Dragonfly Golf Club is located in the upper Ottawa Valley in the town of Renfrew, which sits along the Bonnechere River. The course sprawls across rolling hills speckled with exposed rock faces, mature trees, and sparkling blue ponds, all of which come into play throughout. The scenic surroundings can be distracting because of the panoramic views overlooking the Ottawa Valley, but the design will demand your attention. The front nine has a traditional links layout while the back nine plays more like target golf. Despite offering two unique nines, they blend together seamlessly to form a golf course that will test all of your shot making skills. In addition to the golf course, Dragonfly has a driving range with 20 hitting stations and the option of tee matts or natural grass. Chipping and putting greens with a practice bunker are also available adjacent to the range.

Has personality, and good risk/reward

Overall, the course is varied and a lot of fun. It is not super difficult, with not too much major trouble (water and OB lining 2 and 8, have to carry water on 15) unless you are really wild or greedy. Par 3s aren't very interesting except for 18, though 7 is good if you play from the back (5 would be great if longer). Grass is always well conditioned, and the greens have never been anything but above average when I've played. If rained a lot recently, does tend to have a few holes where it gets soggy. Good snack bar, and pro-shop has anything you need. Bring your own water if you don't want to buy drinks though, as tap water isn't potable. To be picky, the practice area could be bigger, and getting 15-20 balls to hit on the range with a green fee would be a nice perk.

Favourite holes: 2,4*,7,10,15*,16,18*
Not so much: 12 b/c the fairway is difficult to hit and stick, 14 b/c I'm stupid and always take too much club of the tee.
P.S. lots of wildlife too. Besides the in-season dragonflies (especially on the back), I've seen deer, osprey, hawks, a beaver, and the usual critters.
