About
Thundering Waters Golf Club, so named for its proximity to the Canadian Horseshoe Falls, has a unique layout that combines a parkland course with the tricky elements of a heathland golf course. There is an interesting combination of drivable par 4s and scenic par 3s that will provide a formidable test for even the most skilled players. The golf course first winds through heavily wooded patches and then finds its way to rugged hills dotted with thick fescue where true links-style holes with deep bunkers and large, undulating greens await you. The layout also features several doglegs and more than 100 bunkers strategically placed throughout. Water hazards come into play on 10 holes. Thundering Waters Golf Club was Canada's first John Daly signature golf course.

Judge the course not the condos
Coarse has changed over the years and so has its surroundings. Look past the development and remind yourself why you came to Thundering Waters. Great value premium golf. Hole#1 is obviously a butcher job to make way for development but aside from that ... its a great golf experience for the price.
Great course
Only negative was very slow greens. Also the par 3’s from the blacks were all about 200 yards. A little annoying when the course is only 6100 yards from the that tee block.
very good test
play every couple weeks in very good condition great greens
Terrible customer service
Ridiculous service behaviour. Was sworn at by the starter, and very aggressive when directions were being followed. Ruined the mood for the day.
Great track!
Course was great considering we had a lot of rain the night before. Got on quickly and barely saw another person the entire round.
Great day out!
Lacking in some key areas
Firstly our cart ran out of battery around the 11th hole. It would go if it was flat at about 0.25 mph but if there was a hill...no chance. Called the clubhouse twice, nobody answered so we resorted to help from the guy we were playing with to give us a 'boost' up the hills. Very short course with a lot of quirks and tricks, tees were beat up but the greens were in OK shape for a mid afternoon round on a daily fee course.
Thundering Waters
A very enjoyable round. The course was in excellent condition except for the sand traps.
Slack dump
Close the doors and build more homes. Course is too cramped, no Marshall's keeping pace of play reasonable. It's a goofy layout, Bunkers are unplayable. Horrible experience
