This course has a great layout and is very picturesque.

This course has a few holes that could be changed to make it fairer. Tee boxes for women should be moved up on almost every hole.

Great Walk on a Beautiful Day

A very enjoyable day on a course that begs to be walked. The greens were quite decent for this time of year and although there is some damage to the fairways they were also fine for the early part of the season.

Maybe the nicest folks in the business work at Glen Mar starting when you walk in to the Pro-Shop door right through the starter to the staff at the nineteenth hole.

While this course will never be confused with Eagle Creek, it is a naturally appealing place without a single house or condo-block anywhere to be found, plenty of wildlife and some well defined tree-lined holes that give the course some character and charm.

Great value for the money and the only hitch being they might be too nice to some of the patrons who can be slower than needed.

Glen-Mar - great experience

Glen- Mar is located just 15 mins from the heart of Kanata and this makes it quick and simple to get to. We were pleasantly surprised that the course was very dry and clearly has good drainage. The front 9 had some minor damage in the fairways however the back 9 was fantastic for the time of year and the greens were a 8/10. With a little rain and growth it will be back to its mid- season challenge and form! Thanks!

Autumn golf at Glen Mar

My wife and I had an enjoyable round of golf with friends from out of town despite of the cool weather condition. The course was still in good shape for this time of year.

Laidback course

There are many doglegs that test your accuracy. It is not a must to drive long, but good positioning is rewarded.

Bumber-to-bumber golf -- don't waste your time there!

The starter can't keep people on schedule, we were 10-15 min late starting off, then they send groups back-to-back with no space on a demanding hole # 1 par 4 (handicap 1) that plays more like a par 5 for seniors, and you can imagine the rest...a front nine that takes over 2.5 hours. We abondoned after the front 9 since it took 40 min from dowtown Ottawa to reach the course. The greens were so-so and the fairways and tee-boxes are not well maintained. Even the GolfNow discount could not not make up for these shortcomings. We have now faced the same scenario twice in a few weeks, once in the morning and this time in the afternoon. I know they're trying to make up for a difficult season but this way of conducting their business will jeopordize any repeat business potential.

Not for us

We were the "meat in a sandwich" in our round. The course had an early morning tournament and an afternoon tourney. The course paired us with another twosome and our tee time was pushed back about 10 minutes (originally 11:30). Play was extremely slow. We waited 5-10 minutes at every tee and we left after 5 hours after playing only 16 holes.

Course itself was only in OK shape (greens pretty patchy plus long and slow). All in all, not an enjoyable round of golf.

We would be very leery of going back to Glen Mar again.

Some challenging holes

Course in good shape. Many challenging holes with narrow fairways. Also some wide open fairways to let you swing away.

You start on time, which is important.

Location very convenient to city. Would recommend course.

Very Slow, Wake up Glenmar !

This is the second time playing over a 5 hour round at this course this year. No Marshals in sight, course and greens are in decent shape. The exact time for the round was 5 hours and 27 minutes for 18 holes.

Don't bother booking if you need a cart...

I was introduced to this golf course by a friend and I truly enjoyed the first experience (walked the first game). Their course condition and greens were in super condition. They cleaned out along the trees and balls can be found most of the time if you're in there. Their Friday chef's dinner is delicious! Black flies were out of this world it that's not the course's fault.

I enjoyed my first game so much that I convinced my spouse to take an afternoon off from work and drive out 60 km. Prior to going, he did a little research on the reviews and noted those who were upset that carts weren't available upon arrival. Carts are "included"when booking on their own page on Golf Now. Sure enough these review and comments hold absolutely true! We had no choice but to leave the course as my spouse cannot walk it. They did not offer to check on when a cart might be available, I.e. Someone driving to the 18 or 17th hole to see if any carts will soon return, etc. Shouldn't they be reserving carts for those booking with carts? If they don't have enough, either remove it from their booking times or purchase some more to fulfill their 'false' advertising.

We were really looking forward to a nice afternoon of golf and dinner after driving that distance to get there. Thanks for wasting our afternoon off from work and gas Glen Mar!

Good Condition, Slow Play

This course is fairly close to Ottawa and easy to get to. Course condition is good - nice grass on fairways and no bare patches, fast greens. Fairly interesting layout with tree-fringed fairways, and some holes crossing creeks. It is busy; both times we were there it was quite slow, the last time taking more than 5 hours. There was a foursome two groups ahead who took their own sweet time, hitting two balls, etc., with an empty hole in front of them.

A perfect day on the golf course

I teed off at 11:00 once the dew had dissipated. The conditions were excellent. The weather was sunny with a light breeze to keep us cool. The refreshment cart was very timely and came around just enough.

Good value

Have played this course twice this year. Both times it was in excellent shape. Fairly flat so easy to walk (although we had carts). Pace slowed at 6th hole but marshals were quick to address the situation. Not much advantage when playing off the front tees so plays somewhat long for women. Very good value for the price. Will go back.
