Inspired by Ireland’s Portmarnock Golf Club, the Heathlands course’s fescue-covered dunes, pot bunkers and severely-sloped greens pay homage to classic golf design with one of the truest tests in Ontario.

Opened in 1992, the Heathlands course harkens back to golf’s beginnings and the dune-swept hills of traditional Irish links. Once the carefully-guarded secret of local aficionados, the course has become a favourite of those seeking a traditional golf experience and a stirring challenge that pays homage to the simple-yet-brilliant creativity of classic golf design.

The course recently celebrated its 30th anniversary, representing decades of treasured memories and unforgettable rounds from those who now hold an affinity for Heathlands as one of Canada’s most classic golf experiences.


“The Heathlands course was the first on the property and Doug Carrick’s initial try at a links-style layout. He pulled it off brilliantly, and the course continues to hold up as one of the strongest tests in Canada.”
