Lovely Course...Shame about the Staff!!

The day started very badly with the guy behind the counter in the pro shop. He was quite rude and very disinterested in serving us. The starter was very pleasant and he got us going a few minutes early as it was not busy.
After a while, we were caught by a group playing quite quickly, and before we could let them play through,they complained to staff. We were then told to play faster as we were getting behind. Ruined the rest of the round for all of us. By the way, we played the round in just under 4 hours!!
This is a very nice course to play, but we won't go back!!

not what it was

Played this course a few years ago and was impressed. It played long and the fairways and greens were in very good shape. This time the greens are in horrid repair and the fairways were hard and chewed up. Not worth the money charged now. There are a number of courses in Niagara that are a better value. A little TLC would go a long way here.

Still fun to Play

Haven't been to Sawmill for a few years, but it hasn't changed too much. Same challenging course with a number of forced layups, lots of water and rolling fairways you can't always see. The course is in GREAT shape and the greens roll very well. I would tell anyone to go play this course!!

Nice Walk

Sparrow Lakes- Heron is a very nice course to play. Pretty straight forward with quite a bit of water and lots of sand around the greens. Fairly long course that plays really long if you're not in the fairway. All in all, a great day washed by us all!

Very Pleasant Day

I would recommend this course to anyone who would like to spend a great day in the country. Not only is the drive to the course a very nice experience, the course itself is wonderful to play. Everything is well cared for. The greens are in good shape and are much more difficult than they look. Fairly long, especially from the gold tees. Keep it in the fairways because the rough is long and not easy to play from. All in all, a very nice day!!

A GREAT Day!

Booked an 8:20 tee time and got out on the course about 40 minutes early because when we checked in, there was no one ready to go.
This course is absolutely in beautiful shape and judging by all the workers present, is very well maintained. It is very forgiving , for the most part, but you must keep your ball in or near the fairway. There are also quite a few lay-up shots to keep yourself out of trouble. All in all, I recommend this course to anyone who wants a very pleasant round of golf.

fun course to play

For the most part, this course is in good shape. The ground was very hard and the ball ran forever. However, it very often ran into trouble. Lots of shots over water and distances where you need to lay up. The greens were a little marked up and quite slow but had lots of very subtle breaks you didn't see. All in all, a good course and lots of fun. The staff are very friendly and pleasant. Go to Pelham Hills, it's a great day!!

Bumpy Ride

This course has very undulating fairways and is not the nicest ride. Walking would be much easier on the body! Other than that, the course waist good shape. The greens were quick and have some very subtle breaks that are hard to see. Overall, lots of fun and a good spot for anyone who loves to play.

Nice Day

It was a beautiful day for golf and the course was in very nice shape. It was quite wet in spots as there was lots of rain the prior two days. The course is not overly difficult, although, you must try to avoid the rough as it is fairly long and very difficult to hit out of. Greens are receptive but much more difficult than they look. Lots of little ridges that are hard to detect.
Overall, an extremely nice place to play golf for the novice as well as the more experienced.

This course is well laid out.

The course is very easy to find your way around. There are not many real hazards to worry about, very little water and few sand traps. However, there are some twists and turns to the holes that make for some interesting decisions. Enjoy!!

this course is fun for guys who can't play as much as they would like.

The course itself is in good shape and well taken care of. It is mostly wide open, but there are a few holes that can pose a problem if the ball is not well placed. There are some water hazards that can also pose a problem.
All in all, a fun course to walk and play.

Love Sparrow Lakes

Not the first time we've been here and we'll keep going back. The course is always in very good shape and pace of play is never a concern. It's easy to walk and although not overly challenging, if you don't play the fairways, it can jump up and bite you. Overall, a great day of golf!

Nice Place To Play Golf

This course is just like the name says. A very nicely laid out course among rolling hills. Some quite easy holes as well as, some very difficult ones. Features lots of water, with a number of creeks and ponds. Also a couple of quite long par 3's to deal with. Overall, a good day of golf for just about everyone to enjoy!
