Overbookied

This course was way over booked. It took 3 hours to finish 9. We were supposed to 18 but when we got to 10 there were 3 groups waiting to tee off so we called it. The Starter had no idea what he was doing and the Marshalls didn’t say a word to anyone about rate of play. And waiting all that time there was no beer cart.

Former member

I lived in Niagara Falls in the 80's and still try and get back from time to time. I was a member at Willodell for 5 years. It is still a great track. We got a hot deal, which made the day even better.

DEFINITELY GIVE THIS COURSE A SHOT

They have a good course with a great staff. Course has a challenging layout but is still fun for golfers of all handicaps.
I recommend giving this course a try and you won’t be disappointed. Can’t wait to play this course in the Fall.

Great value for the money!

The course was in very good shape and was enjoyable to play. The back nine is considerably more interesting than the front nine and I’d definitely return to play.

SLO, slow day

I have played this course many times and had good and bad experiences. Booked last minute on a hot deal for my son and I. Was a good price. Took almost 6 hours to play 18, had to wait to take every single shot. Seemed to me the course is making up for lost time, taking all comers, tee time or not. Saw beer cart once, parked, never moved. Came back around, gone. Long round to not have refreshments. Do better!

Interesting Layout

Interesting dog leg holes and lots of nature surrounds. Greens were fast and true, making up for the pot holes along the fairway. Lots of work being done to keep the bunkers playable.
Booked a walking rate and then rented a cart when checking in. Cart rate rather pricy at $50 per cart!!!

Overpriced Carts

Willowdell is the most expensive course for carts. They charged us the full amount individually even though it was shared usage of the cart. Course is in good condition but the layout is a little too tight around certain holes. Members are often forcing others to move faster in order make their game convenient. Finished our round in 3 hours and 15 mins because we kept being compelled to mover faster than pace of play.
