I did not like having to rate the staff as only good, as all of them but one mature woman working in the food service area were excellent. She was rude and condescending. The rest of were extremely pleasant and very helpful.

There is a good mixture of water and sand hazzards

The Caddy Pro retrieved the ball from the hole very well.

Solid course, well kept

Well maintained course despite COVID. Showed up 7 mins late for our tee time and the marshall got us in within 30 mins and the pace was very comfortable. Drink cart only came around twice. Lots of doglegs and only 3 par 3’s but very enjoyable for the first round of the year and worth the hour+ drive from Toronto.

Very forgiving course

A bit slow but a good round. It would of been nice to know that the greens were aerated before paying for the round today.

Like this layout

Played with 7 friends. We really like the layout. Fairways were in good shape, but greens were inconsistent - some were a bit shaggy, and a few tee blocks were burned out. I understand there was an issue with the watering system during the recent hot weather that led to the poorer conditions. The course was still very playable.

Nice track, slow greens

Not a memorable course, but priced right for a Sunday morning. Fairways were decent, but greens were definitely slow and “fuzzy”. Would play again at same price point.....
