Course Description

Cornerstone Golf Club was designed to give golfers the atmosphere of playing an old Scottish Course, with gentle terrain, stone hedges, and plenty of natural ground cover.  The course is 2,066 to 2,962 yards, with nine holes meandering through 100 acres of solitude and natural Bruce Peninsula beauty.  Forward tees encourage novice golfers while the contoured fairways, doglegs, ponds, and long par 3s make the back tees a challenge for serious golfers.  The large property allows privacy from neighbouring holes, surrounded mainly by woodland and meadows.  A second set of tee decks offers a very different experience the second time around.

The course has plenty of trees – predominantly cedar, along with birch, poplar, maple, pine, spruce, tamarack and apple trees, drawing native wild animals such as fishers, coyotes, wolves, foxes, rabbits, deer and even the odd bear!  Many wild birds such as grouse, owls, ducks, geese, song birds, hawks and occasionally an eagle make the golf course their home.

Though the course plays short on some holes, it offers several risk-reward opportunities for the serious golfer, while being easy enough for the novice or recreational player.  Some of the holes are designed for you to lay up short of trouble off the tee.  Other holes require you to land your approach shot short of the green and run the ball up, which can lead to some unpredictable bounces.

The midsized, rolling greens may make it difficult to get the ball close to the hole.  The greens are lush and true, and they are a manageable speed.

Water comes into play on four holes, but should not cause any difficulty to the short hitters. The wind can be a factor on this course, and will definitely bring the water into play. Like St. Andrews, in mid-summer the course gets dry and the drives can be long but also leave you in trouble if the ball runs away, A three wood is a good choice when faced with a cross wind or if the wind is at your back.

This course was designed for the player with good course management. The player who is used to playing on large greens with moderate winds may find this course a challenge if they are not willing to adapt to the terrain. A golfer with good course management who hits a straight ball could eat up this course. What type of player are you, and are you willing to put your management skills to the test?
