WHAT A MESS

The owners of this course should both be embarrassed and apologetic for the condition of this golf course. Very poor maintenance all over the course from little or no sand in the bunkers to very slow, uncut greens and most of the holes on the greens look like they haven't been changed for several days.. WHAT A MESS !
For the same money you can play a course that earns the right for you to play it like Legends or Thundering waters or Whirlpool.
This course doesn't cut grass like it should or rake the bunkers or cut the greens. I don't recommend this course and save your money and time and go play a decent course

Nice course! Bunkers are in need of some serious work. Staff was very accommodating. Pretty fun layout, but the course needs some love.

Great course and staff

we played the iron bridge 9 and the escarpment 9. The iron bridge was beautiful and tricky. The escarpment was wide open and long! It was a great mix four out 18 for the day. Staff was very friendly, knowledgeable and professional. I would definitely recommend this to any golfer looking a for a bit of a challenge and wanting to test his/her long ball

Laziness

I wish some of you lazy golfers would fix your dang ball mark's on the green, the greens would be in nicer shape if you did , it's like trying to get kids to clean ther room , really stop being lazy and help keep the course in good shape , iam sure the grounds crew would appreciate it .

Royal Niagara Golf Course Great Deal

The course was in good shape. Over the years they have allowed sand bunkers to become grass bunkers. Generally, the course was in great shape. Bunkers needed grooming however in fairness there had been a heavy rain the day before. Great value.

Casual Day out

How is this course “royal”? Tees and bunkers were terrible greens ok. Bit expensive for a hackers course. Some holes are are really good challenge and the layout is quite good, it’s just not maintained very well. Fortunately we played with a nice couple of lads who were chatty and friendly. Otherwise I won’t rush back. It’s convenient for the mall though.

the cashless system is not ideal. We got pulled from the back nine and told to restart on another nine because they booked a shotgun tourny and took to many tee times. restarting was fine but everyone was so it was a 6.5 hour round

BEAUTIFUL DAY FOR

This course is top-notch.. Very challenging at times. Pace of play was excellent-even though they had men's league & a group of 8. Lost a lot of balls because rough was longer than normal...The only problem...Where are the washrooms???
