Golf Dorval
Played On 07/29/2017Stay away even if it's free
There is no other way to put it, stay away, this is simply a horrible golf course. Terrible layout, slow pace of play, burnt fairways. 7 holes had ``no conditions``. A real cow pasture. Restaurant closed on a saturday morning. No marshall. All this and even more for the incredible high price of $149.00 cart included for 2 players. I would not pay more than $80 for 2 people cart included under these conditions. A must avoid golf course. For a few dollars more and a few minutes further, play Atlantide, Falcon or St Raphael.
Club de Golf Rosemere
Played On 07/28/2017Great course, lots of fun
A beuatiful private course that accepts a limited amount of public golfers. Great lay out, not too tough, great conditions, beautiful greens, friendly staff. Special note to Francis at the starters box. Great person.
Morgado do Reguengo - Morgado Course
Played On 04/25/2017Beautiful course with huge greens
A fairly challenging course with ondulating faiways, elevated but huge greens. Nice sand traps, good layout. Somewhat easy to walk. Back nine is tougher and hilly whereas front nine is flatter. Long course. 600 from whites, 6700 from tips. Rolling fairways help getting on in regulation. One of the better courses in the Algarve.
Morgado do Reguengo - Alamos Course
Played On 04/23/2017An average course with a nice layout
Not a bad course. Conditions were good, greens are huge but not great. Made réservations for a group and asked to prepay buggys. We were told that buggys had to be paid on site. When we got there, there was an over booking on buggys so none were available. Had to walk the course. Somewhat hilly lots of ups and downs. I can't walk 9 holes needless to say, how I was after 18. This being said, I managed to pull off 3 birdies, no doubles and shot 75. Mixed feelings I guess. Shot 40 on front and 35 on back.
Salgados Golf Course
Played On 04/21/2017North American look in Europe
Not your typical European golf course. Very flat, lush faiways, fast and huge greens. Nice layout. When we played winds were up to 80kn hour. Had to club up at least 3 clubs to reach desired target. Also had to aim between 50 and 60 yards off target and Wind tok care of rest. nonetheless, still shot 87. Good day
Pestana Golf Resort - Gramacho Course
Played On 04/19/2017A must
Europe golf at its best. Lush fairways, tough greens, a more North American look than usual courses in the region. A must play. Great layout.
Pestana Golf Resort - Silves Course
Played On 04/17/2017When you need a break
Fairly easy course. Nice layout. Not as many elevated greens as other courses in Algarve. Greens were nice but very slow and inconsistent. Nonetheless, a fun day of golf. Tomorrow we play Gramacho which appears to be the Flagship of the Pestana golf chain.
Pestana Golf Resort - Vale da Pinta Course
Played On 04/15/2017a must play
An excellent course. This is Portugal golf at its best. Tough course, nice layout, elevated greens, hard greens to hold, play delicate shots and run up. Fast greens. I shot 85 and had 4 balls run off the green after landing pin high. Challenging yes but lots of fun. A must play.
Alto Golf & Country Club
Played On 04/13/2017Fun course in Algarve
A pleasant day of golf, excellent course for first round of the vacation. Good conditions, not too hard but fast ondulated greens make for a good challenge. Beware of downhill putts you may need a wedge to get back on. Nice traps. Clubs up on every approach to the green.
Le Golf Saint-Raphael - No.2 Course
Played On 08/10/2015Always in good shape
An beautiful course offering good conditions, large greens and well place bunkers. Many greens are hill top and well protected. An extra club is often required. Greens are fast but true and fair.
Le Manoir Richelieu Golf Club - Richelieu Course
Played On 08/02/2015One of Quebec's nicest golf experiences
Though it is 90 minutes from historical Quebec City, playing Le manoir is a must. This club offers 3, 9 hole courses. When booking players will be placed on either the Richelieu or Tadousac courses for 9 holes. All players get to play 9 holes on the St Laurent course. The latter oversees the St Lawrence Seaway and the view is simply magnificient. The first hole, a par 5 has an incredible view. If you can keep your mind on the golf and not the scenery, an easy par and maybe even a birdie awaits you. Do not let this fool you, greens are tough and undulating. Remember, regardless of the appearance, all putts break toward the water. I am a 6 handicap and a good putter but took 17 putts on this nine. I was Lucky to place a few, inches away on the back 9 wihch saved my game. Though it is pricy for that area, it is Worth every penny and the drive.
Club de Golf Sainte-Marie
Played On 08/01/2015Fun course to play
This is not a plush private course but the conditions are great. Fast greens, Rolling fairways, well situated traps. Many holes play much longer, up to 3 clubs due to elevations to the greens. Beware of the Wind or you will come up short.
Falcon Ridge Golf Club
Played On 04/25/2015Nice but needs more attention
Course layout is good but unfortunately conditions when I played it were not very good. Fairways were acceptable but greens were patchy, bumpy and hard to putt. Somewhat disappointed from time I played it when conditions were excellent.
Conestoga Golf Club
Played On 04/24/2015Great course
This is a really enjoyable course to play. Not as canyon like as most of the others but a real gem. Good fast greens, nice layout. Would definitely return
Wolf Creek Golf Club
Played On 04/22/2015Wolf Creek is exceptional
What else can be said. It is a breath taking course with excellent conditions, fast greensand white sand bunkers. Position is everything. A pricy course but worht being played. It is an exceptional golf experience.
Canyons at Oasis Golf Club
Played On 04/21/2015Tough first holes but worth it
First holes were tough. You need to really look at the course and place your shots. Accuracy is a must. After the first holes it is a little more fair but beware, it is a tricky course. Really enjoyed playing it. Conditions were great. Worth the price.
Casablanca Resort & Casino
Played On 04/20/2015A different pace
Not your usual course for the area. Relatively flat but with excellent layout and conditions. Greens were fast, in good shape and needed to be looked at from every side. A fun course to play and a good break from the canyon courses in the area.
Club de Golf Piedmont
Played On 09/07/2014Not worth the price not even with Canam golf
This is a mountain course and layout is nice but course was in terrible condition. Very slow greens, fairways not cut, lots of burnt patches of grass in the fairways. The rough was terribly cut and you can look for a ball for 5 minutes and you are only 1 foot away from the fairway. Very unpleasant to play. .
Club de Golf Blainvillier - Le Royal
Played On 09/03/2014This course is a beauty
If you are invited to this private course you must make sure you accept the invite. This 36 hole facility offers excellent conditions, a great layout and superb service. Club has tough, fast ondulating greens but true. Expect to add 12 to 15 strokes to your score. I am a 12 handicap and good with the flat stick but it took me the front nine to get a feeling. Nonetheless, a tremedous golf day.
The Lakes Barcelo Golf Course
Played On 08/13/2014Great course to play
The Lakes course at Bavaro Beach is a real gem. A typical Dye course with its ondulating greens, hidden bunkers and easy roll offs if you are not carefull. Not a long course but very tricky. Lots of water but does not really come into play. Watch out for the bunkers on 5 and good luck with #9. Overall a great place to play. Staff was wonderful. We had a staff member pick us up every morning with a cart at our room and drop us off after our game.
