Club at Bond Head - North

Arrived at the course ahead of tee time, pleasantly greeted at bag drop, given directions to pro shop and where carts were parked with bags. Well organized with two different courses. Enough staff so no scrambling. checkin fast. Played north course first time. started on time. Not a flat course this one very scenic cut through hilly farm land with many ups and downs. All tees have forced carries to fairways that finding level flat space difficult.. Know your level of play or you will be beat up bad.by playing the wrong set of tees. Good mix of right left doglegs to elevated well trapped greens which in most part had good sand. Good mix of 4's,5' and 3's. Yardage book would have been nice to help with distances on forced carries ad hazards. Greens were fast, rolling and quite varied in shapes, sizes and alignments. First cut of rough thick but playable, second hasn't seen a rough cut mower for a while and was in my opinion too long for mid to high handicapp golfers. It also slowed pace of play as balls would settle down out of sight quite often. Needing good tracking and many pairs of eyes sometimes to locate. As other reviews have stated you will walk a lot between cart paths and green complexes up and down from the many elevation changes which is very true. Our threesome thoroughly enjoyed playing this course, it was spectacular. They key was playing from the correct tee boxes for our abilities in fact we adjusted during our round, if we hadn't the course would not get a good review. It can be a great enjoyable round or a miserable one, the golfers choice.

Playing at this course explained in one word….amazing
However the pace of play was horrendous
Overall great course

Greens and layout were challenging. Bunkers were worse than the most inexpensive municipal courses (not because its october…hard packed not groomed weeds growing in all of the traps) fairways were nice but a lot of standing water despite no rain in weeks. Numerous tee boxes were unable to get a tee in the ground. Broke 3 trying to put them in. Lastly bully marshall was friendly enough but approaching after 3rd and again at 7th hole…unnecessary. By 7th hole we were 13 min/hole until 3/4 in our party messed up drives requiring re tees on the 8th hole. Finished 9 in 4hrs 15. Last 9 holes were waiting for foursome ahead almost every shot…finished in 4:30. Overall underwhelmed for 1 hr outside of gta and a $93 fee. Oh. Our server was nice in the restaurant. Please listen to your staff and order some cider!!

Front 9 is kinda challengeable
And fun

The mainternace back 9 is so so

The starter was not available to send us out. We had to go into pro shop to advise that we did not have a key for the golf cart.
We were not provided with a score card by starter. We had to request one from the marshal on the course

Requires good shot management and a detailed course layout on the scorecard would be super helpful for ‘first timers’!
