Trying to find out locations to spend winter next year in southern Alabama, southern Georgia or N Florida which has a variety of golf course in the area. Any suggestions. Thanks :cool

I'm heading down to Hilton Head Island at the end of Feb with the gf to play some golf and I'm looking for golf only packages. Any suggestions? Right now the best I found is a 5 round package at any of these courses, Port Royal, Shipyard, Oyster Reef or Palmetto Hall Golf Clubs, for $240, taxes...

Hey Guys/gals... Has anyone heard of the London Golf Club? Apparently it's a members club where you can benefit by paying 50% of a normal course fee playing at a number of different corses. Can any members out there provide some feedback on their experience(s)? Thanks :)

Anybody book with " I Travel 2000 Direct" ? The latest word according to the insurance company---Ontario and Quebec get their vacations for free. :) Official announcement Wednesday am.

Just wondering if anyone out there has any reliable info on monthly rentals or who to contact. I have checked a lot of websites but they are mainly the larger operations that want to sell complete packages including the shoe shine. We can do that. We are looking for a clean 1 bedroom efficiency...

since I am currently staying at this resort and there are 3 magnificent courses but they are all covered in snow. One of these is hosting the 2008 US Senior Men's Open. It is also where Jack won his first US Amateur in 1959. http://www.broadmoor.com/luxury-golf-resorts.php you wouldn't...

I’m planning to drive down with my family (3 kids + wife) for March Break. My plan was to rent a villa for a week. Golf early mornings and rest/play with my kids.<o:p></o:p> I would appreciate any idea, tips, coupons, golf passports, warnings, etc.<o:p></o:p>

So thinking of going somewhere for Feb and March. Any ideas of places near a grocery store whre you can rent a villa for 2 months for ~1,000 a month. Groceries important as I don't want to rent a car. Also if the compound is near an ocean that's a +. I'm willing to fly anywhere, I'm crazy like...

I just got back from the island and despite my slightly increased waistline, I have to say it was definitely a great trip. I'm sure the weather wasn't the best it could have been, but I only had to contend with one day of rain (Tuesday) and that was the day we took off for Charlottetown to take in...

We had the pleasure of playing Batteaux Creek on Saturday and all I can say is wow! This course is 10 min south of Collingwood near Blue Mountain. Despite it being 8 deg when we teed off, with a good wind and some sideways rain, I would have to say that this course is an absolute treat to play....

Just got back from Myrtle Beach. Played the following courses: Sea Trail - Jones Course Oyster Bay Indigo Creek Tidewater Meadowlands Shaftesbury GlenAll were in very good shape considering overseeding has started. A couple of the courses were CPO due to the oversedding, but the greens...

Thank you all for registering. We are more than delighted to have you here. You may not have noticed that we have another front door to this site. That is... other than OttawaGolf.com. www.toronto-golf.ca or directly to the forum at forum.toronto-golf.ca If you use these urls when you...

I will be going to the Dominican Republic over the holidays and my hotel has a deal for 4 free rounds at La Cocotal golf. I have searched this site and the only thing I see is that the course is neither long, nor anything to write home about. I have also looked at their web site. But I was...

I am moving to Hamilton in May and am looking for a good course to become a member of. I will still be an intermediate golfer and want a nice course but can't afford more than $1300 plus bar tab. Ideally i am looking for a course about 7,000 from the tips with rating of 127/72. Let me know of any...

Any good indoor ranges that anyone knows about in the Hamilton area? I know there is a Sports Dome in Oakville, but the range isn't open for golf on the weekend. Anywhere else? How about any outdoor ranges? Any open this time of year?

hi There anybody can recommend an indoor place to practice in the winter in the Mississauga area thanks in advance Luis

Going to the Palo Alto/San Jose area later on this month. Any suggestions for courses that are good deals? Preferably less than $80 pp. Thanks

Hi Anyone been here and know the area and golf courses. Heading down in Mar for a month. Any suggestions would be appriciated. Thanks

Hey there, Heading down to Palm Springs the week of November 10-17. We have a few rounds booked at soem of the more $$$ courses, but I am looking to see if anyone can recommend some cheap courses that are alright to fill in the days with. Prefer something that is under $100 at least. ...

If anyone is looking for a golf holiday in the fall a trip down to SW Ontario would fit the bill. There are many many topnotch courses and all reasonably priced. The Niagara Wine festival in on now and Octoberfest is just starting. They are about 2 weeks behind us with the leaves and travel...

