Best 9 Hole Course I have played

This course is in a beautiful setting with a good challenge. The greens were in excellent condition.
The only issue were the deer flies were annoying, but not the courses fault.

Picture perfect.

As the name say's A Diamond in The Ruff.
This course is one of the best maintained courses in the area, I have played most of them.
A short but well manicured course, great if you want an easy walk, with great conditions.
The greens are perfect with some undulations.
I look at this course as a mini championship style course.
Well worth it.

incredible condition…..

Magnificent greens and fairways….too bad it's only a 9 holer ….great tee boxes for the forward tees as they are the most realistic for ladies…..very easy whites
and moderate blues. Big hitters can drive some of the par 4 greens….over all great course.

nicest 9 hole in ontario

We only had a couple hours to spare on a beautiful saturday morning up at the cottage. This is the perfect course for that. A nicely maintained, somewhat challenging 9 hole course for those short golf windows.
