Beautiful course!

The Horseshow valley resort Highlands course was challenging with a great layout! The course was well maintained and nicely groomed. Located just off the 400 Hwy. It is a nice drive from Toronto for a great afternoon of golf. I have played numerous courses in the GTA and southern ontario with a price range between $25-$75 per round and I would rate this course as one of the top in that range.

Very scenic and in excellent condition for the time of year

I enjoyed the scenery and the condition of the course considering the time of year. The leaves were all cleared off the fairways and if you stayed on the fairway you were easily able to keep track of the balls.

some really tight holes and modified tee decks due to buildings. mostly really nice though

some really pretty holes, some not so much due to proximity to developments.
greens are ok, not the best
front 9 has some really challenging holes.
gotta hit long and straight off the tee or your score will suffer.
all and all a fun golf course

Great mature course with great setting

The Highlands is a beautiful, mature , challenging course. It has tree lined fairways with enough hills and valleys to make it challenging and yet, playable by all levels of golfers.
I highly recommend a day or 2 at Horse Valleys Highland course.

Nice setting for most holes

It would have been nicer if they don't change the original 1st hole to being the 10th and from a par 4 to par 3.
To play the course you need to meander thru several residential streets basically thru a tour of the neighborhood.
But the area is still an enjoyable course to play away from the city.

Worth the drive

We played the Highlands course and although the facillities were not much too look at the course was tight ( tree lined) and very scenic. Greens were fast and true. Hitting fairways a must here. We'll try Valley course next time
