At least try once?

I was excited to play Grand Niagara for the first time after much anticipation, however, I do have mixed feelings for the course.

The greens are definitely within a handful of great greens in Niagara and overall the course is well manicured.

Tee to green this isn't the most stressful course in the area other than being long and par is a great score on any of the holes.

I can't really justify the high price tag and hype considering there are at least a handful of courses that I have played comparable in challenge, enjoyment and scenic at a fraction of the price with it's own character.

I felt this course lacked character. No theme or hole speaks out to me.

If you are looking for value this isn't the course but it was nice to play a high profile course at least once.

Great Course in Great Condition... Will play again!

I read the reviews and golfed with a business contact that had played the course before. This course is a gem. Good value for the excellent challenge ahead for any golfer of any level. I cannot believe how great the condition of the course was for this time of year.

The staff greeted us and got our cart ready. We took advantage of the driving range and putting green to warm up prior to the round. There was no rush whatsoever throughout our entire experience.

The wind does play a factor but not enough to ruin the round (especially for those low trajectory shooters).

Would definitely take the hour drive again to play a round of great golf!!!

Most satural and beautiful course in Niagara

horrible day of cold weather and drizzle and wind. Bitterly cold but enjoyed the course immensely. We played best ball from the black tees where the course is even more interesting. Simply wonderful course.

Great course .

This course is not for the faint of heart. Beautiful layout, with large challenging greens . The greens are well protected with water and numerous sand traps. A great course that you will want to play again.

Grand Niagara

The name says it all. The course was in great shape. The greens are challenging but nice to play as they were very quick.
Would recommend this course to anyone who wants to play one of the best in the Niagara area.
Would like to see some special rates for the local residents, but still a good value for the course.

would not pay more than $65 from golf now

I played on Monday Sept 29th as a single. I joined up with 2 other great guys. Play was slow because of a fox delay. I had heard great things about this course so I decided to play it with a golf now deal of $65.

I found this course to be no better than legends. For the money usually cheaper play either of the Legends courses.

I would go back to Legends but not Grand Niagara.
The course condition was good but not as good asI thought. No real clubhouse.

Very nice course.

Grand Niagara is one of the nicest courses in the Niagara area. The course is very challenging and is always in great shape.
The only real knock against the course is the price.

Great condition, need to improve on pace of play

Great condition as one would expect from this course. The pace of play was great for the 1st 9 holes but for some unknown reason we went into a log jam from the 11th onwards, having to wait at least 5 minutes each hole, which really adds up to the overall time, and there were no marshalls around. It would have been a great round if not somwhat spoiled by the pace of play. Staff was very friendly.

We here it from time to time that are prices are high. Consider our twenty (20) game pack of golf.ride. Nets to $75/per- good seven (7) days a week. With your 4-some- that gets you five (5) rounds over the course of the season. bc

Amazing

The Staff here are incredible. Excellent Service. the Fairways and greens are best we have seen in Niagara. This course is top notch! Lots of sand traps, greens are FAST. I am a fairly new golfer, long play from the woman's tees but I had the best round of golf I have ever played. We will definitely be back to this course. Well worth the money. Best golf experience yet.

Best Course In NIagara Region

A very honest course. What you see is what you get.
Lots of room off the tee. After that it tightens up. I understand that there have been ownership issues in the past but, one feels that a more impressive clubhouse would be in order for such a good facility.

Practice Range

The range needs a practice bunker because many of the approach shots into the greens require carries over some large, deep bunkers. My bunker play on the day of play was poor and I could have definitely used some sand practice,

Awesome

Played about 50 rounds in Ontario this year and this course by far has been the best one. Pristine condition and great layout. Couldn't ask for anything more. Only knock would be The Grill really doesn't match how good this course is but really that's secondary anyway.

This course was in great shape,greens were rolling true.

We loved the everything about the golf aspect of the trip,the course,personal,the only problem we had was the wind.It was awful,it made the game bad because by the 11th hole we were frustrated with it,at some times we had to club up twice to get the proper distance.We want to go back again but only if we know the wind wont be as bad.
