Willodell Golf Club of Niagara
About
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.

Great course
Unfortuneately this otherwise great course was under aeration conditions.
Great course
Course in good shape good round green fairly fast
Overall enjoyed the course
Good Niagara Pick
We played in the gale brought in by hurricane Joaquin so the course was pretty empty. But we had a great time and enjoyed the course. Challenging enough for low handicappers and can be short enough for the shorter hitters. Course was in excellent shape and they took care of the fall leaves too. Would recommend for those visiting the Niagara area.
wilodell sept 15
course in good shape ,greens excellent not too speedy staff good although wanted to buy spikes not much selection. Beer price resonable on course.Will play there again
Willodell Golf Course
The course is extremely dry and ball rolls for ever. The greens are the concrete pads (in desperation of some water), so the approach shots even with the wedges is a challenge. In defence to the course I must say that the greens are fast and sand bunkers are in decent shape, the rest of it is very mediocre.
Fun Time
Great Greens .. playable traps ... some tricky holes where you would like a member with you,
had a good time
I wish Niagara courses would have water on the courses .. HOT and Thirsty ...
Nice Course
I enjoyed the round and left the course feeling like I got value for my money. Nothing stood out as awesome and nothing said not very good. The course has a few challenging holes but nothing to test a great golfer. Course opens with two par 5's, both reachable in two, for the low handicapper. If you drive the ball straight you will enjoy a nice scoring day.
Fair, best case, middle of the road course
A lot more pleasant to walk than ride. Fairways jump the cart around a lot, bumpy.
Very nice course
Course was in great shape, greens were very true and fast. Pro shop employees were great, clubhouse super clean. Overall nice day on a good course
Will be there again!
Excellent course for the money. Greens fast and course is well maintained.
Enjoyed the round and will be back for sure.
Well kept course
This was my second time playing this course. The greens were fast and the fairways were narrow and great to hit off. The only thing missing were cart paths. You could see people were driving up to the greens which I didn't like. This course has nice long par 5's and a few difficult par 3's. Overall I found this course very challenging. I would definitely play here again
my willowdell game
Friendly staff
Good pace of game
Good golfing for the price
Golf Maybe
The course was as usual in great condition. However my booking through Golf Now left a lot to be desired. When I got there the course did not have my pre-paid booking and in fact had been double booked Sunday and Monday. They were very open and amenable to fixing the booking issue.
I would give the course a 10 for all working through all of the issues and getting me out on time.
Not so much for the Golf Now booking system. First issue I have had but leaves me wary that I won't have more :-(
Bumpy Ride
This course has very undulating fairways and is not the nicest ride. Walking would be much easier on the body! Other than that, the course waist good shape. The greens were quick and have some very subtle breaks that are hard to see. Overall, lots of fun and a good spot for anyone who loves to play.
Course lay out.
Golf is made for walking. Riding a cart on this course is too bumpy. Greens are fast , great shape. Walking is the way to go.
A Very good Course
A very nice golf course well maintained. Staff were very friendly. Greens we slick but once you got used to them they were great.
Marshals at this course are aweful
We waited 15-20 mins per a hole and the Marshall came and told us to pick up our pace of play... Extremely rude about it as well, literally would not go back due to the way they treated us
Slowest course 'I've ever played
There was a 2 group wait and it took almost 5 hours to play where as I would think it should take no more than 3.5 hours to play. No one was on 10. Maybe they could of started a group there? Everywhere you looked there were people including staff driving around on almost every hole. There was no peace and quiet and someone was always stopping and watching my shots. I would not play this course again. I got a decent deal on golfnow but would of been really upset had I of had to pay full price.
Course was in real good condition
The fairways were soft and well kept. Greens were normal fast and in good condition. We had a lot of rain 2 days before so there was some soaked areas off to the sides of fairways in the first rough but nothing overly unexpected. Not overly challenging which also means only a couple lost balls!
Good course in good shape.
