Golf

The staff is really friendly and it's a great place to practice.

EXCELLENT accomadations River house always beautiful

What a fantastic little executive course. Played an 18 here on a Tuesday night. Had an absolute blast and was really surprised at how well maintained everything was. Look no further for fun, cheap, short, beginner friendly golf!

Great idea and excellent service !

With the 7 day advance booking and being able to book for friends, it feels impossible to play some courses. These spots are taken fast most days of them being available. The membership itself is a great idea and the savings is ok. There customer service is very good. Unfortunate some can take real advantage of the system.

Curling rink is very nice

Enjoyable course to play. Well maintained with nice scenic views.

Played a very enjoyable round today. Staff were all great from the coffee shop, to the Pro Shop and all the grounds people on the course. Members in front and behind us were welcoming and friendly. Course is in great shape. Very fair, but deceptively challenging. Would definitely play again.

Great short course. Really helps with my chipping

We decided to try and support Canada's golf courses rather than going to the states to golf ( lucky enough to enjoy a multipal golf trips a year). The decision was to go to Forest Golf Club and do the stay and play package; there was four couples this past Sunday September 3-4. I first arrived at the check in counter and two ladies were sitting down behind the counter aware I was standing there. I commented who I needed to see and each looked at the other than one said she would look after me with no hello-smile or even a little bit of warmth. The rooms even though dated are VERY clean and comfortable. We proceeded to go to the pro shop and check in--this time a young gentleman was sitting behind the counter and was not interested at all nor was friendly or even a thank you??? The course was in fair shape and even though the yardage is short the holes were challenging. We played eighteen holes and never saw the bar cart that we were informed would come around a couple of times. Note: number nine tee and ten are not near the club house which we discovered. We finished the round and again the course is fair and can be fun when playing in a group. Dinner time and it was included in the package along with breakfast. The server was very friendly and certainly genuinely happy to be at work. We all commented on how she made it a very positive experience. The food was a different story--steaks so well done that it was difficult to even cut -- the veg was over steamed and when you picked the asparagus up with the fork it came apart aling with the potatoes being rotten. Next morning breakfast and a different server was certianly not a happy person. My omelette was not completely cooked but she never came out to ask how anything was for us...only real comment came when we paid the bills for the coffee at $5 and gave her $20 asking for only $10 back. The server had no change and a couple of times looking at us and loudly asking if another server had change because we did not have it. Onto the second round and the gentleman at the club house was older--friendly and appreciated our business. Again no bar cart which makes it difficult to support the course even with the threatening letter about being ejected from the course if you are found with alcohol. I do not disagree with this policy and support it but really---18 holes and no means of getting a drink??? We decided to stay for lunch and again the same server from breakfast came over with no smile...manage to get our drinks and lunch ordered. The drinks came out and another server brought our food. I ordered the meatball sandwich which appeared to be a greasy burger pattie cut in have and served on the rye bread which was soggy because of the grease. The server never came back for more drink orders as we all sat in front of empty glasses or ask about our food. Plates sat in front of us and she approached the table with a our bills and said you can hand them out to me???No thanks....did you enjoy your stay...even have a nice day??? Also note we went passed the front desk several times and just once one of the many people there said hello to us. Customer service except for two staff was not at an acceptable appreciative level. Golf North which we appreciate the original philosophy has during the past couple of years failed in a few of their courses with customer service and food quality; sad because we golf numerous times at some of their locations but recently have started to search for different courses. I am embarrassed that we organize this event for the group and was assured they would no be back? Jeff

Great place to golf

Very nice! We went with the family on a Civic Monday holiday and it was nice and quiet. We Will go back again

Very nice course with big trees between fairways and decent greens. Lots of shade to keep cool.

Played here for the first time this past weekend. Fought traffic to get here from Toronto, and missed our tee time, but the staff were incredibly accommodating, and were able to fit us back into the tee schedule. The course is challenging, and utilizes a driver off of most tees. Pace of play was excellent, and they seem to have the tee times spaced appropriately. Not once did I feel our group was being pushed, or were we waiting for the group ahead to clear. Overall an excellent course in the Guelph area, and one I would happily go to again.

This should not be advertised as a golf course. At best it is ok for target practice, but as other reviewers have stated, the greens are not greens, they are just small circles cut into the fairway grass. Think of this as a practice range with more walking involved. If your local practice range is closer, save your gas and go there instead.

Well maintained and run course. Has been one of our favorites to play, never disappoints!
