I played this course twice this week, and both times from the tips. I should play the whites so I found it long and some par fours were borderline unreachable but that’s my fault. The layout is good the greens are in good shape and raw true for the most part. Maybe one pot hit some longer grass and change course. Fairways were in great shape, it’s relatively open so hard to lose a ball. Pace of play was good. The marshals were good and the clubhouse staff was friendly. Two quibbles I have. One the cart girls on the first day I played kept driving by us without stopping. And the second day I just didn’t see them enough. The other quibble was the bunkers because they give you a rake in your cart but not everyone uses it or if they are walking they don’t have one. There are no rakes beside the bunkers. And the sand isn’t raked by the stuff in the morning so it’s packed hard if it’s rained, making it impossible to splash a bunker shot out. It was $105 with cart and included a bucket on the range. I’ll go back and I’ll bring friends. I’m uploading a picture of the island green pin where I landed. It’s a beautiful hole

Just a few ball marks. They used to give out ball mark repair tools to every golfer. No more, but
greens rolled true - 31 putts for me and maybe only 2-3 bounces combined from all of our foursomes putts.
Sand was well raked (and i got to hit out of it 13x!) Practice facility is included - lots of balls and a great sand bunker to drop balls into and practice from.
Reception of staff is good. Halfway house wasn’t quick but are they ever? Was a great day, great round and our playing partners were a pleasure (we just got paired up with them). Can’t wait to go back and i remember why this used to be one of my fave courses when i lived in Oakville.

Greens had many imperfections and lots of divot marks in fairways. That’s typical since we aren’t given sand to fill holes. Pretty open and hard to lose a ball. It’s a classic old style parkland course.
