Not bad

First of all, it's way too much money for what you're getting, the hype is over.The Canadian open is not played there anymore.The bunkers were not PGA standard & the rest of the of course was in good shape. I most likely would not play it again unless I got a deal on the green fees.

Horrible Experience

Horrible at this place. Everything. 0 marshals on the course and had to rain check after 10 hours through…3hrs 10mins.

Quite embarrassing.

And the staff are clueless.

Pour kid cleaning the carts had more brains and knowledge than the person in the pro shop.

Figure it out or you mine as well close it down.

But of a disappointment

I have played Glen Abbey before, although many years ago. My first impression was that the quality of the course has declined. Tee boxes were in very rough shape. Greens were ok but slow. The course layout is excellent and the fairways were in good shape but this course is not at the same level as it used to be and certainly has lost much of the lustre that it used to have as the home of the Canadian Open. Not worth the price that they charge.

Bad value

Not great value. No screens in the Carter for yardage. Jammed extra tee times in which killed pace of play. Great course but terrible value for what it should be

Finished 8 holes

Although we teed off at 6:30 I figured we would at least get through 13-14 holes. The pace of play was awful and I think there was a couple people didn’t even pay and jumped in front of us. Truthfully for eight holes of golf it was far too expensive. I understand there’s no marshals at that time but I kind of regret paying for this teatime fact I couldn’t even finish nine holes and close to three hours.

Played this course over 100 times

Pace of play

I have played this course at least 200 times in my life. On the 1st tee the starter told us to keep pace of play as they’re trying to speed up play for the members. As a former member I appreciate these instructions. By the 5th hole we had 3 groups waiting to tee off. By the 9th hole we had 4 groups waiting. The marshal who was just a kid repetitively told us hole after hole there was nothing he could do. It is a shame how this once iconic course is now treated as a 2 bit public course. Not to mention how bad the rough and greens are compared to when I was a member pre covid.

Great Monday Deal for a very good golf course

Took advantage of the great Monday deal - paid what I normally pay for a city course and Glen Abbey is definitely on a different level with fantastic conditions and a good course layout.

First of the year

Fairways very good. T Boxes mah. Greens did not look cut, very slow with flowering Poianna. Maintenance staff need to learn when to stop working around greens and T’s.
