The Escarpment Course is one of three nine-hole courses at Royal Niagara Golf & Country Club. The course is so named for its layout, which begins at the base of the Niagara Escarpment and snakes upwards to the top of the wooded Escarpment; afterwards it goes back downhill to the clubhouse. The golf course has been built to championship standards with carefully sculpted fairways and cavernous bunkers. There are also undulating greens and water hazards coming into play throughout. The challenging round is complemented by the scenic views provided by Royal Niagara Golf & Country Club's idyllic location between the Escarpment, the Bruce Trail and the Welland Canal

Well Manicured

Played Iron Bridge and Escarpment. The course was in prime shape. Tricky pin locations, soft tee boxes and a well manicured course. Staff was friendly and very helpful.

Good Condition. Bunkers need work

The course was in good condition. It was better in the past, but it had been hot and dry. The bunkers are not good. Some were hard, packed sand but it appears that they were in the middle of remediating them. The staff is always great. The course is challenging and the view is beautiful. I played on a Sunday afternoon and there were newbie golfers out which really slowed the pace of play even with a Marshall on the course

Back Nine Slow pace

Good price for the course. Friendly staff!! Front 9 was regular timely pace. Back 9 was horrendously slow. Golf time was over 5 hours. There was no one behind us after 2:30 tee time? I don’t understand? We were not in a rush but the marshals should have attended ti the slow up

Great day!

Course is in great shape, the greens were a little on the slow side. Great course layout. Inconvenient that carts are not permitted in parking lot. Will play again for sure.
