Must Play
Now available on golfnow and public play! A must play for all serious golfers who enjoy the challenge of fast greens. Summer conditions can make it the AGUSTA OF THE NORTH
Not fun
It was just an awful experience. Boy for a Club Links course, this has to rate with the worse course in the GTA ever! Save yourself some money and go somewhere else!
Challenging greens
the greens are extremely tough to read which makes an excellent challenge.
Course in excellent condition.
Good challenge, nice course.
Tough from the blues. Greens are fast and undulating.
Very pretty course and worth the money. Strongly recommend.
DCU
good course with moderate
weather man call for rain, almost empty course
except some very rude golfer behind us
Thank you for taking time to respond and we do hope the group behind does not negatively affect your next visit to Cherry Downs.
Great round at Cherry Downs
Very tight and demanding course. Many mature trees that make the course challenging and beautiful!
We appreciate your response. Thank you!
If you want a challenge this is it!
Playing from the whites gives you all the challenge you need on this course. Position is everything. From your approach angle to any hope to sink a putt. The slants and speed on the greens is the last line of defence for this golf club and will have you pulling out your hair. But in a fun way.
Thank you for your positive response and we agree; be certain to select the proper set of tee blocks to enjoy your round.
Cherry Downer
Played this Clublink course on a golfnow deal. Things started off a bit rocky when the starter bumped our tee time to squeeze in a member twosome and then proceeded to talk down to us about club rules etc. In a nutshell what we discover is the bunkers have no sand, circus greens, ridiculously par 3's and silly lay up holes. We were a threesome and all very good golfers so having a course that is basically a fairground ride was no fun at all - add that to a snooty club staff and its was a Cherry Downer. My question to Clublink is if you don't want Joe public any where near your course then why offer the tee times?
Thank you for your response and I do hope that you return several times to overcome the problems of your first visit. Cherry Downs has long been a private facility and we do cater to our remaining Members. This golf course has a history of challenging all skill levels including many Professional golf tournaments. It does have rolling topography and quick greens, which can be a challenge. We do hope to see you again.
Toughest track in Toronto
The golf course tee to green is very scenic and challenging. I'd say in difficulty it's 8/10. As far as the greens go, they are another story. They are difficulty 12/10... Super fast, big slopes, and subtle breaks. 5 putts are very possible.
Thank you for taking the time to respond and we agree, the golf course does offer a tremendous challenge.
Pretty good course to experience
Staff were polite and friendly. Marshal did really nice job getting the people moving. He also gave us (all first timers) good tips along the way. Green is fast and a lot of slopes, some were quite tricky to read. Well maintained course and it was a nice experience.
Thank you for the great feedback!
Thank you for your positive response. Our staff enjoy hearing about their efforts to create a memorable golf experience. We look forward to hosting you again.
Great course
Challenging course that will require every in in the bag. Course management is a must. Greens were dry and quick but overall is a great course.
Thank you.
Well manicured course
Kind of surprised how many ball marks on each green were left NOT repaired for a predominantly private club.
It seems there is a certain predominate minority race that plays that feels entitled is maybe uneducated on the etiquette of the game.
Played from the tips, very windy, and challenging. Lots of fun, smooth , well maintained fast greens, with many slopes. Be aware of where you leave your approach shots as above the hole here, you can easily roll well past hole. Enjoy
Thank you for your positive response to course conditioning and we do try to offer a unique putting surface at Cherry Downs. Unfortunately, we count on our customer to repair their own ball mark (plus one other), but sometimes pace of play becomes a priority to the group when being pushed.
Decent, Would play again.
Nice Course, a few holes on the front 9 can cause a pile up.
Thank you for your time in commenting.
Thank you and we look forward to seeing you back.
Cherry Downs
Very nice scenic course that has lots of twists and turns. Greens are a bit too quick and make putting an difficulty. Carts need to be upgraded and the proshop and club house need some work too. Over all a very nice course would play again just need to us a local driving range where you can warm up with your driver.
You need more putt practice.
Cherry down is one of the typical clublink golf courses.
well maintained golf course, friendly staff, nice layout.
But this was also one of the most challenging course, too. Tight fairways make you focus on keep fairway and small, undulated greens make you easy 3 putt.
Most of greens are higher in the back, so always try to hit little shorter and do uphill putting.
This course is very walkable for me.
It was nice course and pleasant experience.
Thank you for taking time to respond and complimenting the staff. I'm certain everyone will benefit from your tips also.
Amazing greens
Course was very wet but in excellent condition nevertheless. DId not miss any putts under 8 feet - they were rolling beautifully.
Thanks!
Very challenging
Cherry Downs is an excellent golf course. Great variety of holes with challenging greens.
Thank you for the positive response.
First time playing at this course. Good experience !
This course is not easy to walk, and I think they should put up signs for the direction of next holes.
Thank you very much for your high rating and please note that I have forwarded your comment toward increased signage. As is well stated in the reviews, Cherry Downs has been a private club for many years and your suggestion helps with appeasing first time players to improve their experience finding the next tee.
I was warned about the green speed
Great track, staff is friendly and holes are unique enough where you don't feel like it's Groundhog Day.
I was warned about how fast and slippery the greens are, I was slightly disappointed with the condition of the greens but not enough to complain or ruin the Cherry Down experience.
Thanks you!
Tournament on very slow
Well I was looking forward to playing here. They had a junior golf tournament on. They should alert players on the golf now website that there is one. I would not have paid the money to go play it. I played 9 holes and walked back to my car.
Greens were rock hard, very dry and not very smooth.
Will not be returning.
We apologize that you caught us on an event day, but we do hope you will reconsider. The back nine is also an excellent challenge and provides an enjoyable experience.
Thank you for taking the time to respond and we're pleased that you enjoy the challenge and playability of Cherry Downs.
