Hockley Valley Resort Course

The Course itself was in Great shape .... pins were put in very accessible locations .... only constructive criticism I have was that the Greens were a little slow .... given the fact the course hasn't been open long they get a Mulligan for that .... overall course conditions were excellent ..... Staff friendly and attentive ... told about Procedures in place ..... Carts were throughly cleaned and Sanitized ..... felt safe and comfortable .... my friend and I through online booking were paired with another twosome .... Great guys .... great banter between the 4 of us .... Social distancing measures between us in place ...... outstanding day .... I will be back ..... Bravo to Hockley and to GolfNow ....

Average course that needs more care

Hidden deep in west side of GTA, the golf course claims it is a "must play" in GTA. Double as a resort and skiing place, first impression when we got into the compound was not very positive. while some staff were friendly but others were on the edge of rude. Due to the COVID-19, there were a few extra rules to follow, but then the staff broke them anyways, but grapping IDs from us, talking to us in close distance. The car path badly need a make-over. The condition on the green was OK, but the fairways were full of divots, not well maintained.

You can surely find better deal for your money somewhere else.

First round since the lockdown

Played on “opening” day.

Course condition was outstanding for opening day.

Greens are 5/10 for speed.

Single person per cart use. Pace was slow as a result but not because of others in front but by time required to all drive a cart.

I’ll be back soon.

Hockley Valley Golf Course Review

Played on what is probably the last week of the golf season for 2019. Lots of leaves (as to be expected) which made finding balls (even in the fairway) challenging.

Lots of rain during the previous few days created some "mushy" areas but greens were in good condition for the time of year. Although the ball definitely does not travel as far in the cooler fall air, the scenery makes it always nice to play this particular course at this time of year.

Always a challenge requiring use of virtually every club in your bag.

Beautiful day on the course

Hockley Valley did not disappoint. Conditions were were great and the greens ran true. This is a fabulous course that is more than fair if you can keep it on the short stuff.

Good value with exceptional views

Course is good value. Layout needs tweaking. 4th, 9th, 11th are a scramble with blind holes. 10th, 17th elevated tee are super fun.

Great course; poor management

Yes, the course is excellent in all regards. However, our power cart died in the middle of the 13th fairway. Good thing I had my cell phone with me. We called the pro-shop. They got another cart to us in 15-20 minutes. We thought that the proshop manager would offer some kind of compensation to us afterwards to account for our time lost due to their poorly charged cart. Not only would they do nothing for us , their attitude to us was totally unapologetic. Left a bad taste in our mouths. One wonders how often carts die on their course..

Challenging and enjoyable golf course

Hockley Valley presents a challenge to golfers at every level, but it's an enjoyable trek around the Niagara Escarpment. The course is beautifully laid out among the hills and valleys. Being straight off the tee is a must because fescue, creeks and trees await your hook or slice. I prefer to walk when I play, but the frequent steep climbs and the distance from greens to tees on several holes make it much easier to ride a cart. I've played this course in the fall and it's breathtaking with the changing colours. About an hour's drive northwest of Toronto.
