Rainy day in September

Public play allowed in September. Good but not great for a private course. Not up to standards of other area private courses like Muskoka Bay or Clublink. Good value for $95.

Cottage course Fenelon Falls

Pretty basic 9 hole cottage course. Furry greens, tee boxes a mess. somewhat hilly. The greens could use a good cut and the holes are set in ridiculous positions on slopes, usually 3 feet from the edge of the green, no exaggeration. It's okay if you have 90 minutes to kill or are playing with beginners. A better choice (although still a cottage course) is Sturgeon Point.

Not quite up to the hype

Had heard from several golfers on Hilton Head that this course was worth playing. Perhaps it was the pace of play that made it seem average at best. 2 foursomes ahead of us so we watched every shot. Greens are good, lots of subtle breaks. The layout is not terribly challenging, you miss the fairway you are inevitably in pine straw. Water only comes into play on total miss hits. I am a 14 handicap and I never lost a ball which is a rarity.

If you are on HHI I would stick with Cupp, Golden Bear at Indigo or Dolphin Head.

Difficult layout

Early morning round with time on the well set up range and a separate chipping and putting area. Lots of water and well groomed bunkers with coarse sand. Will come back for sure.

Very nice layout. Greens fairly flat and slow. Lots of water in play off the tees. Bunkers all recently groomed. Very nice practice area though the practice putting green was unavailable.

Rough around the edges

A few tee boxes with virtually no grass. Bunkers have no sand. It's like hitting out of concrete. Many rough areas closest to the fairway have no grass. Could be a nice layout if it was better cared for.

Other nearby options are better value.

course is in great shape.

Carts only on the back nine shouldn't last for long as the course has dried out nicely. Greens are perfect, fairways like carpets.
