Pheasant Run Golf Club - Southern Uplands

First time playing this course in 20 years. The course was in great shape & can't wait to play it again. Steve

This is definitely a challenging course if you have difficulty hitting the ball where you want it to go. The narrow fairways, unseen gullies, and sloping fairways make this a true test of golf. It is a course that would take most players at least a few rounds to figure out exactly what to do (more to then actually do it). Will have to return.

Great track wish it was a bit longer but overall quite challenging!

I played Highlands and Southern Uplands and both are good (par 37 and 35, respectively). The rating/slope from the whites is 69.5/134, which I found to be rather generous (it is challenging but there are no 200 yard carries over valleys/fescue which you often see associated with tough courses). When I went to enter my score (85 - I have a 13.7 index) into the Golf Association of Ontario web site, it indicated that this course does not have an 'official' GAO slope or rating and is ineligible to be entered. That was frustrating if you are someone who tracks your handicap. BTW I would put the course (whites) at 69.5/128 if I were assessing it.

I went to this course to try something different from my usual courses. The course itself is quite challenging and the conditions were satisfactory for the cost of the round. However I was surprised when I completed my round to find the course is not a member of the Golf Association of Ontario and thus does not have a valid course and slope rating. As a golfer who plays many competitive rounds as well as recreational and likes to keep an accurate handicap. I was left feeling the round was somewhat of a waste of time not being able to post it towards my handicap.

Three 9-holes, well-maintained, a good mix of bunkers, water, narrow fairways, elevation.. Great deal especially on Hot Deals!

Played on an early Monday tee-time. Didn't know the driving range was closed until noon on Mondays so no warm up. Not busy so played at our own pace. Staff very helpful and friendly.

Overrated course, too expensive, too far to drive!
$39.00 special is if you tee off at night...omg amazing!

Course was in absolutely awful condition. Fairways hadnt been cut in days. Was absolutely astonished that the regular rate is around 100$. I paid 65 and felt i was ripped off.

Great course, the staff was excellent, looked after us right away, overall everything was great. Would play here again.

Three nines to choose from to make it an 18. Nice course, never too busy it seems. Pace of play is great. Mind you, every time I play this course I tee off by 8 am. Fastest finish through 18 with a buddy here was about 2.5 hours. I like this course a lot. Still though don't think its an $85-$90 golf course. Over priced.

Nice course. Fairways can be tight at times. Looks great

The golf is great but it's the scenery that steals the show. The varied elevations and vistas make the round truly enjoyable. The fairways are fairly narrow and lined with mature forest, if your drives are not straight you are going to find this course challenging.

said good morning to the staff to checkin but no answer. how impolite even in the morning???? Overal staff in the casher and in the gate not polite at all. This needs to be trained and fixed as their poor attitude and bahavior caused me to damage how I play golf for the day.

Second time playing pheasants run , first was 10 years ago so my recollection of the course was a little foggy. Upon arrival at the course I was greeted by a an array of tall fully matured pine trees surrounding the edges of the fairway of the 18th hole. It was the same when we teed up on the 1st hole of the highlands. If you're like me and love playing a course that's been carved out of the wilderness this is the course for you. The greens are small and appear to be average speed without heavy undulations but tht isn't the case. There deceptively fast with subtle breaks that take a precise and trained eye to identify. My biggest praise for the course was the pace of play perhaps cause of the location or the time of day we literally had the whole course to ourselves with no one ahead or behind us. For me this course is both challenging and rewarding with narrow and undulated fairways so every approach shot has your ball placed above or below your feet. All in all I love this course and can't wait to play it again.

First time at Pheasant Run and we enjoyed it. Staff were friendly and helpful. Some beautiful views. Some par 5 holes were a little short. Greens were not as good as would have been expected but probably in good shape given the harsh winter. Would golf it again but look for a cheaper rate.

Played 18 on Highlands to Midlands. Found the course to have its challenges with some narrow passages on some holes with also some difficult elevations. The greens were pretty standard and not incredible tough and I liked the speed the ball moved on them. The forested views gave me a British Columbia feel with large tree lines and great landscape in the background. I would definitely go back as I found it to have its challenges in places and great spread layout.

I got a deal from Golfnow and teed off early this morning. Played Midlands then Uplands. The course is quite challenging, generally all uneven lies, and in good condition. Only that they are working on the bunkers, I guess due to the rain, and the greens and fairways are a bit sandy. Green still putts true. Generally, great course. Worth playing again.

Played Highlands/Midlands 9's. First time back in over 30 years when was only 18 holes. Course has certainly matured. Staff/starter very friendly and helpful, although got moved from one 9 to another just before teeing off as it was less busy. Was to our advantage though. Very good practice area for warm up with balls provided. Played Highlands first. Challenging/tight opening hole par 5, uphill shot to green. Needed extra club at least to large green. Sprinklers marked with yardages to middle of greens. Flags not indicate front, centre back but there were crystals on the flags to help the rangefinder. Many picturesque scenic, downhill tee shots, uphill greens. Some blind shot off tees or onto greens which I do not like, especially if do not know the course. Midlands 9 was a bit flatter overall. Challenging par 5's, tight, scenic. 9th hole, our 18th, very tight dogleg left, with water all along left side of dogleg, steep uphill to green after strategic layup.
Would definitely play again. Great GolfNow value.

First of all the course is great. 27 holes, some of which can be pretty challenging. Definitely better than your average course. Pace of play for me playing as a solo golfer in a cart was unbelievable. Finished 18 holes in 2 hours, and played through 2 3somes that would have held me up. Course is generally well maintained, though some bunkers were full of water and others had rocks in them. I'm not risking dinging up my $170 vokey wedge, so I dropped with no penalty beside the bunker. I played the course for $29.99 on golfnow which was worth every penny. You may be slightly disappointed if you spend $100 on their regular weekend rate though. For $100+ I'm expecting playable bunkers.

Overall review 4/5 stars
