Fanshawe Golf Course - Traditional

First time at the course and it was beautiful. Pretty challenging as I’m a newer golfer, but definitely worth the views on the course. Twilight golf, so pace was fantastic, but still difficult to complete 18 holes before sundown. Still managed to get through 17 so not terribly upset. I’ll definitely return.

Excellent condition for March. Lot of lower limbs trimmed, nice to see. Greens were better than I expected, beer was cold, company was good and the night was warm. Who could ask for more.

Good quality for early season on a municipal course. Not very wet and the greens were a decent speed. It won't blow you away but you won't be disappointed.

This course is getting A LOT of play. The whole course and around the green had trampled grass that was all swept towards the greens due to traffic. Around the greens and the greens themselves were concrete like.
Everything was pretty chewed up.

Greens need some work and the second cut could be a little shorter.

Every hole presents a big challenge if you are a 10+ handicap.Long par 4's and very challenging par 3's . Lot of dog leg holes. sand traps are placed fairly. Water not an issue.If temp is warm to hot-best take a cart.

do not worry about covid...
staffs are kindly guide the protocol^^

We arrived at the course to find out that they did not have power carts available for rent and that we would be required to walk. I have played well over 40 rounds this year and this is the first that I have come across this issue. The staff stated that the carts only go out twice and that there were two on the course that may be in but that they had no idea what group had them and what time they would be in. I was disappointed with the fact that a) they were short carts, and b) that the only potential two that they had, they had no idea when they would be in. I elected to use a free of charge pull cart for my round. When we were about to tee off of hole 1, the staff came out to tell us that a cart had just returned. I was appreciative and took the cart for the round. I just found it awful bad customer service to have no plan. Re the course, the greens were terribly maintained in comparison to the fairways.

I dealt with a very unpleasant gentleman. He will be one reason I will not being returning to the course. It’s unfortunate that staff members will be this reason, but there are plenty of courses in London with great staff.

I couldn't believe the condition of the course. After all this heat and the fairways and greens were in great shape. Greens were fast and you could take a divot in the fairways! Well done Fawshawe!!!!!!!!!

The weather was perfect and the course was challenging enough but our pace of play was slowed by the group in front of us. They would not let us play through because they said there was a group ahead of them - that group was over a hole in front. No one from the course keeping tabs on pace of play. Staff we interacted with at check-in were great and very cognizant of keeping physical distancing.

Sadly, the greens had just been aerated, so bumpy and sandy. The front 9 is shorter and generally straight forward, except for one 90 degree hole. The back is much tougher to walk and to play. The par 3s are 200 yds, which is out of reach for seniors and short-hitting women. It is a hilly course, which can be fatiguing. It is better to ride.
