About
Located in a spectacular natural setting against the backdrop of the Niagara River whirlpool and gorge, this magnificent and challenging championship course was designed by the legendary golf architect Stanley Thompson. Owned and operated by The Niagara Parks Commission since 1951, Whirlpool is considered as one of the Top 100 Courses in Canada.
Directions: From Toronto: Approach Niagara Falls on the QEW. Just after crossing the St. Catharines Skyway, take the 405 exit towards the Queenston-Lewiston Bridge to the USA. Just before the bridge, take the last exit to the Niagara Parkway. Turn right off the ramp onto the Niagara Parkway. Whirlpool Golf Course is 4km down the road on the right hand side

Challenging No. 3 hole at Whirlppol Photo submitted by Stevensiu on 04/03/2013
Great course and great value.
Had a great day weather wise, course was in very good shape and I would play again. Good Value for a relaxing day.
Good course - but otherwise......
The course itself has great layout and conditions. Pace of play was horrible - they are sending people off too quickly, you have too many people walking with no mind to time - and no Marshall anywhere to be seen (who should be out making sure that folks are keeping pace on a busy Sunday). When you start play at 1:45 and can't finish 18 that's a problem with the tee sheet.
What a course!
It's a great course to play, it is well lead out.
It is very challenging for all levels of players.
Nice quick round
Pace of play was terrific but the course is showing the amount of play this season, especially on the tee blocks
