If you love strategic golf and aren't afraid of a little wind, this course is for you. The par-3 14th, with its elevated tee shot over a natural ravine, is a real beauty and a test of nerve. You'll need to think your way around, not just bomb it.
Is The Links At Penn Hills a good value compared to other top Canadian courses?

After your round, head straight to the clubhouse patio. The views over the 18th green are fantastic, and their local craft beer selection is always solid. It's the perfect spot to dissect your round and enjoy the Canadian scenery.
