fees, the value would be no more than average.

Pro Shop has issues

Pro Shop would not allow you to check in until 15 min before your start time. Can't load up the cart and get ready. Aren't you supposed to be there at least 30 min before your tee off time?

Well maintained still early in the season.

Would have been better if the course was dry but it's spring and it has been wet. Prices are to high for this time of the year.

Course not as good as last year

I will not return.
Very disappointed by overcrowding and poor course conditions.
I played the Ruby course the past 4 years, this was the worst ever, with uneven cuts on greens and even the tee boxes.

Why did carts have to stay on the cart paths?

I have never been at a course where carts always had to stay on the cart paths. I understand that carts can damage the fairways when it is wet, but this "cart paths only" policy is full-time at Granite Ridge. This made the round so much longer, as the couple we played with would park their cart (on the path), walk to the middle of the fairway to their ball, then go back to the cart for their club! If I had known about this policy, I would have walked! It would have been quicker! Also, there were no marshalls in evidence to ensure that groups kept up the pace -- made for a long round (over 5 hours). The course is beautiful and well maintained, but when 18 holes takes this long, the focus tends to be on finishing before dark.

The course is short but many challenges

The course was not busy because of fall and threat of rain. It is beautiful set under the escarpment with the changing of the leaves.

The Escarpment provides a great scenery for an enjoyable round.

Choosing the right time of day to play provides for good pace of play.
