Royal Niagara Golf Club - Old Canal Course
Rating Snapshot
About
The Old Canal Course is one of three nine-hole courses at the Royal Niagara Golf & Country Club. Situated between the scenic Niagara Escarpment and the Bruce Trail, the Old Canal Course is named after the historic 120-year-old Welland Canal that borders it. The challenging layout was designed to championship standards, employing several tricky elements including carefully sculpted fairways, rolling greens, and king-size bunkers. True to its name, the golf course features plenty of water throughout. There are several dramatically placed tees perched on the edges of the canal, providing stunning scenery that is unmatched in the Niagara region. All three courses at Royal Niagara Golf & Country Club were built to the same high standards, but each one offers a unique set of challenges.

Great condition
The course is in great condition, there were a few wear marks from people driving carts in the EXACT same path (nothing the course can do to prevent the herd from following each other ) . The greens were a bit on the wet side but in great shape . I just wish people would repair their own ball marks , which again the course can’t control . Overall , this is my wife and I’s favourite place to play together .
Nice course
Nice course, 3 - 9 hole courses actually. In good shape, pace of play was great. Really enjoyed the course and will be back.
Nice few days
I have played here a few times before and was looking forward to getting another round in. Was able to play 18 holes, two days in a row, and really enjoyed it. I feel the course is one of the best in Niagara, with a good variety of interesting holes, including some elevation changes that you don't get on a lot of our flat Niagara courses. Some small issues with one or two of the greens, but the course was well manicured in general. I am already looking forward to going back.
Course was wet
Cart path only due to heavy rain day prior. That made for a slow round but understandable. Otherwise enjoyed the round, course is somewhat challenging, have played here a few times, always enjoyable.
