The course has consistently ranked among Canada’s top golf courses and reflects the influence of Nicol and Stanley Thompson, together with subsequent improvements and investment.
The modern clubhouse, rebuilt in 2002, offers dining overlooking the fourth hole, the Grand River, and the surrounding conservation area. Its outdoor patio is a focal point of the summer dining experience. The Club also has a distinguished history of junior-golfer development and championship golf, with PGA and LPGA Tour members David Hearn and Alena Sharp having represented the Club.
The Club is considering the future use of its former curling space as part of a broader opportunity to expand year-round amenities, events, and engagement. The next General Manager / Chief Operating Officer (“GM/COO”) will help the Board and membership evaluate opportunities that strengthen member value while protecting the Club’s financial health and established golf experience.
