Humber Valley Resort

Frequently Asked Questions

When is the absolute best time to play Humber Valley Resort for ideal conditions and fewer crowds?

We've found late June through early September offers the most reliable weather, with lush fairways and comfortable temperatures. If you can swing it, a weekday round in late August or early September often means a more relaxed pace and stunning fall foliage starting to peek through.

How challenging is Humber Valley for an average golfer, and what should I be prepared for?

Don't let the breathtaking views distract you - this course is a proper test, especially from the back tees. You'll encounter significant elevation changes and some tight landing areas, so bring your A-game and be ready to hit a variety of shots.

What's the signature hole or a particular stretch of holes at Humber Valley that truly stands out?

The back nine truly shines, particularly the stretch from holes 13 to 15, which offers incredible views of the Humber River valley. Hole 15, a dramatic par-3 dropping down to a green nestled by the river, is a definite highlight and a fantastic photo opportunity.

What's the typical cost expectation for a round at Humber Valley, and is it worth the price?

Expect green fees to be on par with other premium Canadian resort courses, generally in the $100-$150 CAD range, depending on the season and time of day. Given the immaculate conditions, stunning scenery, and memorable layout, we absolutely think it's worth every penny for a truly unique Canadian golf experience.

Beyond the golf, what practical advice do you have for making the most of a trip to Humber Valley Resort?

While the course is the main draw, plan to spend some time exploring the surrounding Newfoundland wilderness. We recommend booking your tee times well in advance, especially for weekend play, and don't forget to pack layers - the weather can change quickly in the valley.
