Play where the pros played

Finally had a chance to play this course after watching the open play here over the years. Enjoyed every stroke, yes even the extra ones. Course was in great shape, greens were true and fast and the course layout was challenging. Enjoyed it more than TPC Toronto. Staff in the club house were attentive and courteous. Well recommended.

Outdated Golf Course

The golf course is highly over-rated at high cost. They post a high regular rate of $250 but will heavily discount at $150. But the issue is the bad operating practice we have experienced. They rushed us to start before our booking tee time to fit in their friends group. When we brought up our complaint to the pro-shop and the Director, there is no response. The course design is pretty outdated and you have to walk after parking our cart near the holes. We will not go back to play.

Dear all,

I played glen abbey now 3x, i think for the price you pay the condition is not that good. Especially when i look on the weekend it would cost 200-250cad which i think there are way better courses around for that amount.

The course just keeps not up anymore like 3-4 years ago. Back then the condition was perfect and worth to play/pay.

Down Hill

The course care and condition is very poor and the fact no one cares shows. There was no food service after golf as they decided to close at 8pm.

No wonder the Canadian open dropped this venue.

No marshals

Pace of play was extremely slow with no marshals to be seen to keep groups at pace. Group in front of us never ranked a single trap all round and they spent alot of time in them. Probably will not play again.
