Legends on the Niagara Golf Course - Ussher's Creek

The folks at Niagara parks have done it again. In spite of our cold and wet Spring and early Summer, Ussher's creek was in peak form. The greens were quick and they held shots perfectly. The rough was up and the fairways were in great shape.

This is a tough course that rewards good shots and punishes badly executed ones. I love it and will continue to play at Ussher's regularly.

Course is I. Great condition. Greens are fast,fairways tight and plush. However it was extremely overbooked. 3hr 45mins for NINE!!!

No Marshall cruising around, it was very aggravating.

Had to wait 20 minutes on each tee because they let drunken groups of 5 and 6 people play the same hole

Only managed to play 8 holes before we went inside to ask for a rain check

Two groups in front of us left before we did

Golf course refused to give us anything because we booked it through golf now

We drove one and a half hours to play 8 holes

Spent a half hour trying to reason with them in the pro shop but fell on deaf ears

Unacceptable

We played early Friday and went back out in the afternoon. 8 guys for a golf weekend. Both courses provide a great challenge and variety. If you played in southern Ontario this summer you know it’s wet. These courses are not considering. Greens are quick(not lightening) and in great shape. Rough was tough in spots. Clubhouse is awesome. Great food and friendly staff. Will be back for a 7th time soon.

seniors should be allowed to re-schedulek when cart path only rules apply - too much walking for us to go to balls away from cart path making it too long a round

This course was extremely wet. Numerous areas of standing water. No drainage at all.

The course was not too busy and we finished our round in under 4 hours.

The tee blocks and greens were excellent. The fairways were very dry considering all of the rain that has fallen.

Consider the replay rate when going here. Unbelievable value.

Excellent course. Good shape considering the amount of rain this last month.

A few complaints (whining) follows but did enjoy the round and will go back soon.

I chose to walk again rather than cart path-only. Tough course to walk, mostly flat but distance between holes and pushing a hand cart through wet long grass and soggy areas was a chore. Also more difficult to hit of spongy turf and no roll - anything high will plug.. You can see where they tried to mow the grass and gave up. I played from the white but should probably used forward tees - no roll etc.

However a good day in the semi-sun, Couple holes are long with water just shy of the greens - makes it hard to get there in two. With wet conditions mostly risk rather than reward. I'll wait a couple weeks before next booking to allow for drying out so I can focus on shot making rather than keeping dry feet.

Normally we have enjoyed this course, but with all the rain it was just a big mess. To hit from the fairway and wear mud isn't any fun..

Course was too wet and made too many shots unplayable as the ball was either plugged or lost in standing water in the fairways! You sank walking to your ball and the grass was too wet for the general maintenance of cutting near impossible.

This course was closed yesterday due to extreme moisture and should have stayed closed today also.

The course is fantastic, but needs time to dry out.

Course was really wet but fun.... it still is early May .

although course was wet due to recent rains,it was still nice to play.e

We luckily were paired with another twosome or play would have been slow. Greens were excellent but the fairways were quite wet and spongy in places making it more difficult. Beautiful layout and the rough was very tough to get out of at times. Challenging bunkers and we didnt care for the gravelly sand but otherwise a good day.

The course had received a fair bit of rain so wn byas a bit waterlogged. Had to play lift clean and place with next to no roll ie plugged balls were the norm. The greens were just the opposite ie cut thin and dry so they were pretty fast. These too opposite made for a challenging round. Conditions were overcast to the point of threatening with plenty of unpredictable swirling winds. All in all...a challenging day and we got more windburn than sunburn.....and a little bit of burn from the course....lol

Course in good shape. Played on a raining day & the greens were still fast.

All three of the regulation Niagara Parks Golf Courses are excellent but Ussher's Creek is the crown jewel of them all. It is very challenging and it rewards good shots and punishes errant shots, sometimes severely.

The greens are in the best shape that they have ever been in and they were rolling at about a 12.5 on the Stimp today...fast and true are the words to describe them.

If you haven't played here yet, do so. It is wonderful.
