BlackHorse Golf and Country Resort is a relative newcomer to the local golf scene, but it has already established itself as one of the must-play golf courses in Ontario. SCOREGolf magazine called BlackHorse one of the top new courses in Ontario and one of the best golf values in the province with $40 prime time green fees. And London Free Press golf writer John Herbert ranked it in 2007 as the #1 public course in southern Ontario and his all-time favourite. It also was judged to have the best greens. The 6,800-yard track east of Kincardine and west of Walkerton and Wingham has sensational bentgrass greens and tees, impeccably cared for fairways and a stunning layout. Two holes carved out of a former gravel pit are among the most spectacular, offering dramatic views and the challenge of playing around a 5-acre spring-fed lake. The course has six ponds, 50 bunkers and four sets of tees on every hole. BlackHorse is tucked away in a quiet rural setting, less than an hour's drive from London, Kitchener, Waterloo, Guelph and Owen Sound. Play it once and you'll understand why it's getting rave reviews. |
