Still the best Public Course in the region!

Course was in excellent condition as always! It is alway a treat to play here as the staff is very friendly and professional from arrival until completion of the round. This is a course that will test all of your shots , especially in the afternoon when the wind usually picks up. Look forward to returning soon.

Always in great shape

The course is in great shape , wish I had known that they had a member event as I was a single in a Hot Deal due to the other three golfers cancelling out. My only pet peeve with GolfNow VIP members and it is really starting to tick me off.. This has been ongoing this year , if you have no intention or may not want to play then don't book the Hot Deals , leave them for the golfers like myself that will actually show up. This is in no way intended for Cardinal Lakes as they run a great golf club and this is beyond their control. Golf Now wake up there are only a limited number of hot deals for these golf courses! I will be renewing my course membership next year and no more Golf Now.

Fun course to play

I played here regularly when the course first opened and was just 9 holes , this was where I learned to play. I enjoyed playing here again after not having been here for almost 12 years. Nothing really special just fun to get out and enjoy walking and hitting some balls on a nice summer day .

Even though it was still fair wet this time of year it was still great to get out and play one of the best courses in the area. Great friendly staff and challenging layout. You won't be disappointed if you like to play a variety of hole layouts.

Another Great Niagara Course

In all fairness being late fall and having heavy rains the day before playing I would still say it was a fun round. Always a pleasure to be able to play a Legends course.

A Must PLay

I had played this course in the past , and it is still one of the most challenging courses I have played. Good shot making and club selection are a must as well you will need almost every club in your bag.Course in in excellent shape , bunkers could use some attention though.

Needs some TLC

I have played here many times and teh course condition is gradually deteriorating . Greens were choppy and slow looked like they needed some overdue maintenance. Keeping in mind they have been like that for all 3 rounds I have played this year in the spring , mid summer and later in the summer. The biggest problem on this course is the pace of play due to iconsiderate people who only care about themselves and have no clue about golf etiquette.Stopping on every green to take selfies and group photos , and then putting at leats 4 balls each into a creek before giving up and moving on. The back nine should not take 3 hours to play.They need a Marshall as this is the main reason I will not return and will definitly not recommend the course.

Great Course, poor customer service

Booked through Golf Now, arrived at course early to find that our tee time delayed due to 3 tournaments booked plus other paid tee times. Had we known this we would have booked elsewhere. Golf Now can post aeration warning , why not warnings about large or multiple tournaments.

Challenging to all levels of skill

I have played here numerous times in the last few years , and the course seems to get better everytime I play. Well bunkered and tree lined to make shot placement and course management key in the way that you approach each hole. Well manicured fairways, fast greens and well maintained bunkers. A must play if you get the opportunity!

Best Course in the Region

A truly challenging course, makes you play a thinking game rather than just trying to bomb your way through 18 holes.Well bunkered and lots of water hazards. I will definitely return.

Always Enjoy Playing This Course

The course is always in top shape,considering the time of year and the amount of rain we received the course was in great shape. I enjoy the challenges that the course presents, dog legs, lots of trees and some water hazzards and great greens . You really get to use most clubs in the bag.I always enjoy playing here , no issues to speak of.

Going Downhill

I have been playing these courses off an on for close to 30 years , in the last few years the new course has been in steady decline. The clubhouse staff is rude and last time I went I was booked with Golf Now and when I went to check in I was told that there was no tee time booked for me and that I would have to take it up with Golf Now. After looking at his computer monitor I noticed he was looking at the wrong date, he couldn't have cared less.
The course seems to me like it is trying to portray itself as a high end country club. Wake up there is nothing special about this golf course . Years ago it was in great shape and had a very friendly staff.Keep it up and I certainly won't be returning , there are alot of better courses out there and let's face it we are the ones that support your golf course.
