Three world-class golf courses await visitors at Niagara Parks, each offering unique challenges for players of all skill levels. The Whirlpool Golf Course, designed by Stanley Thompson in 1951, features a classic parkland layout near the Niagara River Gorge. It was ranked #47 in Canada by Score Golf in 2002 and includes six holes on a plateau for varied play. The course is currently undergoing renovations to restore its original design and offers a newly upgraded pub and lounge.
Experience championship golf at Niagara Parks’ historic courses, where challenging play meets stunning natural surroundings.
Legends on the Niagara features two championship 18-hole courses—Battlefield and Ussher’s Creek—plus a 9-hole executive course called Chippawa. The Battlefield course incorporates a 19-acre lake with views of Niagara Falls, while Ussher’s Creek presents narrower fairways and wetland hazards for experienced golfers. The Chippawa Executive Course provides a compact but still challenging experience.
All Niagara Parks golf courses are Audubon-certified, showing their commitment to environmental sustainability and wildlife conservation. Golfers can take advantage of the All Access Golf Package with discounted rounds starting at $50, including cart usage. The properties feature impressive practice facilities including a 360° driving range spanning 45 acres. Visitors can improve their skills at the TaylorMade Performance Centre located at the Legends Golf Academy.
