About
Running alongside the Niagara River, Legends on the Niagara offers two championship courses, a nine-hole course, and a unique 18-hole putting course, all of which boast impressive scenery and breathtaking views. The nine-hole Chippawa Course is named after the legendary Battle of Chippawa which took place during the War of 1812 on what is now the facility's location. The enjoyable layout can be easily walked, making it ideal for beginners or players interested in a quick, challenging round. The Chippawa has garnered a reputation as being the best short course in the country. For even more practice, Legends on the Niagara offer extensive training facilities including a 45-acre driving range, putting greens, and a short game area with bunker.

Love this Executive 9 hole course
As seniors, we had concerns about the heat wave but we golfed and walked the course. What saved us was the lovely breeze across this beautiful 9 hole course. A little disappointed today as the usual articulate landscape around this course seemed rough...the grass was a little too high and difficult to find our balls. It seems most of the courses I have recently played in the Niagara Region is the same. Is this due to the virus pandemic?
I love playing this course
Another great day at Chippawa
Note: The off course amenities were not open due to COVID-19. The weather began with a slight rain, otherwise it was perfect. As a couple of recreational golfers we really like this course and play it very often throughout the season. The staff are always friendly and accommodating. They outlined the physical distancing rules well and the course was well set up to comply with the COVID rules. We will be back next week.
Break off the CoVid rust
Had a good round. Slow foursome ahead, but we've all been there. Wet course so had to walk it, the pull carts are available first come first serve. All in all a very enjoyable course, especially for the price. I didn't have a chance to experience the off course amenities, so put a 3 as a "no comment".
Great 9 Holer
Legends is Niagara’s premier golf destination and this was my first time playing the Chippawa course. It was well laid out with a nice combination of short and long par 3’s and some very testing par 4’s. I left my driver at home which was a mistake as it is needed on the par 4’s. Great layout and in good condition and recommend it for those looking for a quick and enjoyable round. Shame we could not have a pint afterwards with the pandemic in full swing but loved the game.
Relaxing course
Great nine hole course. Lots of room and a relaxing afternoon.

Unfortunately my friend from Calgary and I could not play. We had a lot of rain over night so the course was a no cart day. My friend and I are not capable of walking the course physically as we are older people. I would have liked to play but we could not.
Great first visit experience!
First time playing Chippawa. Won't be the last! Will definitely play again. Was the perfect "practice" that my game needed.
First time playing this course and must say the course was in great condition. We called and the staff gave us a deal with a cart for 30$
The best value in Niagara.
A simple, straight forward nine hole course that is by far the best value in Niagara. The course is in perfect condition. The holes are varied and somewhat challenging. The rough is a bit overboard. This is now our nine hole course of preference.
First Time
First Time and took my son who is just starting to play. Staff was excellent and helpful. Great place to get a quick round in. Course conditions were great and clean. Great place to work your short game and even better for newer golfers but don't be fooled there are a few challenging par 4's. We'll be back.
Great value
Brought my 5-year-old son here, and what a great experience. For starters, kids play free. The course conditions were excellent. Immaculate tee boxes and greens. This is the ideal place for families with kids who are learning the game, or just a great place for more experienced players to get some practice in. We live in the U.S., so it’s a bit of a drive, or else we would play here every week. Highly, highly recommended.
No Directional Signages After Each Hole
I could have rated the course "excellent" except that there are no signage to direct you to the next tee after finishing a hole. The 2nd tee was so far off to the right that I confused the 4th tee as 2nd since the former was very near.
Very good .
We played the blue tees even though I am a high handicap golfer. It was an interesting challenge. 9 holes took me 48 strokes about average for me on a par 72. The course is in very good shape although some greens were a bit bumpy. All in all good value.
Great course
Staff at check in was very grumpy the last three times we have been there, not friendly or happy at all , must hate his job , lol
Great 9 hole executive course
We play this course often. Greens and condition are always good. Layout of course is even challenging for an intermediate golfer ! Always fun to play
