Wonderfully maintained Golf course that cuts through Forest and Marshlands. Every hole is treelind or fescued so there isn’t a lot of room to spray.
It's always a great round. Challenging enough for the experienced golfer but forgiving enough for a beginner. Friendly staff and great food in the clubhouse.
Well maintained course. Considering it's one of PEI's non-waterfront courses, it's exceptionally pretty. Especially this time if year. Bugs can be thick in the summer, but bring your bug spray and this course is definitely worth putting on your list.
Played here recently and it was a nice round of golf at a fair price I just wish they had a replay rate so I could play there twice a day without feeling like I was overpaying. Most places I go to usually over a replay rate at the price of a power cart seat.
The course itself was in really good shape but a little damp in spots (it had rained a couple of days before (Ida was her name I believe) so that was understandable. Greens and fairways were in excellent condition; tee boxes were ample and provided plenty of room. I rarely complain that there is too much sand in a bunker but heir was at least one that felt more like a 'sandbox' than a bunker (18 fairway bunker sand was way too deep IMO). The course is a good challenge for all levels of golfers but could use another tee box setup between the White and Blue setup (maybe a combo Blue/White at approximately 6000yds would be a nice addition). The scorecard seemed very crowded and I rarely need my reading glasses to make out scorecard info this was not the case. A redesign might be in order; my playing partner also mentioned this without my prompting.
If you aren't sure you want to play here take my advice and play here at least once and enjoy the track. Price wise it is very affordable compared to the 'big guys' on the Island given the playing conditions. And 17 is really a fun hole to play!!
A fun, challenging Links-style course 15 minutes from our hotel in Montague, PE. It's a relatively short course, but is nicely balanced with some fairways being forgiving and others featuring sand at driving distances... it requires some thought, which is fun.
The greens were in really good shape and they're quite fast - my brother in law and I were fighting to get the feel of the pace of these greens all round ;)
What we found most impressive was the price for a round in peak season at peak time (9:30 tee off). Much more competitive than the Dundarave/Brudenell courses nearby, though in fairness they are a step up in terms of on site and course amenities. At the time of writing, we paid 72.50 (each) taxes-in for 18 holes and a cart.
Make no mistake, Avondale is a great golf course and visitors to the area should give it a swing.
