Heading down there next weekend for about 5 days. Does anyone have any golf course recommendations???

I had the pleasure of playing this course with my father-in-law a few weeks back, it's located just off Highway 115 about 15 mins. from Peterborough. The course is only 2 years old but the conditions were amazing. Very lush rough, beautiful fairways and the greens were nice also, although a few...

I've only been on three golf holidays so my experience is limited. I was in BC, which was amazing, PEI, which was incredible and Myrtle Beach, where I thought I'd died and gone to heaven. I'd love to hear what other great destinations are out there. Maybe find a "hidden Gem"

Well I can now say I have played golf in every month of the year in Southern Ontario. Played 9 holes today at a course in London. Nothing special but it was golf!
