Great practice course
Good 9 hole for practice. Challenging holes. 3rd hole is in terrible condition but other than that the course was in great shape.
Good deal causes embarrassment
GolfNow really negotiated good deals for the members!
Let me show you an example, upon check in yesterday, I was told cart was not included even after showing the confirmation. The lady said the price was so cheap that cart would not be included. It was after consultation with her supervisor that I got the cart!
Would appreciate if you guys can alert the golf course that their front desk staff should well informed of their provision to customers to eliminate such embarrassment.
Take A Cart
As a 61 year old who had never played the course before, I wish the staff would have recommended a cart to me. To me I was just going to play nine holes so I took a pull cart. To my surprise I discovered that the course is extremely hilly and definitely not for walking, especially with a pull cart. An electric cart is a must. I almost ditched the pull cart and to carry my clubs, but I stubbornly persevered. I can't believe I didn't have a heart attack. The course, however is very picturesque and challenging for nine holes. I went during the week and got on right away. The clubhouse, if you can call it that, is awful and does not encourage one to stay for a cool one after their round.
Beautiful Course but Hole #3 is unplayable
It's a challenging course which I have enjoyed playing for many years. However, the consistently waterlogged fairway on hole 3 makes it hard to recommend this course. The management has said that the city has no plans of fixing it.
It's Uplands....
If you've never played the game of golf before and have 3+ hours to play 9 holes on a Sunday this is the perfect course.
Nice scenery, yet challenging for walking
Very difficult to walk, definitely needs a cart.
Not for beginners
Played this course for the first time last night, twilight round. Was told it was walking only and thought, sure why not? it's only 9 holes. 9 holes of serious hillage! Maybe fine for a youngin' or a goat (saw that in another review) but being in my 50's this turned out to be a negative fun affair. If you must play here GET A CART and drive safe. Holes are challenging, know your distance with your clubs, take extra balls and be accurate or frustration will soon take hold. Otherwise it's a scenic course, especially at the apex of the ski hill after the par 4/5 5th.
Not suitable to walk
Terrible experience as the residents surrounding the course treats the course as extension of their own backyard, we encountered residents stopping our play by walking in front of our group towards the green to look for his dog and two groups of cyclists strolling on the fairways and greens.
Challenging 9 holes
This is the toughest 9 hole course I have played. Slopes are steep because the course is used as a ski hill in the winter. Greens are in good condition but fairways are lumpy and irregular from a lot of ground moisture. I strongly advise taking a golf cart because some of the paths are very steep, up and down. If you like a challenge, you'll love this course.
Great track!
I play Uplands frequently. You can pull the driver out quite a bit and the holes are different and challenging enough it makes for an interesting round of golf.
not what it used to be...
Played here many times over the years (live close by); course has seen better days. Tee boxes chewed up; greens need repair (don't golfers know how to repair ball-marks anymore?); fairways bumpy (especially on hole #3 - to be fair, I know there is a drainage problem there); carts ageing. It is a challenging course, and not many people know that, considering it's "only" 9 holes. That's a legacy of the former 18 hole course. However, on the day we played, there was a tournament finishing, and, to their credit, course officials were able to clear that up proficiently. I know the course is owned by the city of Vaughan, and probably is a money-loser (along with the skiing facilities in our now-shortened winters).
Short in Yardage, but tight in accuracy
Very nice old fashioned design where accuracy is needed ahead of length. Greens are small and well bunkered.
Accuracy of both drives and second shots into the greens are critical
Very Enjoyable
The challenge is on
One really does need to be part goat to walk this
course. The pro shop should warn those in advanced
age groups to take a cart!!
Good challenge close to home
Challenging holes even though it's only 9. Lots of trees and elevated greens to challenge most mid to high range golfers.
Good local course
I've played Uplands a number of times, and usually find it to be enjoyable and very scenic. There is a tendency for the course to back up as the pace of play bogs down. Add in some newer players and a few blind tee locations and you can have golf balls raining on you. Stay alert and have fun.
Took more than three hours for 9 holes of golf.
The course condition was not bad except for the third hole. However, the pace of play was unacceptable and there was no course marshall to be seen for the three and a quarter hours we had to suffer. The staff didn't mention about a tournament full of newbies right in front of us when we checked in. I would not have played here if it was going to be a 3+ hour for nine holes of golf.
very intetesting course layout
Very interesting hole layouts...almost to the point of annoying (but not quite...fine line between fun & annoying)...Quite a few blind shots, over/around trees, etc.
LOTS of hills...I walked and found it a very tiring by the end of the nine. Low value in this course if you have to pay for a riding cart for the 9.
It was not busy at all...no one in front or behind me, allowed me to take a few smoke breaks to get some rest from the long trek up/down the hills.
Overall a fun 9 holes, but would not go back as it is not a pleasant walk (I try and walk when I can).
Location is great as it is in the GTA
