Golf courses between Ottawa and Tremblant

[sparsons]

Myself and three friends are heading to Tremblant next Friday and what to golf on the way up. I have called a few courses and they are all booked either with tournaments or just busy. I have called the following courses Heritage, Montebello, Le Belle, Le Bete, Le Diable and Le Geant, all busy on June 9th. We are already booked to play Royal Laurentian on Saturday and Sunday, so we don't really want to play that course again on Friday. Are there any other courses on the Quebec side that are worth playing? Thanks,

Buckingham is not bad if memory serves (been many moons) and is not too far out of your way -- only about 10 minutes or so.

Another option is Carling Lake in Brownsburg near Lachute. A little more out of your way than Buckingham but I have a few friends who played it and loved it...

La Cite in Hawkesbury is a nice course. I know its not in Quebec, but there's a bridge to Quebec in Hawkesbury so it might be work for you.

Does Buckingham golf have a web site?

Arundel - best value around Tremblant - not the same quality as the courses you mentioned but it's a good bang for the buck & you'll probably be able to get a tee time.

I hear from friends that Lachute, 36 holes, right off the new part of Highway 50 in Lachute, is quite nice.
And reasonable.

I'll second the recommendation for Lachute. Both courses have very nice layouts. I haven't played in a while so I can't comment on recent conditions but in the past they were always well maintained.

If you want to take a little detour, the Falcon in Hudson is also pretty nice.

Try Gray rocks just before tremblant , very nice course , not a bad price, awesome setting.

Those would be La Belle and La Bete - the old Gray Rocks course and a newer course. He already tried those - booked solid.

Les quatre domaines , just off highway 15 / 50, isn't bad they have two courses there, its pretty close to Blainville. www.golflesquatredomaines.ca

If you do, play #2 - much better than #1

I'll second Shivas' recommendation of Arundel. Great little course!

Heritage or Montabello are both nice pitstops along the way.

I was able to book a round at La Belle. They must have had a cancellation. Thanks for all your suggestions. I was wondering if anybody knew of a web site that has a course layout for La Belle?

Anyone have any info on Montebello? I will be playing there on Saturday for my cousin's bachelor party. I was wondering if this was an ideal place for a bunch of bachelor party hackers who will probably show up in jeans. Any other course info would be appreciated. thanks.

hmmmm...it's part of the Chateau Montebello resort, fairly high end. I've never played it but I would imagine if you showed up in jeans it might be a problem..

Montebello does not allow jeans. Maybe give the course a call to verify but I wouldn't recommend showing up there in jeans.
Not really the ideal course for a bunch of hackers either, but I'm sure you'll have a blast.

Yeah, I've been reading up on it and it was rated higher than one of the Tremblant courses ( Le Geant or Le Diable) can't remember which one. So it has to be pretty damn good to be ranked in line with those courses. GPS carts and all. I'll tell everyone to dress with proper attire and I'm just gonna make sure I am part of the first group teeing off so the marshalls can yell at the hackers behind me holding up everyone else.
