Willodell Golf Club of Niagara is neighbored by Lyon Creek to one side and Tee Creek to the other. The championship layout sprawls across rolling hills covered with mature trees, which border the undulating fairways. Several ponds and two creeks come into play on 10 holes. There are numerous strategically placed bunkers to contend with in addition to the water hazards. The layout features a mix of driving holes, strategic holes, and some tough par 3s. Being so diverse, the golf course appeals to a range of different skill levels and tastes. The fifth hole is Willodell Golf Club's most difficult par 3 with trees right and left and a frontal bunker that forces a full carry to the green, which is also bunkered on both sides with grassy lateral hazards that sit beyond the sand.

Good solid course

Shame the greens were aired and sand filled but a good course. Enjoyed walking the course and it was in good condition even with the amount of rain it had in the week poor to us playing. Will continue to play here and recommend people to try it if not already.

Parking lot

I used to like this course but this time it was awful. Might as well have been playing in a parking lot. Everything was dry. The greens were like rock. When you hit a green on a par 3 you should not end up in a bunker on a different green. I do not recommend this course.

Really enjoy playing here

Play this course at least once a week. In great shape especially when you consider the hot dry summer we had. Greens and fairways are almost perfect. Tee boxes can use a little work. Staff are always friendly and welcoming. Really look forward to our rounds here.

Won’t go back

Very disappointed. Very slow play. A lot of “yahoo’s” on the course. Who don’t understand course etiquette. Took us almost 3 hours to play the front nine and there were 4 groups on the 10th tee. We went back and replayed the front nine and played it in 2 hours. I will not return to this course.

Hello, thank you for reviewing the course. We apologize for the delay of play during your round. Please know that this is by no means the standard we strive to achieve. With an uncharacteristically full day, we work hard to accommodate everyone who visits our course and allow our guest the chance to complete their rounds. With that in mind, we are working to best control pace and allow everyone to finish in a reasonable amount of time. We will continue to look for ways to improve. Thank you for playing Willodell Golf Club of Niagara. We hope to see you again soon.

Poor tee decks

The greens were by far the best part of the course. The tee decks were in terrible condition, looked more like rough with weeds and poorly maintained grass.
