Terrible groundskeeping

I knew there was trouble when this course came up so cheap but the rough was horrendous the dandelions were awful it's just looks ugly!

Awesome day on the links

Played this beautiful and challenging course on a nice early autumn day. Pace of play was great - 3 hours and twenty minutes (twosome) walking. Greens are pretty fast with movement - will be back soon

Great experience overall

Value for the money is superb. It’s a wide open track with few trees lining the fairways. They make up for the lack of trees and challenge you with many ponds and good bunker placements.

I will be heading back there soon.

Disappointing

Very over priced compared to other courses that are much more well kept in the area. They are not upfront about charges and you will encounter hidden fees, you’ll see that’s a trend if you read the reviews. Very unwelcoming as well it felt like I was visiting someone home that they didn’t want me in. The employees seem very on edge too and look lost or confused half the time. Try the brock course or whirlpool or really anything would be better than here

November Golf

Hard for me to criticize this course as it is one of my favorite little gems, and you cant expect much in November. (bonus days)

However, the round this week was right after an aeration and sand overseed. Greens were virtually un-puttable.

It was also really wet (cart path only) which I wish I knew about both, before driving all that way.

still a great track and weather was perfect

Good Conditions for Fall

Always a nice golf course in Welland. Except for the sand bunkers that were hard, everything else was in really good conditions.
