    Cobden on Monday---full tee-sheet---1 hour frost delay but right on time for 12:00 tee time. Greens were very slow but other than that no problem. 60.00 with cart and 4:15 round
    Does the 2nd hole-n-one come easier ?

    Cloverdale: Course was in average shape. The grass needs to be cut.
    Anderson: Course was in good shape. The greens rolled well after they dried up from the morning dew.
    Casselview: It's in amazing shape! The greens were quick, fairways were awesome, and the tee boxes are the best I've seen so far this season.
    White Sands: Course is in very good shape all around!

    Bearbrook: Played Monday. Two senior seniors walking in 3:45. For a course in this price range it was in reasonable shape and the greens were good but slow. First time I can remember the tenth hole being actually dry.

    I'll echo that Casselview is in fantastic shape. Marshals were terrible though.

    Casselview today---course only OK--seems like the cutting thing is contagious---not worth 77.00 and nobody there.

    eQuinelle this morning, course is in it's usual good shape but you knew that already.
    I got a fever. And the only prescription is more golf equipment.

    was it just my group or was bearbrook really hard to find your ball, even in some fairways too?

    Meadows last night, North course , fine & dandy , East had some badly damaged greens, which should have been fixed over the lockdown imo , but overall, decent
    At the end of the day ... It gets dark

    Pineview - May 26 - decent condition, dry, greens rolling ok.
    Loch March - May 24 - excellent shape. Greens great, great start to season.
    eQuinelle - May 28 - excellent shape as always. No fault of course but freezing cold at 730am.

    Played smugglers yesterday. Course is in great shape, greens rolling nicely and pace was solid, we finished in 4 hours on the nose.

    Anyone play Cedarview? Not really a “go to” course for me but friends of ours have booked for the weekend. So am curious. Anyone have input?

    Jasonreg....if you mean Cedarhill, I played it a couple days ago after work....greens are very good except for the par 3 9th...fairways and tee boxes are ok, grass is a bit long for my liking. You are correct that it isnt a "go to" course, but for a quick 18 after work it fits the bill. Great course to work on course management skills as a driver is not required on a few holes and greens are small that you have to be accurate with your short to mid irons. Lots of OB. Just over 6300 from the back tees. Course is actually fun to play as there is a mix of easy holes with a couple of big par 4 holes especially if it is windy...enjoy

    Hey everyone, probably a long shot here but I’m wondering if someone has an idea on what condition Montebello is in this year. I haven’t played it in at least 10 years and wouldn’t mind having another crack at it.

    Played Loch March today. Course is in excellent pristine shape. Greens are fast and the fairways are like carpet. Haven't seen the course in this great condition in a long time. Kudos to the course maintenance staff. The best part was that there were no mosquitos as I saw lots of dragonflies flying around!

    My all time favourite course

    Played on Wednesday, starting to dry out (fairways), it needs rain, and the greens are okay to good. There is construction on the main road heading to the course, so leave yourself a little extra time to get there.

    Any news on Greensmere? I'm playing Legacy on Wednesday. Generally a big fan of the 36, but Legacy wasn't at its best last fall.

    I played it yesterday and although I had heard the greens weren't in good shape, I thought they were fine. It's a great layout and the rough is well grown in and most lies in the fairways were good. Tee boxes were pretty flat and maintained. I would definitely go back.


    On another note I played Cartier and Champlain consecutive days a few weeks ago and in my view there was a significant difference in the quality of the courses with Champlain being in far better condition and particularly the greens.

    Sounds like it’s worth the trip! Thanks for the feedback

    I played Renfrew yesterday and it was in decent shape. The rough was starting to burn but otherwise it was decent---BUSY but a 4:15 round
