Great Par 3 Course

This course is always in good shape and has a good variety of shorter and longer holes (all par 3's). Best bunkers in town. Large grass deck and chipping area. Nice course to practice your iron game.

Nice course ... gie it a try

This is a short par three course which is in great shape. The only issue is that I fixed about 10 ball marks on every green. These had to be good players to be hitting high shots into the greens and leaving deep ball marks. I guess they figure it is not their responsibility to fix them. Learn the etiquette please. You will make it more enjoyable for all of us.

Aside from that (which is not their fault) the course was fine.

The drink machine even stole my toonie but the fellow in the shop gladly refunded my money and I bought a few drinks. Very friendly.

Challenging practice facility

This is a par-3 course that has a lot of water, marshland and sand bunkers. While not long, it offers a good test of one's iron shots, chipping and putting. The bunkers, in particular, are better than most in this part of Ontario, featuring the kind of soft white sand more often found on resort courses in the south. Not the kind of course I would want to play often but certainly well worth an hour and a half once in a while.

White Sands lives up to name

This course is great. The greens and fairways were really well maintained, and some holes were a pretty fair distance for a par 3 course. There are giant bunkers surrounding most greens, hence 'White Sands', so try to avoid those and the tall grass. Also has some water hazards on some holes for added protection. Pretty challenging for intermediate golfers, but still a fun round to play and absolutely worth the hot price.

Great afternoon

My wife and I are not the greatest golfers bud we sure have fun especially on a nice course like White Sands you get the feeling like you are in Florida or somewhere down south. The coarse is short but challenging and we would recommend it to all for a quick game!

Impressed with look and layout

Nice par three with plenty of good quality sand. Nicely sculpted design with lots of water also.
Greens were not perfect but fairly true and cut nice and tight with good speed. I played Red tees to practice my wedges but the back tees offered some respectable length. Had the course to ourselves so had plenty of time for extra shots. Is suitable for beginners as beginners are expected to be there. Extensive range and a good sand and chipping area also.
Will play/practice there again.

great

great par 3 course. this is not a mickey mouse course.. good mix of short and long par 3's, several water traps, surrounding fescue. gorgeous white sand bunkers (as the name implies). usually a good wind coming from the west which makes a couple holes extremely hard for par 3's, especially from the back tees (200y +)

there were some rough greens earlier in the season but seem to be much better now. the odd time i have been and the course needed some maintenance.. rough was long, bunkers not maintained. last time out though (aug 2013) the course was in great overall shape.

at $20 with a small bucket of balls it's a good deal. if you can snag it for $8-10 on here, it's amazing.

par 3

I got a great deal so I took advantage. Nice par 3, 9 hole that has many challenging holes. Greens are in much better shape from a month ago.
