Legends on the Niagara Golf Course - Battlefield

We played 1st weekend of November. We have played many rounds on Usher's Creek, but this was 1st round on Battlefield. I actually enjoyed Battlefied more, and our group prefers this layout to Usher's. Weather was pefect for early November, and the condions were good...a little soggy, but not swampy. I find the average length is a little long from the white tees, as it was difficult to drive anywhere near the 150 marker on a lot of holes, as our group drives on average 220-245 yards. Course allows you to hit just about every club, which I like. Overall, it was a good day.

Course was in great shape, and for $45 it was a deal. Paired with two walkers, pace of play was still excellent. Wonder about the course rating.... Rated too "easy" from the reds in my view, highly unlikely for us to get to the greens in regulation on most par 4's, and we are two women with indexes 10 or less!

Considering the time of year and the summer 0f 2016

course was in outstanding condition

Staff were on top of their game and very aware the

playing publicv are real important

A throughly enjoyable day even the well groomed

sand traps

This course is in great condition and a pleasure to play. The scenery and quiet is refreshing.

The Whirlpool has the helicopter and this one has honey bees!

Slow 4 some in front was annoying with 2 open hole in front of them but we still did it in 4 hours.

A mrashall would be a nice touch.

Overall; a great venue.

Played on a damp and very breezy Friday afternoon.

A bit confusing in that club drop off is at starters station/snack bar but have to go up to main building to check in at pro Shop. used to have shuttle from parking lot to clubhouse/starter. Played Battlefield course. Tee off was right on time. Fairways, traps (many many!) and overall conditions were excellent after a hot dry summer. The greens were only moderately fast which threw me off as I remembered them from 3 years ago as a lot faster. The greens are huge with many false fronts so you have to land on the green and not the fringe. Because of the slower speed I personally over read the breaks and took a while to adjust. Played from the whites which is challenging for 71 year olds but doable - just relax and play for position! "Bogey is the new par!"

It is a wonderful course and facility and the price is right for locals.

This is a big scenic course with big greens, many protected by sand traps and/ or water. The greens are generally very well maintained. 2-putting (or better) all 18 holes is a fun challenge (if you like putting).

Love playing Legends and yesterday Battlefield was in great shape. Course Marshall`s kept the play moving very well; never waited more than 2 minutes at any hole! Mike, Curtis and Corbin are always great to work with along with all the other staff at the course...highly recommend this course!

From the classy Pro Shop the smartly laid out facilities, this course is not only a joy to play but just a great place to come to. Manicured well and kept in great condition, I highly recommend it to others looking for a comfortable round in a great part of the province.

Beautiful course in great condition with tees to suit everyone. Very friendly and professional staff.

Battlefields back 9 superb, if 2nd/3rd shot (par 5)into 11th doesn't get your pulse racing you are in the wrong game.

Big greens putting at a premium

Played here as a follow up round to Grand Niagara; not really fair to compare the two but suffice to say both are well bunkered. Next time I play here I will be sure to have a yardage book as it's tough to judge by eye.

Staff were friendly, starter was efficient at keeping things on schedule; the instant the group ahead left the tee he told us "they're gone, you're up"

Paired up with two younger guys from Burlington, they played a set of tees back but the flow worked well. Fortunately the group ahead was playing a scramble so after two or three holes we fell into a good pace where you could hit when ready.

Fairways were quite soft after the rain, but the bunkers were very firm. You almost didn't need a rake as you weren't leaving footprints. Front nine greens were very bumpy, but this course gets a lot of play and we were in the afternoon so I guess that's to be expected.

The course is fairly open, a few holes with water hazards, but mostly bunkering is the main challenge. Well, bunkering and wind.

All in all an enjoyable round; just make sure you have a yardage book otherwise you might find yourself in some bunkers that you thought for sure weren't in play.

Enjoyed the course. Long from the blue tee and quit a challenge. Requires you to use e ery club in your bag. Staff was extremely friendly. Would definitely play here again.

This was the second time I have played this course. Very impressed with the course conditions and pace of play. Would strongly recommend you check out these two great courses at Legends!!

Great shape , fast greens, pleasure to play for the $

Course was in good condition. Tournament play (ahead of our tee time) was poorly managed. Too few staff to assist. No ranger to assist place of play (almost 5 1/2 hours). Cart died after 13 holes. Over-all a disappointment.

This was the first time playing any Niagara golf course. I will definitely be back to explore the other courses in the area.

What really impressed me of this course was the condition ... pristine!!! The tee blocks were immaculate and you would be hard pressed to find many divots in the fairways.

If you are one of those golfers who sometimes plays blues or whites, I would play the whites unless you warmed up before the round and felt confident on the range.

Lastly, consider playing an extra club on some of the greens. You really don't notices some of the elevation until you look back at the fairway.

I had not played here for several years and had forgotten what a great layout and challenge this course offered. Will definitely return for another round very soon - I have score to settle with this course.

We played both battlefield and ushers Creek on the same day. 36 holes the pace of play was incredibl e. No wait time . The cost to play the additional 18 was to reasonable too pass up. The course conditions what can I say were the best I have ever played in the Niagara region. I would definitely go back again

.

The greens are great and challenging because they are very fast, large and with many undulations. the fairways are wide and not too long. There are many sand traps protecting the greens.

Great shape with friendly staff

The green fees for this course are too high for what you get. There have not been any marshals for years so if the pace gets slow, you are stuck. The cart paths are horrendous. They have been in need of repair for years but nothing ever seems to get done to them. It's a fun course to play but not for the price being charged.
