One of our favourite courses.

Great people running a great course at a reasonable price point for us snow birds. Some courses take advantage of us every year but not Swiss Fairways. We will be back again next winter for 3 months of Swiss Fairway golf.

Greens and fairways in decent shape

Greens and fairways are in good shape but the tee boxes in general are very poor with sand being the main ingredient on them.

Thank you for your review. Good news, we know we don't have the best tee boxes, which is why we are going to focusing heavily on them over the summer. We hope you will continue to come play with us and experience the ongoing changes.

Course is in good shape.

3 local golfers using their own carts held us up on the back nine so much that a group behind us started hitting into our group in frustration. Very dangerous conditions to play under. The same group that held us up quit on the 16th hole and headed home on their carts so we assume they started on 15 instead of #1.
This is twice now that a marshal could have improved play by speaking to the group in front of us. Very disappointed . Not sure if we will come back.

I apologize for the experience you had. None of the behavior you mentioned in your comment is tolerated at our course. If you ever feel like our ranger isn't doing enough, please call the pro shop to report the issues you are experiencing. We hope you will come back out for another round with us before writing us off! Happy golfing!

Cold and windy today but total sun shine

This course can kick your rear end on a windy day but man it can be fun too. Me two other great Canadian guys and spent 3 hours and a bit fighting our way around the beauty of a layout. John has the course in good shape but if I could make one suggestion: it's time to get the mowers out and trim the rough, around the bunkers and waste areas. We will be back soon.

7:23 tee time

we book early to get a quick round of golf in before the heat builds and the course fills. Mon. we had the same time and played in under 3 hours. Today, we had a foursome in front of us who played from the tips on every hole and from what we could witness they must have shot well over 100. Our average wait for every shot behind this group was over 5 minutes, every shot! 3 times we saw a marshal stop and talk to the group but nothing ever changed.

Thank you for your review, we truly appreciate it. Unfortunately, some groups don't understand common courtesy so we do run into issues. We hope you will come join us again soon and have a quicker morning round!

poor value

Greens are better than the old ones but the rest of the course seems to be slipping. Construction traffic at the main gate almost causing accidents as the line ups to get in had us stopped in a long line all the way out to the 17-92 hwy. I sat for 15 minutes before getting through security. I gave 5 star for pace as we were out first in the morning. If not for Hot deals we would never play here at advertised pricing.

Well run location

From arrival to departure this place seems to be well run. We teed off exactly on our time 8:12 AM and finished at 12:10 PM. Bunkers are plentiful but well manicured and not a mess like some other courses. Fairway grass is thin but playable and the greens are in good shape.. Overall a good value.

Better every time we play.

John has done an exceptional job in bringing this course back to it's former glory. His seasonal staff are part of this story as well. They are only part timers but add to the enjoyment of spending time here. Keep up the great work everyone.

needs work

Played early 8 AM, greens were not ready for play. extreme worm holes and droppings along with the dew made putting a bit laughable. Front desk was very friendly and at $30 a cheap morning but not sure we will be back for a while.

Good winter conditions. Staff are always pleasant. A few tee boxes need some topsoil and seeding, grass does not grow on sand alone.

Thank you for your review. We are continuously working on improving the course, and the tee boxes are definitely high on the list to continue to work on. Hopefully next time you play you will see improvements.

best I have seen for this course

John had done a tremendous job returning this course to it's former glory. From course conditions to the volunteer staff they have done a great job. Each of the last three years have shown a steady improvement in all areas. Good value for the price.

Greens getting better every week

The new greens are coming along nicely but be prepared for some three putts. They roll out well and are a bit difficult to judge for us mid handicappers..........lol Translation: I putted terrible yesterday and it was all on me not the greens. Our rate of $35 was a before 8AM rate. Good deal for us early risers.

First time in 2 years

Wow, Who ever redid the greens is a genius. Although they were sanded today and in need of sweeping they will be fantastic when this happens. I have never seen such consistent growth on every square inch of area on each and every green. Bravo to the superintendent and his staff. Not saying these green will be easy to put but rather they are consistently the same to putt on. We will be back. One happy Canadian!

used our GN credits

No overseeding that we saw, winter conditions, tee areas all need work, greens are patchy but playable. At $25 we can't complain but it could be a much better course with a winter program to over seed. We used up our GN credits so we played for almost no cash, $12 or something like that.

GN Hot deal $35ea.

The new greens are excellent and now match the rest of this course. If they continue to develop as they should this will be an awesome 18 holes of golf. After a many years of poor greens hopefully the new ones thrive.
