What People Say
Ayren Links Golf Club is appreciated for its affordable pricing and relaxed, family-friendly atmosphere, with a course layout that offers a variety of hole types and is suitable for practicing long drives. However, visitors frequently criticize the inconsistent maintenance of the course, with some fairways and greens in poor condition, and the early closing times that can disrupt play. While the staff generally receive positive feedback for their friendliness, interactions with the owner have been described as less than welcoming, particularly regarding pace of play for beginners.
Had fun playing here...It's pretty much on a farm and the fairways/rough are mowed at the same level (which i didn't like). It does have a good mix of par 3, 4, 5's and a couple tricky holes. Some of the ponds are dried up. 35 bucks to play with cart is a good price, not sure what weekend tee times cost. I will go back.
Course has seen better days and it’s not open very late anymore but still a great course to play with tough greens.. course in now sold so it won’t be around much longer, I was lucky to even be playing on it they weren’t suppose to open this year.. The staff and the owner and his family are incredible people !! They make the experience worth going. I wish them all the best moving forward into retirement!!
If you are new to the game or can't play speed golf, don't go here. I took my two teenage sons for their first time golfing. What a mistake that was. We let three groups pass us after five holes. Which is fine because I know we are moving slowly. On the sixth hole, the marshal said we were moving slowly and to let golfers pass, I explained to him we had been doing that, and I have two first-time golfers with me. The conversation was fine and civil. Fast forward to the seventh, the owner came to us and said, "What's with the slow play?". Again, I explained we have two new golfers with us. He th…
Owner is a rude man. Told us to leave after 9 , because the 2 minors out for their first time were too slow. We were 2 hours in at at 11:30 in the morning on the 7th fairway. Said the children were costing him money. His staff goes home at 2 and we wouldn't be finished by then. Way to go . Their first experience on a golf course is your despicable behavior. Safe to say if I could give this course a negative review, I would. Had to explain that the world is filled with money grubbing people. Dont judge other courses by this individual. Don't go to this course if you have young people. Clearly n…
Ayren links is a bit of a weird one. Please stop cheating on your taxes with "cash only" and instate some kind of online booking system. They like to close in the early afternoon... maybe pay someone an hourly wage to mind the till and keep half an eye on the course and parking lot, so your clientele can continue giving you money. Decent enough length, but driving your ball onto a concrete runway can literally add 40 more yards to your drive. This is a great course to break 100, or break 90, or break 85, or break 80, or whatever milestone you're chasing on. When it's a wet season, the gras…
Wicked fast golf carts. It has some great holes on the back nine. Wanted to see this legendary owner who everyone was complaining about. He seemed pretty normal to me; maybe I caught him on a bad day. Round only took 2 hours! This POP is a record for me in the GTA and doubt it will ever be matched, especially on a beautiful sunny day as it was today.
Ayren Links gets 4 stars because it isn't pretending to be something it isn't. Is the clubhouse derelict and was there a cat in the men's room? Yes indeed. Is the course layout a head scratcher at times? Sure is. Do fairways exist at Ayren Links? Nope. All of the grass is cut at the exact same length, akin to a suburban front lawn. Did we have fun? You bet. Because you pay $60 cash for a round and a cart and you don't ask questions. It is unabashedly not your rich uncle's country club, and those griping about it in Google clearly did not do their research.
The course is decent, you get what you pay for of course. Had fun playing with my foursome, a great beautiful Saturday afternoon....until, we got told we had to hurry up (it was 3 in the afternoon and the website showed closing time was 7pm). Note to owners/workers, if you want folks to hurry up, probably not gonna happen if you drive over and say things like you've been on the course for 4 hours...it made us all that much slower. If you don't want to stay past 3 on a beautiful sunny September day you might not want to own/run a gold course.
Fairly nice 18 hole course as far as scenery goes. Fairways and greens are usually in good condition. Good course to learn how to play golf. Owner likes to close early so don't expect to book a tee time after 1pm. Pros: Can't beat the price; nice easy course; good length. Cons: sometimes the course is not in the best condition.
Awesome experience from start to finish. Called and talked to a super nice young lady on the phone to book a tee time and she encouraged me to print out a coupon from their website to save money. I was in a rush so didnt have time to print them out but was given the discount anyway! The young lady and older gentleman in the clubhouse were so nice and welcoming. The course has a real family relaxed atmosphere to it that I appreciate. Course was in pretty good shape for the weather we have had. No rain and blazing heat has turned some fairway grass yellow and some greens are under construction…
Love this course .. perfect 18.. Owner Moe and his family and crew are amazing.. always a laugh talking with him when we are there.. enjoy the course . very easy goin.. look forward to another round there in a couple weeks
Tried to golf there years ago and the owner was rude. Told us he had a tournament at 11 so we couldn't golf at 9.Went back today and things haven't changed one bit. Cash only. Will never go back even if it's cheap no one should ever be treated that way when they're paying. Pay a little more and be treated the way a paying customer should be treated. NEVER EVER again will this man get one cent from me. Do yourself a favor and golf somewhere else.
