Frequently Asked Questions

Is Norway Bay Golf Club still open for play?

Unfortunately, Norway Bay Golf Club is permanently closed. We saw its last season a few years back, and while it was a beloved local spot, the course is no longer maintained for golf. Don't plan your trip around playing here.

What kind of experience did Norway Bay Golf Club offer when it was active?

When it was open, Norway Bay was a charming, unpretentious nine-hole course, perfect for a relaxed afternoon round. You'd find a laid-back atmosphere and a few tricky par-3s that kept things interesting, especially with the Ottawa River breezes. It was never about championship golf, but pure enjoyment.

Since Norway Bay Golf Club is closed, what are the best nearby golf alternatives?

Absolutely, you'll still find good golf in the region. We recommend checking out Pine Lodge Golf & Country Club or Pontiac Golf Club, both offering a solid 18-hole experience within a reasonable drive. They provide a similar friendly vibe and well-kept fairways.

What has become of the land where Norway Bay Golf Club once stood?

The old course grounds have largely reverted to nature, and some areas have been redeveloped for other purposes. You won't find manicured greens or fairways anymore, but the scenic location near the Ottawa River remains beautiful for a walk. It's a quiet reminder of a past era.

Before its closure, was Norway Bay Golf Club a good option for beginners or family golf outings?

Definitely. Norway Bay was always a fantastic spot for beginners and families, thanks to its approachable nine-hole layout and relaxed pace. It was the kind of place where you could introduce someone to the game without feeling intimidated, making it a real community asset.
