Otter Creek Golf Club is situated in the idyllic farm community of Otterville, Ontario, which is only a 30-minute drive from Woodstock. The rural landscape was formerly farm and tobacco fields, lending a unique, rustic character to the golf course. The layout sprawls across 300 acres, winding through the scenic, wooded valleys of Otter, Cedar, and Spittler Creeks. Dick Kirkpatrick, one of Canada's top golf course architects, designed Otter Creek Golf Club. Kirkpatrick designed the course with players of all skill levels in mind, incorporating minimal forced carries and six sets of tees to make it more accessible for those who are new to the game

Perfect Day for Golf

this is a difficult course to play but with the several tee choices, it makes more bearable. I would golf here again but would like it if it was a little cheaper to play.

Still one of my all time favourites

Great track. Tough, but there are forward tees I do blue/white. Usually in impeccable condition, but some rough spots ... and the bunkers haven't been fluffed up in what must be days!! There are footprints from last year I'm sure ... and weeds!! Some rough spots on some fairways and unrepaired divots .. and doesn't anyone fix their frickin' ball marks anymore?!? You need to do maintenance virus or no virus. Some courses have rakes and sand / seed on every cart. Everyone knows stomping down on a beaver pelt doesn't work. Condition is that of a $35 course. Too bad because it's beautiful and it's an interesting layout.

Fun track, the worst bunkers!

Last I checked, bunkers are supposed to be filled with sand. I played last week and destroyed two clubs hitting out of the sand. Very upsetting! Spend some money on good sand!

Amazing Course. Clown Marshals.

The course is incredible. Well worth the drive from London. A challenging experience and enjoyable even in 40 degree heat.

The annoyance is with their course marshals. It's embarrassing how often they have marshals coming down the course in the opposite direction to check if you have any of your own booze; on nearly every hole this happened. Highly annoying and really ruins the entire experience.

My suggestion to staff? People driving an hour to play golf and pay $75 a round aren't the ones bringing outside booze onto the course. Let people play their round in peace. You're not the FBI. Chill out and buzz off.

5 star review is barely a 3 star due to this.
