fall bonus

Played this course on Oct. 23 and the weather was unseasonably warm but windy. It rained a little on the back nine but didn't last long. The greens had been airiated a few weeks before but had recovered well. Always enjoy playing this course but the leaves on the ground added to pace of play and lost several balls that landed in a bunch of leaves and couldn't be found but that is normal for fall golf in Canada. Great value for the money

perfect day

The day could not have been better weather wise. I put down first time that I played this course because it was 28 years since I last played it. Staff was friendly and we were a little early for our tee time and they let us right out. Found the fairways in good condition, and the rough fairly short which I believe speeds up play. Only one green was a little rough and that was on the blue course, they were receptive and held the ball well on landing and the ball ran true on all greens. It is a minor complaint but I found the little pictures of the holes misleading at times, example is the pond is not shown on the 9th hole on the blue course and I hit what I thought was a safe shot until I came around the corner and saw the pond. Enjoyed our round and will be back

inexpensive round

course was very dry considering all the rain we have had ,greens were receptive and fairly fast, fairways were a little patchy and rough. Was looking for a cheap round walking and got what I wanted. If you like to play golf and not have a course that punishes you for wayward shots this is a course for you. Some greens test your putting skills overall a pleasant round

hard fairways

I have played this course approximatley one or two times a year since it was called Highlands. The fairways usually dry out in summer but this summer was harder on the fairways then most. The additional roll was nice but the hard ground made the second shots a little more difficult as it was hard to get under the ball, There was no marshal on the course and we were stuck behind a slow foursome that would not let anyone play through , played the first 5 holes in 25 minutes and took 4 hours to play the last 13. The greens were in good condition and the putts ran true, they were a little hard but gave enough to hold your ball , aside from the slow foursome who showed no golf manners at all I had an enjoyable round because of the nice weather and a lovely couple I joined up with

great shape

course was in excellent shape and the greens were fairly soft which surprised me considering the dry weather we have been having.. rough was fairly short and finding ball was fairly easy but you were still penalized for stray shots by the abundance of trees lining the fairways and I had a few times when I had to play the ball back into the fairway rather than go for the green because of tree obstruction. There were marshals to keep the pace of play moving and I had an enjoyable day on the course and I would go back in a minute.

nasty rough

Course was in very good condition. they have some very challenging holes on this course, I had a bad driving day and paid the price as secondary rough is very thick and trees also caused lots of trouble, Greens were a little slow but in great shape and traps are around quite a few greens keeping your approach shots honest. Staff was very friendly and the dress code allows denim which is nice in this day and age, I believe collared shirts should be worn but neat blue jeans should be allowed . This course is a good challenge for any level of golfer as they have 4 sets of tee blocks that change the level of difficulty considerably

great value

we had a perfect day weather wise and the course was in great condition. Many of the greens had substantial breaks in the putts and were quite fast. The fairways were fairly wide and pristine in condition but if you strayed to far to the left or right your next shot usually had some sort of tree trouble. The staff was super friendly and very helpful. Hope to be able to go back a few times this year

greens rough

The fairways and tee areas were in great shape but the greens were aerated and were very bumpy and the putts bounced off line quite a bit, I think they should not have charged as much as they did because of the greens

great recovery

I got caught on the 4th hole in a bad thunderstorm and took refuge in a open pump house , it rained for about an hour and a half, when we resumed play there were puddles on the 4th and 5th greens and the pair I was playing with decided to quit because of this. By the 7th hole the puddles were gone from the greens and besides the wet conditions in the traps the course recovered remarkably well. Really enjoyed the course
