You'll discover a fantastic variety, from challenging championship layouts like Deer Creek and Royal Ashburn to more relaxed, player-friendly tracks. Many courses are beautifully integrated into the rolling Ontario landscape, offering a classic parkland feel with mature trees and well-maintained greens that demand thoughtful play.

Green fees in Durham Region are generally quite reasonable, offering excellent value compared to some of the more high-profile golf meccas across Canada. You can expect to pay anywhere from $60-$120 CAD for a prime weekend round, with plenty of deals available for twilight or weekday play if you're flexible.

Are there any local highlights or hidden gems worth exploring off the course in Durham Region?

Absolutely, don't just stick to the fairways! We recommend checking out the charming town of Port Perry on Lake Scugog for a relaxed evening, or exploring the local craft breweries and farm-to-table restaurants that are popping up across the region. It's a great way to experience the local flavour after your round.
