Tucked away in the scenic Niagara Escarpment, Lowville Golf Club offers scenic views of the greater Toronto area. The layout blends seamlessly with the natural landscape, creating a picturesque golf setting that the Toronto Star's "Bogey Man" has touted as the most scenic in the area. The golf course has also received top honors from the same publication as the most improved club. This challenging, 18-hole course features several downhill tee shots that can really carry, making it a fun course for long hitters. Lowville Golf Club's 12th hole is notably entertaining. It is a long par-5 that requires a long carry off the tee to a tricky green.

Outstanding

Beautiful course carved in to the side of the Niagara Escarpment. Panoramic views looking north east. The course has some challenging holes. @ suggestions. I wouldn't play from the tips unless you're a 6 handicap and I would 't walk it. Friendly staff and my son and I played the course in under 4 hours.

Lowville review

Course in good condition. Traps were true sand traps, which is a good thing when you end up in one. The vistas from different elevations are gorgeous. The only complaint was the greens were pretty woolly... would have liked them faster and truer like they have been in the past. Perhaps they just needed to be rolled and cut - it was a VERY hot day - so that could be why they were not cut. Overall - I enjoy playing Lowville and usually score true or better to my handicap.

Great day

Course is in excellent shape. Back 9 roughs were a
little longer and made for nice challenge if off the fairway. Greens were medium fast and firm. Traps were soft and very playable. All in all wouldn't change a thing.

Never Disappoints. Great Value!

Other than some of the greens being a little banged up as a result of the long winter, the course is in excellent shape. Interesting layout keeps you visually entertained and the views in the plateau tee blocks give you a nice look at the escarpment. I look to golf now for the deal to play here, and I'll certainly do it again.

Scenic Serenity

If you enjoy the view as much as the course than the hoile itself Lowville takes some beating. Built on prime property on Niagara Escarpment the views are eye catching. Overall conditions were good. We played 9 holes starting just before 5 pm and finished in just under 2 hrs with no waiting and nobody pushing us from behind.

Beautiful cut holes

I really enjoyed playing this course again, it's been 9 years between visits and the condition has not changed. Very good! Two small downfalls that I would like the staff to look into are: 1)the bunkers on the front 9 are a little sub par, but that could be fix if I didn't hit in them so much. #2) the signs that Guide you to the next tees are extremely poor, this was not a problem because of the amazing Marshal helping us out, but without him, "CONFUSING"!!.
All in all, a recommendation to all handy cap golfers out there.

Fastest 18 played

We have played Lowville before but this time was great. We went out at 7am and finished at 10am. The Marshall asked one group to get us through (after 3 holes) and our pace of place continued. The course is in very good conditions. Greens are getting better after a tough winter. We will defiantly play again!

Nice views, friendly staff

Had a 7.33 start. Starter moved us ahead of a four ball which enabled us to finish in 2hrs 40 mins. We played off the blue markers but should have played off the Gold. Plays very short apart from a couple of uphill holes. Nice layout and look forward to playing it again.

Scenic course; inconsistent greens

This course in my opinion had some pretty nice views, was for the most part in decent condition but I thought that the greens were pretty inconsistent; mainly slow.

If you're walking it (which we did), be prepared for a bit of a workout/hike. The elevations make it feel like you're on a stair climber machine at times!

All this aside and considering the Golfnow Hot deal price we paid, I suppose I shouldn't complain!

Picturesque

Love golfing at this course. It is beautiful and has some challenges but very playable at the same time. Greens can be a challenge (although I had 5 one putts!!). This course suffered some winter damage as did most others in the area, but it is recovering nicely and is well maintained.

Pace and poor greens, but value is there during twlight

As stated in the title of my review. The pace was extreamley slow, but the my main complaint would be the condition of the greens. They were brutal to the point where I'd say they might eb the worst I've ever played on during peak season. Granted there are times (oct) when air raiding makes putting diffucult, but this is june. Fairways where in perfect condition, and tee boxes were avg. If you can find a deal to play here I'd recommend it, however I'd never recommend paying full price to golf here.

Great Round!

An extremely picturesque golf course with friendly staff and challenging golf. You HAVE TO at least try this course. It is built so most holes either climb or descend the escarpment, resulting in very few level lies.

Many holes have at least some significant risk from the tee box but most also have a "safer route" for the cautious golfer also. If you lack control on your drives there are several holes where you may want to choose a fairway wood if you hit those straighter.

Many Burlington courses took a lot of damage this winter and are working hard to recover. Lowville is actually in excellent shape compared to the other two I've played so far this year. The only blemish I recall other than a few "ground under repair" areas (free drop), was that greens had some rough spots. Regular rough was reasonably challenging and, if you hit into the really long stuff... forget about that ball and reload.
It was a packed card on a beautiful Saturday. Marshals were present discretely encouraging the pace of play in a friendly way.
We visited the clubhouse afterward and had a pleasant experience with all staff encountered and had a great sausage on a bun.

Winter Damage

I have played this course many times, but this was the first time this season, the greens are in pretty rough shape. For the amount this course charges and I know they fill tee times everyday, I just feel a little more grounds keeping could be done. Re doing the greens at the beginning of the year early and dropping prices well temp greens were in place might have been an option.
Fairways are pretty rough as well. It was a bad winter here so I get it.

Course in decent shape; super busy though

Played with my pops and brothers a few weeks ago and the course was in fairly decent shape. I was concerned after reading reviews about the greens but they were OK considering the winter we had. That said, they still had two temps and a few of them were still worse for wear. I know they'll be cleaner once we get a streak of hot weather, but worth calling out. All around it was great but the pace was incredibly slow. We were log jammed getting out and to try and speed things up the starter kept firing guys off. We'd hit and wait virtually every shot.. so no consistency or momentum. Nonetheless I'll be back, but wanted to be honest in my review.

Long and hilly

the greens are in really bad shape, I guess because of a tough winter. The course is a very tough walk as elevation changes are significant. 9 out of 10 players could not walk 18 out here. Lovely views though of the GTA area
