South Park Golf Course
Played On 09/14/2019Short, and ragged
Simple track, not in good shape. Most tee blocks are wobbly, and some have no grass. Fairways are indistinguishable from the rough.
Puslinch Lake Golf Course
Played On 09/07/2019Short, but very sweet
If, like me, you have trouble driving the ball 200 yards, this course is awesome. Good layout, tough but fair, in excellent shape. My partner, who drives 260, thought it was too short.
Thundering Waters Golf Club
Played On 08/06/2019Why is this course so waterlogged?
It's been a very dry couple of weeks, but had to play 'cart paths only' for most of the course, because it was so overwatered. Large swaths of fairway were torn up from trying to keep them cut. So many areas were simply unplayable. Cart paths flooded. Never seen so much casual water in the bunkers - during a drought! Non irrigated areas were bone dry and equally unsightly.
Also disappointing were the conditions in and around most of the bunkers. Unmanicured, and totally taken over with weeds.
To be fair, there are some very nice holes, which require strategic direction and club selection.
Legends on the Niagara Golf Course - Battlefield
Played On 10/22/2017Management needs a makeover
The course is fine, one of the best in the region, but the staff are useless. Bag drop guy said he would put our clubs on the cart, but walked away after taking away just one of two. Starter didn't have a record of our tee time. We showed him our online confirmation, and after an awkward discussion he told us to go to the 1st tee. He drove up to the tee 10 minutes later to tell us we hadn't checked in. He told us a visit to the pro shop was required. The pro shop said that since we had a valid confirmation we could play, but would have to pay them in addition to the Hot Deal payment we made to Golf Now. After an argument, they backed off on the "double" payment, and directed us to go back to the tee. When we got to the tee, the group in front was just walking off, so I sat down on the tee to meditate - clear my mind of anguish. The starter came back again, and drove RIGHT UP ONTO THE TEE to ask if I was meditating. I said yes, could leave me alone. He continued - he needed to tell me it was Golf Now's fault. I told him I didn't really care who's fault it was - I just needed a quiet moment - would he please leave me alone. When I asked a third time, he drove away.
What a way to start a round!
p.s. Even with a Marshal it was still a 5 1/2 hour round.
Greens at Renton - Blue Nine
Played On 10/21/2017nice couese
Nice course. A bit slow on the first nine. but the starter switched our back nine, and (thank you) the second nine was much better. Very nice course, a 4/5.
Grand Niagara Golf Club - The Rees Jones Course
Played On 09/23/2017Flawless
As good as any course I've ever played. Flawless in every respect.
Seneca Hickory Stick Golf Course
Played On 08/30/2017Thrilled
This course was highly rated, so I had high expectations, It exceeded expectations! From the greeting in the parking lot to the cart return. The conditioning, the layout, the challenge (tough, but very fair) I liked this course a lot. If it had a view of the Falls, or Lake Ontario, or something like that, it would easily make the Golf Magazine top 100 in America list. Can't wait to play it again!
Mount Elgin Golf Club
Played On 07/26/2017Very nice
Very nice, picturesque course, in great shape. Very playable. My only negative is the design of the greens. They are very small, severely sloped to the edges, and almost always away from the pin. Landing shy of the flag, the ball comes back and off. Landing long, the ball kicks forward and off. Pinehurst-like.
Bridgewater Country Club
Played On 08/06/2016Great Small Town Country Club
Very nice, easy to play track. Given the drought-like summer, it's in great shape. Quick, but true greens.
Hawk Ridge Golf and Country Club - Meadow Nest
Played On 08/05/2016Awesome Experience
This course is worth the drive and offers a great golf experience. The course and the conditions are excellent, but it's the staff that is as good as any I have encountered in 40 years of golf: public or private. Cathy, the starter is a true pro! Very friendly, very organised, and totally aware of who's on the course and where. We felt like the King and Queen of Sheeba! What a great day.
Dunnville Golf and Country Club
Played On 06/12/2016At $11.99 (including cart) you get what you pay for
The golf experience starts when you arrive. The pro shop is closed. A taped up sign says "Go to the cook in the kitchen to get a key for your cart". Seriously? Yes.
We're 20 minutes early. The cook can't answer questions, " I don't have anything to do with the golf" she says, but she directs us to some guy in jeans and a T shirt on the patio who appears to be in charge. He allows that we can tee off a whopping 20 minutes early.
No one tees off for at least an hour after us..
Royal Niagara Golf Club - Escarpment Course
Played On 11/07/2015Amazing Golf in November
We have wanted to play this course for some time and it just hadn't worked out. We played on a cool, crisp Saturday in November (unbelievable that we could still get out then) and the course, while being prepared for closing, was in good shape. The greens had been aerated, and we were warned, so it was all good. Staff were very, very friendly and we will definitely plan on playing again next year when the course is in tip-top shape.
Mystic Golf Club
Played On 11/02/2015Avoid the Pro Shop
Due to frost, tee times were backed up. When we arrived for a 12:36 tee time, we were told that we would be delayed 1 - 1 1/2 hours by the pro shop. They handed us the cart key then took it back, saying they would give it to us closer to when we could go out. When we got the key at 12:45 we asked how long it would be before we went out and the pro shop personnel couldn't tell us - asked us to check with the starter. Shouldn't they be communicating? When we got to the starter, we were told we were up and that was 1:00 - a far cry from the delay we were told to expect. Unfortunately, the personnel in the pro shop showed a "condescending attitude" from the minute we walked in, including assuming we knew that they had a frost delay. How could we know that? There was no frost in our home location. Unfortunately, the way we were treated at the pro shop will definitely impact our return to this course, as well as making our round less enjoyable than it could have been. And the club only has portable toilets at the pro shop - one for men and one for women!
Whirlpool Golf Course
Played On 06/30/2014Good Value
We went out as a twosome and seldom saw the people in front of or behind us. Course was in good condition. It was a very hot, humid day and we were very glad we were riding! Overall experience was very good, and we'll be back to challenge Whirlpool again.
