I was in La Jolla on vacation and I got snowed in (my flights back to Buffalo, NY were postponed for a few days due to weather back East) so I played an extra round of golf while in California. I am happy that I chose to play that round at San Vincente. The course was in great off-season shape with solid fairways and quick but true greens. The layout is challenging but fun and the pace of play was fantastic (3 hours and 25 minutes).

I highly recommend this course and will play here again every time I visit the area!

I love the Niagara Parks Golf Courses. I'd hazard to say that they may be some of the best Munis in the entire world.

I usually play Ussher's Creek and Whirlpool but decided to get back out on Battlefield after a few year hiatus from that course and I was not disappointed. The layout is wonderful and, in spite of our cold and wet Spring in the Buffalo/Niagara Region, the course is in amazing shape. The green rolled true and were fast but they held decent approach shots well. The fairways were great too.

We stopped for a quick bite afterward and watched folks struggle on Battlefield's 18th (a very challenging par 5 with water all over and the food and service were really great too.

Don't pass on Battlefield. Don't pass on Niagara Parks. If you are from outside the region, come here on vacation and be sure to get over to Buffalo too!

This course is great. It is in solid shape, the greens are true, and it is a challenge. Go play a Fall round at Whirlpool!

I had the pleasure of sneaking out for a round on a rare 74 degree day in the Niagara/Western New York region. Ussher's Creek did not disappoint. The course was in incredible late season shape and the greens were running near a 12 on the stimp so they were even more of a challenge than usual.

The level of service here is incredible and the golf course is everything that a golfer should look for in a course: it rewards good shots and punishes poor shots. It is a hard but fair test of your skills and you will need to hit every club in the bag at some point as you navigate around all 18 holes.

I can't wait to play it again!

I love this golf course. It is challenging but it rewards good shots while punishing bad ones. It is a great design and a great value. Niagara Parks may run the best Munis in the world with Whirlpool, Ussher's, and Battlefield.

In short, get here and play.

The folks at Niagara parks have done it again. In spite of our cold and wet Spring and early Summer, Ussher's creek was in peak form. The greens were quick and they held shots perfectly. The rough was up and the fairways were in great shape.

This is a tough course that rewards good shots and punishes badly executed ones. I love it and will continue to play at Ussher's regularly.

All three of the regulation Niagara Parks Golf Courses are excellent but Ussher's Creek is the crown jewel of them all. It is very challenging and it rewards good shots and punishes errant shots, sometimes severely.

The greens are in the best shape that they have ever been in and they were rolling at about a 12.5 on the Stimp today...fast and true are the words to describe them.

If you haven't played here yet, do so. It is wonderful.

I was in Cleveland for a few days visiting friends and I found out that we could play Metroparks courses designed by my two favorite course designers, Donald Ross and Stanley Thompson. I was ecstatic.
Sleepy Hollow, designed by Thompson, was excellent. The course rolls through the river valley and there really isn't a hole without some sort of elevation change. It was beautiful. It was hard. It was fair. Good shots were rewarded, bad shots punished, and if you tried a risk-reward and missed, you were punished severely.
This is an awesome course that is very well maintained and is a great value for the dollar. I will play here every time I visit Cleveland.

Ussher's Creek is a wonderful golf course. It is hard but fair and you get rewarded for well-played shots and punished for poorly placed ones. Green are at about 11 and are holding. Get out there and play!

This was my 8th round here this year. It is in amazing shape and is a great challenge for the money. Earn your shots here folks!

The Neuse is a wonderful golf course. It is challenging and the terrain and layout are very different from hole to hole. The course is very well-maintained and the greens are wonderful and true.

If I lived closer than 750 miles away I'd become a member and play here all of the time.

Get here now.

I booked a round at Reedy Creek on the recommendation of a friend who played High School Golf there a decade ago. I was expecting a nice and quaint country golf course for the money that I paid for the round. I got that and much, much more.

The course layout is fun and fairly challenging but it is open enough to not kill you. The fairways are wonderful and the greens are amazing and true. They held the ball but still were fast-the fastest greens that we played on my entire weekend vacation.

This course exceeded all of my expectations and I will be back to play the next time that I am visiting in Raleigh.

Peninsula Lakes is one of my favorite places to play. It fell off the map for me for a few years and I am very happy that we went back for a round last week. The course layout is amazing and challenging. Good shots are rewarded and bad ones are punished.
The greens are exceptional and true.

Get here as soon as you can and check out this gem in Niagara.

I love this golf course. It is my second favorite of the three excellent Niagara Parks courses (Ussher's Creek being the first) and it may be the hardest of the three.

It plays long, especially in the wind and it is a challenging layout. Hit fairways and you will be rewarded...miss them and be ready to make bogey or worse.

Greens are in good shape and the course is in the best overall shape that it has been in since Pierre Trudeau was PM of Canada!

Niagara Parks may very well run the three best Munis in the world. Amazing job here at Whirlpool folks and I can't wait to get back!

I don't know how the folks at Niagara parks do it but after a hard, hard winter that lasted into April, they have the courses in tip top shape.

Ussher's is my favorite of the three Niagara Parks Courses (Whirlpool is the Second and Battlefield the Third...all are excellent and great tests of golf) and it did not disappoint.

This course is challenging and well designed. If you hit good shots and don't get greedy you are rewarded. If you take risks and don't succeed or try to go on cruise control the course will eat you up quickly. It is a true test of golf.

Whirlpool Golf course is a challenging track. There are windows and holes that look easy on the card but then there are protected pins and protected greens to deal with. There are short par fives that are tight and long par fours (often back to back) that both demand precision with a tee shot and a wood or long iron to the green.

Over the last few years, Whirlpool seemed to have become the Cinderella to its two bigger and newer sisters, the great courses down the road on the other side of the Falls at Legends (Battlefield and Ussher's Creek). There was a tough winter a few years back that required severe maintenance to repair some greens that complicated this as well.
I am happy to say that the course is now completely recovered and that it is in absolutely wonderful shape.

Play here often whenever you are in the WNY Area or Niagara Region of Canada. It is worth the money and you will be challenged by the course.

The Hill Course was an excellent challenge. I have played the lower course before but this as my first time playing up top and it did not disappoint.

If you hit good shots you can score (if you are a decent putter). If you hit poor shots, you are punished...sometimes severely but fairly.

Get out here and play as soon as you can. Enjoy fall golf at its finest.

I love Hunter's Pointe. I rediscovered it this year and it is a wonderful layout and great value. The sad thing is that this might be the last season for this great course as the developer who just bought it is thinking of building houses on the course. Call and thell them to save the course!

This was the first time that I have played Hunter's Pointe in over a decade and I will be sure to go back. The course was in great shape even though the area had about three inches of rain in the few days prior to when we played. The greens were true and they still were quick.

This course is challenging. You must be able to work the ball both ways and place the ball in specific spots and at specific distances if you are going to score here. There are some forced carries and blind tee shots as well as some blind approaches. It isn't outrageously long but it is long where it needs to be and if you spray the ball, bring another few sleeves along for the trip!

Overall this course is s true test of links style golf. I can't wait to go back and play there again!

This is a fun golf course to play when visiting the Niagara region. It ranks up there with Legends, Whirlpool, and Peninsula Lakes as far as the golf experience is concerned.

Pros: The condition of the course was excellent; the greens were true in spite of the wet spring; the pace of play was solid.

Cons: The design of the course as a housing development makes some of the holes a bit gimmicky at times.

Overall, this is a good value for the money and it is a fun place with great views and some challenges.
