First time at course

We came up to the area for golf, found some courses we have played before that were a small fortune to play and found this course on golf now. It was an awesome course, greens were challenging to say the least. Husband managed some pars, for me double bogeys but enjoyed the day.
We would definitely go back next time we come back to the area.

Interesting layout, great value.

First time playing at North Granite Ridge. Staff were very friendly. Conditions were great other than the tee boxes that were in very rough shape. Pace of play was great. Would definitely play again.

Great course

Course was in excellent shape and scenery was beautiful. Everything is immaculate and fairways greens and tee boxes were all in top notch condition. Challenging layout with narrow fairways and several elevated greens. Would recommend.

Gets me every time

This is such a hard course on many levels. Long and narrow holes with forest on both sides. Fast undulating greens that are so hard to match pace with target. Many of the greens are elevated and hard, so very difficult to hold.
All that said, it’s beautiful with no back yards. Staff is friendly and conditions are always pretty good. If you shoot your handicap, ypu e done very well indeed.

Beautiful Course

Loved the course one of the better ones in the area. Some challenges with the mature trees.
Pace of play would be fine if all people played ready ball.

Over all good!

Only hiccup was sanded greens and balls not rolling true until they dried up.
Pace of play could have been a bit better.

Arrived Early Treated Very well

Sunday morning family golf so we headed out early to get back to the water. Even though we were early the starter and proshop gave us the nod to play right away. The round was complete in 3.25 hours without seeing the smaller groups ahead and no pressure from behind! The heavy rains have helps the course stay green but it was soggy in places ; that didn’t help to provide any ‘August’ extended ball rolls!! Awesome morning that seemed tropical in Muskoka with a downpour as we rode away from 18 green! Staff deserve mentioning for their sense of humour and welcoming dispositions despite our timing!! Awesome.

2pm tee time

Well I teed off at 2pm

And only got 12 holes in it was 5:45 when I got to the 12th hole

The course was terribly slow

We should have been on the 17th hole by 5:45

I had to leave before starting the 13th hole was extremely disappointed and frustrated

Hopefully you can compensate me for that round, I don’t care if you give me a credit

Thanks

A Good Day

The course was in great condition and the workers were very friendly.
Only issue was a ranger was needed as 2 groups ahead of us were playing as a six. Also the group behind us twice hit onto the green as we were still playing. The 2nd time I raised my voice and gave them my opinion of their actions. Was truly tempted to start an altercation but I was playing with my two sons.
Besides that, it was a good day especially when the deer appeared on the 15th hole.

Best Course

I have known North Granite since it was a nine hole golf course which is a long time ago.
This is one of the best courses for Muskoka area, if you want a challenge come play it.
I make sure I come every year its worth your while
Thank you North Granite for doing such a great job.
