In excellent condition after a hard winter
I was impressed with the condition of the course to a very hard winter. The greens were consistent, the fairways lush, and most of the bunkers were also predictable. Unfortunately, some of the bunkers still contain "sandbox sand"which is sticky compared to the excellent white sand in the others. Overall, the course was a real pleasure to play and I think reinforces Grand Niagara's reputation as the best course in the Niagara Peninsula.
great golf
The best course in Niagara but a little to pricey maybe golfnow could help reduce the green fees
Worth the drive
Great course still in pretty good condition even on the 28th of October, pretty wet fairways though, not many leaves on the course.
Great design, great staff
I'll be back next year in summer time
Best Golf Course in Niagara
The heading of the review sums it up. I do not believe that people realize how good this course is in terms of design and condition. We should really take advantage of the opportunity to play a Rees Jones course in our backyard. This course is very capable of hosting a PGA tournament but due to the money woes they have never made the clubhouse to suit the course. The only thing that I don't understand is if the course is not busy and has had money trouble in the past would you not try to market it in a different way? $70-$90 green fees in Niagara is way out of wack....the economy will not support that. I realize the probable clientele is the Toronto market but that will go only so far. Then the line will be green fees vs number of players vs course condition. Overall, if you haven't played here it's a must. Enjoy it.
I have to wonder if a designer ever regrets making a course to attach his name to? When he built this course it was supposed to be a highlight of a complex with a Greg Norman course, condos etc. that fell through.....but hey - it's good for us to have such quality nearby.
Expect the hardest, most difficult, fast greens in the area that has subtle breaks that are hard to see.....my suggestion is to look at the break from both sides of the hole....it may change your outlook.
I found the course was in fantastic shape, from the T's to the greens.
I would recommend this course to anyone. The staff are super friendly and make you feel right at home. I can see why they say that this is the best course in the Niagara Region.
Totally Awesome
This course is Totally Awesome!!! It reminds me of the brilliantly designed and maticulously maintained courses of Myrtle Beach.
Every aspect of this course from tees, fairways, bunkers and greens are in pristine condition. The staff are friendly and courteous and every hole is both challenging and fun to play! The clubhouse is small but luxurious and the pricetag of this golfing experience is more than worth it!
Course is laid out very well
Course is challenging and blends in with the land features very well. The sand traps were flooded out because of all of the over night rain.Doesn,t look like the course drains very well.Over all a very nice experience.Af
best public course in niagara
I enjoyed this course immensely. No matter how busy it is you always feel like you're the only one on the course at all times.
Tee boxes were true and well kept. Fairways were like carpet.
the greens play just like you would imagine a PGA course would.
Challenging links style course.
Beautifully challenging links style course. Course is in pristine condition.
Deep bunkers protecting the greens make for a challenging approach shot.
Perfect
This course is so wonderful. Out in nowhere but so good.
Perfect if you visit the Niagara falls.
Great condition and fun too play
awesome course, well maintained fairways, greens are good.
very picturesque and well maintained. Greens are tough read with ondulations. Super course.
Pristine conditions and fun course layout.
For a September round in Ontario the course was in pristine condition. The greens were quick, but not lighting, and very receptive to attacking the pins on approach shots. The course has a great layout, and plays well to golfers of all skill levels and distance. Our group was split on both skill and distance but the tee block offerings 6400 - 7400 yds, and receptive fairways from the tees mixed with smaller well guarded greens meant everyone had a great time playing the course. Would highly recommend giving this course a try.
Loved it
Absolutely amazing golf course.Conditions were perfect and staff couldn't do enough for me.
Tough course, quite well maintained, not a great clubhouse
Thought this course was quite good. It's pretty open but lots of fescue means you will pay for errant shots. The holes are very well designed with the need to shape a lot of balls. The bunkers are plentiful and well placed. The greens are also really well laid out, often with double breaks.
The course was in pretty good shape given the recent weather. Only a few brown patches on greens and soggy fairway patches.
The clubhouse is very basic. Limited food options. But the staff is very friendly and helpful.
It's definitely overpriced at $100 though as you can get much better deals in the Niagara region.
A must play
This golf course might be the best in the Niagara Region. Exceptionally maintained with really nice quick greens.
overpriced when compared
It is an excellent course, don't get me wrong. Compared with other courses in the area and their prices I.e Thundering Waters, the course is not worth the extra money. Small things- can't get food earlier (we went through to the tenth at 10:50), no GPS.
great
the course was in excellent shape even after a night of heavy rain.
great value.
Beautifully laid out and picturesque well maintained.
As soon as you arrive the starters make you feel very welcome and are extremely helpful.
