Conditions are atrocious!

The staff, manager and golf north should be ashamed of the conditions of the course. The fairways are comparable to cement. The cart paths are full of pot holes. The ball cleaning stations were filthy and smelling of stale water. This could be a beautiful course with the layout but is not maintained. Other courses in the area remain lush and green while this one disappoints. I realize it's been a hot summer, but other courses seem to be able to manage. Why can't you?

Horrible Shape

This course is in horrible shape. The fairways are burnt to a crisp and rock hard. You hit a nice drive in the fairway and then you can't hit a wedge properly as it just bounces off the rock hard ground. It looks like it could actually be a pretty nice course but it needs water bad and is over priced for this shape.

I got a sandwich and a chocolate bar at the turn which was 14.50. The sandwich was old white Dempsters bread with a kraft single and a little bit of turkey. What a rip off!

Go somewhere else you can find much nicer courses for the price.

Value for your money

Great course greens were in great shape. One minus was the major amount of clover and dandelions in the short rough off fairways and on a couple of the actual fairways, made it very difficult to find your ball. Great day of golf but would be even better if they cut the clover down a little shorter.

Short fun course

Not a bad course, fairly flat and short if you aren't hitting it straight could be a challenge on some holes with water and long grass in places, greens are decent and undulating, carts are a bit rough but ran fine

Beginning to be on of my favourites

Been here several times. Always a good place to play. Staff is polite and friendly.

Course is in very decent shape. Few challenging holes, and a couple of tricky greens to keep you on your toes. Will definitely be back few more times this season

Golf North is killing the courses they buy

I played this courses prior to golf north purchasing it and I can't believe how much worse it is now that they own it. I won't be playing there again.

Windy weather
Used cart

Greens were in great shape for the time of year.

Three of us played. Fairways were extremely wet. Greens were in great shape considering it was Oct 23rd. Cart fees were too high considering the condition of the carts. One of the other groups on the course had the roof come off their cart as it was not fastened on properly. None of the carts had windshields which considering how windy it was would have been nice to have. The cart I used often had trouble starting.

Aerated greens with no sand to fill in the holes. Largest sand dunes in Ontario across the street. Golf carts are the worst. Oldest ones in Ontario make it to Sandhills. Terrible value for the money,
