What makes Whiskey Run stand out from other courses in the region? Are there any signature holes?

The course truly shines with its natural elevation changes and the way it weaves through mature Canadian forest. Keep an eye out for the par-3 14th; it's a stunning downhill shot over a ravine that demands precision and offers incredible views. It's a memorable challenge you'll want to play again.

Any practical tips for booking a tee time or making the most of a day at Whiskey Run?

Always book your tee time a week or two in advance, especially if you're aiming for a weekend morning.

Don't rush off - grab a local craft beer at the clubhouse after your round; it's a great way to cap the day.
