The Golf Club at Lora Bay
Rating Snapshot
About
Tucked away in the Blue Mountains, The Club at Lora Bay offers a stunning view of the Georgian Bay. The golf course was carved from the mature woodlands along the Nipissing Ridge, incorporating wildlife preserves and century-old barns into the design. The scenic course even features idyllic apple orchards along the fairways. While the rustic charm can be enchanting, don't let it distract you too much from the challenging layout. Numerous bunkers are strategically placed throughout and brooks and ponds come into play on several holes. The third hole is one of the toughest on the golf course. It is the longest par-3 with a pond that runs all along the right side from tee to green and trees and a tricky bunker to the left.

Great lake views
This course has everything you need. Great shape fabulous views and length for those longer hitters. Pace was good staff welcoming , what you would expect from a good course.
Great views
Lora bay
Very nice golf course. Very windy which you expect being by the bay. Course was in really good condition. Greens were in great shape and rolled well. Lots of nice views with bay there and some very nice houses. Only complaint I would have is the price in my opinion not worth as much money as they charged other than that a great course and a good day.
Good conditions
Pace of play was very slow. Never saw a Marshall and never saw a beverage cart despite 30 degree weather. Course in good condition and some very nice holes of golf. For the price of $92 per player was way too high for this course compared to other courses in the area at $50 with a 3:40 pm start on a weekday
Great round, incredible views
Really nice track, lots of tee options, tough but playable. Highly recommend
Fairways a little shaggy and bunkers poor with little sand
Course was in great shape however I found the sand in the bunkers was compacted/hard and greens were very fast. Very nice track to play overall
$135 Disappointment
Played Lora Bay about 7-8 times over the last few years. Greens were punched up and inconsistent. This information should be posted on the website so people know what they are paying for. I understand the circumstances and I sympathize with the golf industry, but taking advantage of people by charging high season rates for spring rate golf conditions is wrong.
Lora Bay
Enjoyed this course before and was looking forward to playing again. The conditions were tough with a lot of wind. There were also a number of slow groups in front of us that looked to be together. That was frustrating and they only started to pick up the pace once the Marshall spoke to them on the 14th hole. Too late at that point.
Ok
Honestly for $120 in mid October I was not overly impressed. Cart path only and only select fairways were wet - no discount. No sand in the bunkers Is not acceptable at this price point regardless of Covid etc.
Course layout and conditions other than bunkers were good.
I’ll. Be back to give it a second chance - hope it’s better next year.
