Royal Niagara Golf Club - Escarpment Course
About
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

Royal Niagara
Course is challenging and has an interesting layout. Lots of elevated greens, blind shots and carries over hazards. The course needs to improve maintenance or adjust their cost. Many burnt out areas on the greens, uneven tee decks, and unexpected bounces from firm fairways.
Beware
This course was once a beautiful gem. The fairways are the only thing left that is kept up on the course. Greens were full of marks and divots. Tee boxes were dirt with little to no grass and very uneven. Make sure to drop your clubs off with your car here. Otherwise you will be walking 1/4 mile back to the parking lot, only to walk them back again. No carts can leave past the pro shop. I think for $90+ tee boxes and especially greens should be in fantastic shape. Definitely not the case here. Could have played eagle valley and saved money.
What a gem
This is now my favourite course. Other courses should use this course as a standard of how a course should be established and ran.

Course conditions
Aerated the greens in the july. Smack dab in the middle of the summer.
Tee boxes were in horrible condition.
Def the worst course condition I’ve played at that price point. Do yourself a favor and skip this course. Many more in the Niagara region
Fun Course
Interesting course. Disappointed greens had been recently punched (who does that in July). Enjoyed the round and would play again.
