Highlands Golf

Frequently Asked Questions

When is the absolute best time to play Highlands Golf, and what kind of weather should I expect?

We've found late June through early September offers the most reliable and pleasant conditions here. You'll typically enjoy warm, sunny days perfect for golf, though a light jacket for early mornings or evenings is always a smart move in the Canadian 'highlands'.

What makes Highlands Golf truly stand out from other courses in Canada?

It's the dramatic elevation changes and the breathtaking panoramic views of the surrounding Boreal forest and distant peaks that set Highlands apart. Every hole feels like a new vista, demanding thoughtful club selection to navigate the significant ups and downs.

Is Highlands Golf a course for all skill levels, or is it a real challenge for the average golfer?

Highlands offers a fantastic challenge, especially from the back tees, with its undulating fairways and well-protected greens. However, with multiple tee boxes, even higher handicappers can enjoy the stunning scenery and a fair round if they choose their tees wisely.

What's the typical cost for a round at Highlands, and is it worth the investment?

Expect green fees to be in the mid-to-high range for a premier Canadian course, often around $150-$250 CAD depending on the season and time of day. We firmly believe it's worth every penny for the unique experience, impeccable conditioning, and unforgettable views you'll encounter.

Beyond the golf itself, what's the one must-do experience or view at Highlands?

Don't rush off after your round- make sure to grab a drink on the clubhouse patio, especially around sunset. The view looking back over the 18th hole with the sun dipping behind the distant mountains is truly spectacular and the perfect way to cap off your day.
