Not exclusively is Prince Edward Island’s landscape a banquet for the eyes but there is something for entirely golf enthusiasts, no matter of skill level. Canada’s smallest province has acquired the reputation of being the country’s first golf resort site, not just once, but twice! PEI boasts over 26 courses in total ranging from executive, intermediate and novice skill levels. The Island has also played host in recent years to a number of professional golfers such as in the 1998 “Skins Game” with Fred Couples, Mark O’Meara, Mike Weir and John Daly. Mike Weir was once more on the Island for the Making the Connection Legends of Golf event in July 2007 where he and golf legend Vijay Singh played The Links at Crowbush Cove in beautiful Lakeside, PEI.
If it is an executive course you look for, there is one on every corner of the island. If you happen to be in the west give Mill River a whirl. As a par 72 course with 14 par 4 and above holes and greens fees at $45- $60, why junked another second? In the north Glasgow Hills is some other par 72 planned by Les Furber and is classified as a ‘World Class Signature Golf Course”. If visiting central Prince Edward Island the Glen Afton Golf Club is a fantastic way to spend an afternoon. This par 70 course provides the greatest bang for its buck, $26- $33 for about – an absolute steal. When you finally get away to the eastern side of PEI build sure to pay the red sandstone championship Dundarave golf course a visit. After opening in July of 1999 it was like a flash to grab the aid of Golf Digest and SCORE golf magazine with both giving it top marks. These courses anticipate to give you the chance to exhaust all of the clubs in your bag.
If you worship the game but are not ready to play with the pros, why not brush up on one of Prince Edward Island’s many 9 hole golf courses. Not only will it do some good to polish up, these courses are a great arrangement to include the whole family. If your kids have an interest, or someone looking to play a shorter game is along, visiting St. Felix in the West, Forest Hills in the North, Country Plan in central PEI or Eagles View in the East are all great ways to get away and savor the sights PEI has to offer.
If you happen to be feeling challenging you could try your luck with a double header at the beautiful Brudenell River and contacting Dundarave. Offering 36 holes this day of golf promises to be quite memorable.
The next time you think of projecting a golf vacation, maintain Prince Edward Island top of mind!