The St Thomas Times Journal as a coupon in todays paper (Friday July 13) for a Two For One at Tarandowah.

Four of us ventured over to Tarandowah Golf Club today to see what the hype was all about with this new course. The front 9 opened earlier this month so it now plays as 18 holes. First off let me say this course has some damn tough holes on it. From the tips it plays 7067 yards. From the Blues,...

Has anyone played the Lake course and the Old course at 1000 Islands. I just checked out their fall specials---not a bad deal--overnight 2rds w cart and dinner 129.00. What is the accomadation like and quality of the courses. Any info would be apprec. :)

Hi! I would like to know about the 18 holes of the Rouken Glen golf course in <st1:City w:st="on"><st1:place w:st="on">Glasgow</st1:place></st1:City>. I am going for an official visit in <st1:City w:st="on"><st1:place w:st="on">Glasgow</st1:place></st1:City> and would be playing golf at the...

A friend of mine played this course last month. He told me it was so foggy he could not see 30 yards off the tees on the front nine. The caddie guided him of the tee and on second shots. He played the course from the tips, 7212 yards, in fog and rain and strong winds and shot an impressive 77....

Anyone that hasn't been to Firerock yet this year is seriously missing out. The course is in immaculate condition. Aside from a couple non-descript holes on the front side, this course is a gem. It blows Forest City National out of the water in the high end public course category here in London....

OK, I'm on Day 6 of the PEI trip so I thought that I'd give a quick up-date on how its going..... Day 1 - Played Summerside G&CC and shot a PB of 85. The course is in very good condition and it certainly isn't the same course that I grew up playing. Day 2 - Played Mill River GC (my favorite...

For the entire month of May my wife, kids and I were in Iran staying with the outlaws. I decided to take my clubs and ended up playing a few rounds at a local course in North Tehran. I found out the course had been designed by Arnold Palmer. But unfortunately 6 of the holes were razed to make...

I just thought I'd give you all a heads up. Stopped by the store today after playing Thames and they've reduced their entire inventory 20%. I grabbed a Vokey Spin Milled wedge for less than $130. No clue how long this will last, but definately worth the trip.

Have any of you played the Lake St. Joseph course in Muskoka? I'll be playing it on the weekend and would like to have some idea what it's like. Thanks for the help.

any recommendations on a good (not to expensive) course to play in toronto or on the way back to kingston, gotta drop the wife off at the airport saturday morning, figure might as well try somewhere new while i'm up there. anyone need a forth?

I'm planning a trip to Myrtle Beach at the end of August with the family and hope to get a few ( 2 to 4 ) rounds in. 1) I'm looking for the best method of getting the lowest possible prices. There seem to be many on-line booking sites, calling the courses directly, going through an agency, etc…...

Hi All I'm going to Boston tomorrow for four days and I'm looking for some decent courses to play. Any ideas?? Nothing too expensive unless it's amazing. Thanks Jeff

hey guys it seems alot of London courses are putting out some super deals, I thought maybe we could get a list going, Forest city is $45 tax incl. Mon - Thurs all day Oxbow is $15, not sure of the times fanshawe and river road are twilight rate all day Thursday

So, a few months ago, somebody had posted a nice story about being invited to play at Bethpage Black near NYC. Alot of people were jealous and some people, including myself, starting chatting about going there for a weekend road trip this summer. Of course, I would have to clear it with the...

Just wanted to see if anyone on here has played Bigwin Island, if you have what did you think of the course and the club? I have played there and it has some amazing views and tough holes. J.O.T

I spent Canada Day weekend playing Pebble Beach, Spyglass, and Spanish Bay. Here are some pics. It is certainly a weekend of golf I will remember forever. The weather was sunny everyday I played, which apparently is not normal. The day I arrived golf was played in fog on several of the holes. It is...

I haven't played Forest City National in about 4 years. Is it as good as it used to be? (my favourite in London). They also used to have a spring special ($50 with cart). Does anyone know what the spring special is now? Thanks.

Hi. I'm going to PEI in July for a family vacation. Have convinced the wife to let me bring the clubs and I can head out for 1 round while we're there. So if you could only play 1 course in PEI what would it be? BTW, I'm staying near Brackley Beach. Thanks in advance for your...

I just thought I would share a few expereinces with everyone on the forum about my trip up North. I was able to play some of the best courses in Northern Ontario on my trip. It started with a round at Osprey Links in North Bay. A nice course with two very distinct nines. The front nine is a links...
