Course Planning Tips

  1. Booking windows

    Book Signature Rounds Early

    Reserve tee times well in advance, especially at Humber Valley Resort and The Wilds Resort, to secure preferred tee times during peak season.

    Pace Yourself on Challenging Courses

    Follow a demanding round at Humber Valley Resort with a more relaxed day at The Willows at Holyrood or Pitcher's Pond to maintain energy.

    Pair Coastal and Inland Courses

    Combine wind-exposed links like Harmon Seaside Links with sheltered inland courses such as Gander Golf Club to vary playing conditions.

    Schedule Practice Rounds Where Possible

    Use less busy courses like Tamarack Golf Club or Pippy Park - Admiral's Green for warm-up rounds to acclimate to local conditions.

    Expect gusty conditions on coastal and elevated courses; bring suitable gear and adapt your shot strategy accordingly.
