What to do and see in Ottawa, Canada: The Best Golf Courses

February 18, 2022 Esmeralda Fenner

Canada's capital is a compact, clean, cleverly planned center of culture and politics and a destination for every season. Start downtown at the architecturally stunning National Gallery of Canada, and don't miss the Canadian Museum of Nature and the Canada Aviation and Space Museum. Rideau Canal offers boating in the summer and turns into the world’s largest skating rink when frozen in the winter. Gatineau Park attracts cyclists and walkers, while Byward Market blends old and new Ottawa.

Richmond Centennial Golf Course

Reviewed By efitz1402 - Ottawa, Canada

I have golfed at Centennial multiple times in the past. It’s a beautiful golf course that is well maintained. The owners are very nice and sandwiches and drinks are available for purchase inside if you forgot to bring lunch. Many of the holes are parallel to each other so less experienced golfers may find themselves in other holes’ fairways, but it’s often not too busy so this is rarely a problem. The back nine have a lot of water hazards and are a lot narrower then the front nine. The course in general is quite forgiving. Just don’t forget the bug spray!

Planned my very first Employee Golf Tournament at Loch March Golf and Country Club. The professionalism and helpfulness of all staff was amazing and they made me look like I organized these events all the time! Even with the mistakes I made, their "we will work with it" and "can do" attitude allowed the day to go off without a hitch. It was a gorgeous day and the course was absolutely beautiful. The compliments are still rolling in from the employees about the fantastic time they had and how well everything was organized from the golf to the dinner! COVID measures were clearly marked and adhered to and everyone felt safe attending the event!! Thank you Danielle, Christian and staff.... you will definitely hear from us again next year.

We ( Legion Golf ) played the “Legacy “ course earlier today and it was anabsolute perfect round of golf. This was the first time for quite a few years our club has played this 18; while quite challenging with walks between holes rather long, we played a great round ; the layout , maintenance and condition of that part of Greensmere Golf & Country Club is of PGA quality. Well done , keep up the good work Otto

I play golf quite a bit, and this is the nicest course I have played. Yes, it is pricey. But after paying that price, you get exactly what you paid for. Friendly staff, top of the line service from the minute you arrive (they have a "valet style" bag drop off where they load your clubs onto golf cart and meet you at your parked car), great practice area, and an outstanding course. I also find it is not crowded (but I go early). Just all in all a great experience. If you are a golfer and you haven't been here... treat yourself. It's worth it.
