eQuinelle Golf Club is the centerpiece of eQuinelle Master-Planned Golf Course Community, an upscale residential community in Kemptville. It opened in 2009, making it one of Ottawa's newer courses but it quickly garnered a following as one of the best public golf courses in the area. The layout features massive, undulating greens and bent grass fairways that have subtle contours. Golfers will have to contend with many large, strategically positioned bunkers and some tricky natural fescue areas. There are five sets of diverse tees, giving golfers the ability to make the golf course as challenging as they want. eQuinelle's signature hole is the par-3 16th. This 170-yard hole plays over water to a very wide, contoured green that slopes severely to the right. Tall maples form a horseshoe around the green and there's also a pond to the right. Pin placement will play an important role on this tough hole.

eQuinelle is a great course

I love eQuinelle. The only reason I lowered their score on food/beverage is that they got rid of Mill St. Organic from the beer list and they have a temporary trailer as their clubhouse (but a new one is under construction). The cost is excellent for the quality of golf and the staff is the best. I'd golf here all the time if I lived in Kemptville. Look for their rain deal if you want the most economical option.

Played Equinelle May 18

With the exception that the course was still a bit damp and it was cart path only, the experience was excellent. Greens are in amazing shape, great value for the money!

Windy Challenge

Played eQuinelle for the first time this year, though the course was damp from the heavy rains the night before and the winds were gusting sometimes up to 30Km, the course was in excellent condition and the greens were receptive and running true. The course challenges all levels of players and is a great mix of hole to make you play draws or fades.

Equinelle Golf Club

This course is a real joy to play with a beautiful layout that keeps challenging you through out the whole 18. The fairways were in mid July shape and the greens roled very true. I strongly recommend this course if you have not been add to your to do list.

Tough one

Nice course. Decent shape. Very slow.

In full disclosure, it was a beauty fall day that was slowed by a frost delay....which is understood.... We were beyond 3 hrs after 10 complete holes. Upon contacting the clubhouse to Marshall things along... The Marshall came out to 'prove' that we were on time, pointing to his time sheet.. Funny, as almost as soon as he left, we were able to confirm that they had done bugger all to move the slow pokes. We could clearly see that there were two full holes empty. To the Marshall's... Sure, you get free golf... But you still have an obligation to keep people moving and to remove slow pokes. To argue an indefensible position is just ignorant. PS to find slow pokes, drive backwards. Regression analysis... If holes are open, the first group u come across are the culprits.... Not those kicking about slow play.

This course is located in the middle of no where, and whilst nice... It ain't Augusta. $60 on 'special' pricing, with a cart at this time of year is insulting for the rubbish level of courtesy..and slow play

Won't go back. I would say less, but....

Bien entretenu

Notre première visite s'est très bien déroulée. Les verts étaient d'une bonne vitesse. Le seul hic, c'est qu'il n'y a pas d'eau potable sur le terrain et qu'il n'y avait pas de voiturette de breuvages...ce n'est que sur le deuxième 9 qu' employé est passé avec de l'eau. Récemment nous avons joué sur un terrain où il n'y a pas d'eau potable et au premier trou le "marscall" a remis une bouteille d'eau à chaque joueur. Un geste qui ne coûte pas cher à l'entreprise mais qui est apprécié.

Beautiful course. Needs a couple more years to mature.

I have played this course a couple times before. Unfortunately they aerated all the greens and some of the fairways which made the short game that much more difficult. Not sure why they would do that in August. Had we known that the course was being aerated we would not have booked it.

Great course layout, offers something for any skill level

First off, the first two holes set the tone and really show it's difficulty on the 7-9th stretch which continues the same pattern on the back nine. This course offers something for any skill, having wide but well bunkered fairways, level square tee blocks always reminds me of tournament play, big but undulating greens. The only negative aspect, at least from the tips, I found I hit a lot of the same clubs into the greens, 8,7,pw & 3 or 4 irons. But that can be changed with the pin placement. I also found who ever put the pins in we're putting them too deep, which made rough edges. Overall, the starter said I'd be impressed and I was. Fun an enjoyable.

Nice course south of Ottawa

Second time I played this course this year. It is a very nice & challenging course. Very disappointed that the two for one Hot Deal was because greens had been aerated and would not have gone if I had known this in advance. Earlier this year the course was immaculate.
