Thundering Waters Golf Club

Surprised by the short distance! However, if you are not in fairway, expect to pay for miscue. Undulating green add to difficulty. I think this course would make long hitters realize that brawn is not as important .as mental prowess.

Expected more...No flow to the course. Most holes do not line up with the next hole. Good shape, some good holes, tough par 3's.

course is shorter than I expected. most courses I play the white tees, this course I played the blues and if I play again I would consider the blacks

our gps was hard to read due to the brightness control not working. no marshalls to move golfers at a reasonable pace having to wait on tees for most of the round which was 5+ hrs. could only get drinks at the turn since lions den was closed. the most amusing part of the day came when we finished and the staff were rushing to the 10th tee because someone was running onto the green taking golf balls.

We played on a Friday and were never pressured and never really had to wait,the course was very wet but I dont recall any rain so they must water heavily slowed the ball down in some areas. All in all a fun round and now I can say I've played it!

This course offers a good balance of risk/reward shots and provides a nice layout. The greens were being aerated which impacted the conditions of the greens, but overall the course was in good condition. Played early so was able to complete the round in less than 2.5hrs.
Would play again after the aeration is completed to get a true feel for the greens which require good approach shot placement .

This is an excellent shotmakers course. It is not long, but is tight with a good number of strategic par 4's. Each hole is well framed by woodlands and marsh and is very appealing to the eye. I played the day after the course had been hammered by torrential rainfall. It was, of course, soft and most of the the bunkers had water in them, but fairways, tees and greens were all otherwise in fine shape. I must confess that I had second thoughts about the course before playing it when I read some earlier negative reviews, but I put myself in the camp of those who liked it. I really enjoyed my round and would definitely play it again given the opportunity.

tee blocks were very rough(no grass) and greens very slow

This has to be my favorite course in Niagara Falls. A great day starts as soon as you pull up to the front doors. I was greated with a smile, my clubs were carried strait to a cart and the gentleman even filled up my travel mug with a fresh cup of coffee. The staff also introduced me to my playing partners. I think that's a small thing that really puts people at ease when playing with strangers. It throws any awkwardness right out the window.
From tee to green this course is a real treat on the eyes. Large tee blocks, great fairways, and greens are as good as you are gonna get on a public course. This course is just really fun to play. It is built with a lot of risk reward. You can take the easy route or you can beef up your driver and put it in a spot that you would think only PGA pros could hit. I can only describe it as playing a round of Golden Tee golf. If you got the " balls" to try it you can be on the green on a par 4 with your drive. Of course there is big risk and huge reward. And the par 3's are really well designed. I hate par threes to begin with but here they are a pleasure to play because they are so nice and creative.
The carts Cary an iPad sized GPS that gives the locations and distances of basically everything on the course. This is a big help and really assists in scoring well.
Play thundering waters. It's the best

Secured an early tee time on Aug. 19. 2013.
Female rep. at front desk very courteous and knowledgeable.
Bag drop rep. in front, the same.
Thought conditions were very good.
Greens were fast and rolled true.
The lone bunker I was in was raked and sand was of sufficient quality to blast out of.
Pace of play was awesome (just 4 hours).
Second time playing this year.
Definitely enjoy the back 9 more ... that 1 very short par 3 on front, not a fan of.
All in all, good golfing experience.

Played here the other day in a twosome and were paired up with another group. We all thought this was an excellent course. The course was in great shape, bunkers everywhere which makes shot location important. The staff we spoke to were very nice. It was our first time playing but we will be back.

Had never played the course so I figured I'd give it a shot. Had a tee time of 7:34 but there was at least a 20 minute delay before we could tee off. Disappointed that we had to wait for a late group rather than keeping things moving. Course was good, bunkers are everywhere. Greens were in good shape.

Not particularly long for a John Daley course. We had a great time and the employee at the Field House was very friendly. A good layout with sand traps everywhere. I did notice that players did not repair divots in the fairway or ball marks on the green. Wear and tear was beginning to show around the greens and tee boxes. Overall though an enjoyable experience.

Staff could be a bit more enthusiastic. Only the halfway house girl greeted us with smiles. There is no driving range (thanks to housing development), just a hitting area with nets. The front nine is very challenging. Back nine is more manageable. Some of the greens needed attention.

This course is very challenging for all levels of golfers and superbly maintained. The management and staff are very friendly and value for the dollar is for sure worth the play. A must play.

The course was in very good shape for the amount of rain that came the night before. Challenging course that will test your accuracy.

First group off at 6:30 meant a great pace of play. Course was in excellent condition, except for a few bunkers that hadn't been maintained.
6 par 5's and 6 par 3's make for a great day for me as those are the better scoring holes for me = Low round of the year.
Greens ran quick and true.
Course is a bit short, but there is lots of trouble and the greens undulate enough for me to have more 3 putts than normal.

Didn't particularily like the course layout. Several of the holes were confusing becuase the flag on the adjacent green was parallel and visable from the fairway. There was no marshall on duty and the group in front of us had the course backed up for at least three holes with our group waiting on every tee and finishing almost 30 minutes off pace. The bunkers were not raked and divot marks on the fairways not repaired. The water in the ball washers was very durty. In all, we were disappointed with the course.

A very unique course. A great play and must play for any golfer!

out of 18 holes the ground staff was on 8 of them driving right behind us as we tried to hit our shots,walking across the greens on par 3's as we hit our shots,cutting the grass as we tried to putt.With all the courses in the area we'll never go back
