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.

Nice Course, but lacks in areas

Greens were rough, and the slowest greens I have played this year. Construction going on all over the back 9. It’s a nice course, but I feel it’s over priced. Lacks what it needs to be a $130/ round course,

Course was in good condition

Over all course in great shape, like the switch from front nine to back nine. New sand traps are great

Surprised

I convinced my usual foursome to play here as the first stop on a 4 day golf getaway. I played Lora Bay a couple of times about 10 years ago. We were all very disappointed in the condition of the course. They have really let it go. We won'y be back.

Beautiful golf course. Some areas currently under construction, but did not impede the flow of the game. A little bit slow but otherwise fantastic.

talented golfers

We were paired with 2 others and they were excellent golfers, Not only very, very good players but their golf etiquette was off the charts good. The staff at every level was exceptional. I love this course just wish it was a little less money so I could play it more often

Play the Bay.

Fabulous golf course with beautiful views of the bay and plenty of picturesque holes to keep your eyes busy. Awesome layout with both tough challenges and chances to score. Very fair. Great choice to reroute the course, new 18th finish is perfect..

Had a wonderful time, from the moment you arrive to the second you leave, the service and level of quality on the entire property is exquisite. Can’t wait to be back next year.
