Variety in terms of layout

Contrary to earlier in the season, the course was relatively dry making for much better playing conditions. However, the amount of falling leaves is starting to be a problem.

Revamped and improved

Having last played here a few years back I was struck at the site of what appeared to be a brand new course to me. My last recall was that of a very dry, hard-packed terrain and rough turf interaction. Not anymore. The fairways were green and well cut allowing for a clean ball strike. The approaches to the greens were much improved as were the latter. The wide variety of sloping grounds favoured a good test of one's striking capacity. All in all a pleasant experience.

Be sharp

This is a course where you have to be accurate given the abundance of bunkers and the intimidating water hazards. Long and straight shooters will do well. For others, beware. The large impeccable fairways are quite receptive and the fast multilevel greens test your putting. The greenery is spectacular.

A flat pack

The main appealing point of this course are the holes bordering the St. Lawrence River which make for a nice scenic outlook on their edges. You can't get a course much flatter than this, very suitable to walking.

Nice layout

The course offers interesting hazard placements that requires well placed shots from all angles. There are a few blind shots that could land one in bunkers. The variety of scenery is enjoyable.

Intriguing configuration

This is a lovely course that gives the appearance of being compact without overly long holes. It has amazing par 3s. Almost all greens slope downwards making putting a tricky thing.

Laidback course

There are many doglegs that test your accuracy. It is not a must to drive long, but good positioning is rewarded.

Calm rustic course

The layout is interesting meandering between multiple wetlands. There are uphill holes, especially the last one offering a dogright lane that finishes on a very steep uphill. The course presents well designed holes throughout.

Leisurely stroll around bunch of hazards

After a quiet front nine that is relatively calm one sets out onto a back nine that is alive with water hazards, large swaths of swampy terrain and plenty of trees that keeps you chasing after balls if not accurate in your play. Albeit a short course, it is a nice test for an average golfer.

This corse has many attractions

Tee off areas were very nice. The well groomed fairways were cut just right to facilitate club selection. Greens were extremely fast and provided one of the main challenges.The expansive fairways provided room to manoeuvre. Scattered mounds and hills added to the charm of the course.

This course is well doglegged

Several of the doglegs on this course force you to be accurate or trouble awaits. Fairways and greens were in very nice shape. In many cases hazards parallel fairways calling for careful consideration in shot selection.

Framed by water

The course was in nice shape. Well kept fairways and smooth rolling greens. Although not overly busy, I was forced to hop between holes to overcome backups.

The course has nice variety.

At this time of year the grounds were in splendid condition. The greens were nice and fast. The fairways had largely withstood the not inconsiderable precipitations we've had recently. It was a pleasure to navigate.

This course has a nice design.

Many great views on several holes. The bumpy, hilly terrain requires good shot positioning as there are many blind shots scattered all over. It is a difficult course for an average player and a worthy challenge.

The course is in wonderful shape.

With little traffic, the first nine went very fast. However, the second nine was played in heavy traffic with players criss-crossing holes at random causing some confusion. This does not deter from the beauty and quality of the course. The layout is very nice and the par 3's offer interesting challenges.

This course has a nice layout.

This was my first visit to this course. With its separate hitting stations for each hole, this makes it an original way to replay the9-hole course. The layout is interesting offering unique designs on a few par 4's that I have not encountered anywhere else. Approaches to greens require accuracy and provides ample opportunity to test one's wedges. An enjoyable round in a quiet surrounding.

The course was in very good shape

The fairways are very well delineated and are helpful in adjusting your alignment. The greens are beautiful and somewhat fast. This is a course that demands good shot placement as there are several hidden areas on approaches to greens. Very challenging for a high handicapper as the par 5's are fairly demanding.
