Lacking maintenance and water

This course has dried up badly since I last played in June. Tee boxes are bare dirt, fairways and rough equally dry and dusty, and even the greens are suffering, being generally bumpy and very slow. It is otherwise a nice layout and the best value in the Ottawa area. I look forward to playing in the Fall when Nature improves conditions.

Surprising gem

This parkland course is surprisingly challenging despite its short (5278m off back tees) length. Well placed hazards make club selection and accuracy off most tees essential. Plenty of elevation changes introduce adjustments to approach shots as well as Par 3 tee-offs. Speedy greens made putting tricky particularly on downhill sliders. Pace of play was excellent, a foursome ahead allowed me through and although playing alone I did not catch the threesome in front over 15 holes. Very walkable, although quite a long distance to and from the back 9 to the clubhouse.. I anticipate scoring better when I play here again, very soon. Great value.

Strategic layout

We played this open parklands course for the first time. The fairways are generous for the most part, although hazards are placed well to make most shots require a decision on the risk versus reward. The setting adjacent to Gatineau Park is peaceful. The afternoon was busy and a group ahead were holding up play such that there were often two on the fairway and two groups waiting at the tee box. With all groups in carts pace of play otherwise would have been good. Staff were helpful and gave rain checks when a downpour hit. Service was provided fluently in French and English. Enjoyable outing. Greens had just been cored so should be smoother in the coming weeks.
