Now this is a sweet deal

Nothing says exclusive like having to take the Valet boat service in order to get to and from the island.

Nice looking course there.

"Canada's most unique golf experience"

Sorry, couldn't ever go. If I need to ride there in a boat, and the employees can't pay enough attention to use decent grammar on their freaking advertising, I'm not trusting my life to any of them.

I know that sounds silly, and is no way relevant to golf, but that's one of my pet peeves that drives me up the freaking wall.

Did the "uni" out front not give you a clue? Is there ONE of them, or are there more?

Nothing that is "unique" is any more or less "unique" than any other. It's kind of the definition of the word. Using a qualifier with "unique" is ALWAYS grammatically incorrect. Always has been.


Sorry for the hijack....had to vent. But when somebody leads their advertising with it...**click**.

Heh, no it's a legit deal Todd. I've already contacted them and there's no catch to it other than the tee times available to public play are restricted.
Public play is available Monday to Friday after 10:00am and Weekends May, June, September and October after 2:00pm.

The food's not cheap but from what I've heard others say that have eaten there, it's worth it and everything else is included in that deal.

I'll take the digital with me when I go and post some pics. I'm just waiting to hear back from my golfing bud on when he's allowed out before I reserve my tee time there.
Someone's wife didn't appreciate his not coming home after being gone all day golfing and then spending the night drinking and spending mucho $$ watching peelers.
And forgetting/too drunk to call...

Played this today...

Awesome course, everything was top notch except for the weather which unfortunately kept the carts confined to pathways only and the range closed this morning due to the heavy rain they'd had over night.

















Lots of deer roaming the course and apparently not a bit scared of golfers or carts.
The greens weren't exactly slow even with the wet conditions and they've got hidden undulations in them like you wouldn't believe. One putt for birdie I looked at from 4 different ways and each way showed me a different break to it..
3 putts later... :mad:
I'm going to play this course again next summer.. when it's warm and dry.
Oh and yes, we played it from the back tees. Like all good golfers should.
