Golfer Reviews
Grand Niagara Experience
I used an UnderPar coupon for my first round at Grand Niagara. The course is a gem to play. It was a sunny, warm but windy day, with gusts close to 30 km/hr. If you hit fairways and greens, your only challenge will navigating be the speed and contour of the greens. I hit it all over, so getting out of bunkers and staying away from water will give mid-handicap players tee jitters!
It's best to take a cart with this layout, as there is quite a distance between certain tees. They have paved cart paths and the ride is smooth in the electric carts. The cart girl comes around regularly as well.
The course is in immaculate state, with beautifully cut tee boxes, fairways and the greens cut right down. The ball rolls true on the green, but with subtle breaks it becomes a great challenge to keep the 3 putts down. But don't forget the speed!
Staff were friendly and approachable. A great experience and a must play if you are in the Niagara region!
Very Good Course
Course layout is fantastic, course was in very good shape.
Staff was very friendly and helpful.
Best course in Niagara area
What an amazing day at the course. Beautiful sunny day, slight breeze and an immaculate conditioned golf course. One of the best golfing experiences I have ever had. The course is beautifully laid out, carpet fairways, strategically placed bunkers, eye catching water hazards and challenging greens make this course a pleasure to play. 10 out of 10..planning to return very soon.
Best course in Niagara
Played early morning on a Monday as a 3 ball and got round in 3 hours.
Greens were pristine, despite the fact that it rain very hard just before we played. They were still fast too. I’d think maybe 11 on the stump.
My only fault of the course would be the bunkers - although the rain didn’t help matters, they didn’t have too much sand in them. Perhaps I need more practise from those kind of traps ;-)
I would highly recommend this course to anyone in the area - for 90 bucks it really is a steal.
Unfriendly staff
We booked through golf now the evening before for a 7:10am tee time. Once I arrived to check in the pro shop employee said that my reservation wasn’t showing up. Him as well as a starter began to question me. I had to run all the way back to my car to prove I had the confirmation. They then sent us off immediately and paired us with two older gentleman that were walking. Myself and my partner (5 handicap) were told by the gentleman to play thru on the second hole. Round was going quick and smoothly until we approached the 7th green. We noticed that there was no flag on the green and that it was off to the side (this is the second time this year in two visits this has happened) we proceeded to finish the hole. Then 8th and 9th green... same result... no flag. We approached staff in the pro shop on the turn and they reported to us that “we are moving too quick and we need to slow down our pace of play”. I questioned “why have tee times before 7:30 if maintenance staff was unable to keep up with the flags, green” they just repeated that we had to slow down and let them do their job. We both stormed out with a lot of frustration to the rude, ignorant staff. As we were driving to the 10th tee, I was told by the starter that we shouldn’t have separated from the two older gentleman that let us thru “the flags would have been all ready if you stayed with them”.
In conclusion:
1) Start off not being on tee sheet having to deal with rude pro shop employee/ starter
2) Pairing us with two gentleman that were booked on the tee time after us
3) not having flags in holes 7,8,9... this was the second time in two visits this has happened
Grand Niagara
Staff were amazing right from the moment you drop your bag off. Pace of play was great. Well spaced out. Course sets up nice for you to have to use every club in your bag. (Played from golds). Will definitely be going back on my next trip to Niagara area
Awesome Course
My wife and I played this wonderful golf course today. From start to finish everything was great. All the staff were very friendly and accommodating. The course conditions were excellent.
The course itself is a fair challenge. We left a few strokes out there as it was our first time, but will return. I would recommend this course any day.
Greed Rules
I booked a 1:30 pm tee time for this day not knowing there is a shotgun start at 1 pm. There was no notification on Golf Now or in the Pro Shop. The course should not have had times open that close to the shotgun start. We caught the last group on #4. The rest of the day was slow as heck. Why didn't the groups start earlier or not have times after the shotgun start? GREED!!!!!
I am very disappointed in Grand Niagara.
Won't go back for some time. Garbage course management.
Day of tournament
I didnt appreciate course had tournament..still selling tee time.
In my experience would be nice to tell rest of the public about golf tournament. Which make things easy on golfer and course.
Gives me an option to book or look somewhere else.
My around was over 5 hours.
Instead of 4 or 4 1/2
Just close the course for two hours..
Until tournament almost done..
Few will agree others will disagree..
Great course with challenges for any level of golfers .good pace of play
Best public course in Area including Western New York.
Less than 15 minutes over Peace Bridge in southern Ontario Canada, you can’t beat it for pure golf. A gem by a Rees Jones.
Like putting on a pool table. So fast....
Very good drainage with all of the rain we have had. The greens are super fast and the fairways are excellent! Great course.
