Great little golf course out in Jackson's Point. This place has been here for decades (I think…read moremaybe even around a century), and is a nice 9 hole course for those of us who don't take our golf game too seriously. It's not an executive 9 hole, but it isn't a really long course either (about 2500 yards from the back tees). There's very little water and sand, but lots of trees around the outside of the course, while the inside is pretty wide open. They don't take tee times here, you just park, pay, and play. Sometimes you wait, sometimes you don't. I've never seen it crazy busy though. I've seen a couple of different people working here over the years, but I believe it's still a family run business. Everyone that mans the desk seems to be friendly and accommodating. Price is great. $17 for 9 holes, and an extra $6 if you want to go around again. The greens were in pretty rough shape this time around, but I think the weather this summer has wreaked havoc on many golf greens. I will definitely be back here, and it will remain my go to course for those days when I don't want to be too formal with my game

The view was fabulous, our server, Avery, was super - friendly and very conscientious of our choices to be "slightly modified". The calamari was great, one of the rare times we have had it that it was NOT in the least bit "rubbery". The steak was done perfectly to our order. As we were dining, the Chef, Ian, came out to greet us and make certain that everything was to our liking. We also asked for a copy of their "regular" menu to peruse it for the future, and were delighted with what they offer. I would highly recommend the restaurant at Tangle Creek Gold & Country Club to anyone!

Hawk Ridge holds the distinction of being the nicest golf course in Orillia. As a result of being a…read morebig fish in a microscopic pond, the staff are generally pretty high on their horses and seem to think that they work at Glen Abbey. The course is 45 holes, which might make you wonder whether Orillia's population could possibly support that many holes. The answer appears to be that it can't, as it's almost always dead. You can get a tee time in the middle of summer at 10 am on a Saturday by calling the day before if you are so inclined. They have an 18 hole course called "Meadow-Nest", another 18 called "Timber-Ridge" and a par 3 called "Hawk's Island". The Timber-Ridge is terrible. The Timber portion could be nice but it is always soaking wet so the grass doesn't grow properly and the Ridge aspect is just really boring. Everyone knows that Timber-Ridge sucks so they are constantly offering deals like $45 for 18 and a cart, while Meadow-Nest would cost more like $80 for the same thing. The par 3, like any par 3, is a waste of your time. The Meadow-Nest is really quite nice. The Meadow portion is pretty long and fairly open, while the Nest is more treed and shorter. The entire course has a creek running back and forth that makes it more difficult than it would be otherwise. The driving range is also really good. It has real grass to hit from, instead of mats, and it is deep and wide so there is no need for netting or anything. They also serve good food and have a lot of options with a gazeebo at the turn, a small restaurant that includes a nice patio and a large space that usually hosts weddings and things of that nature.

I visited this location as a sponsor for a hole at a golf tournament so while I didn't get to golf,…read moreI was able to see how this establishment ran. The areas of the golf course I did see were well kept with garbage cans empty and well maintained. There is ample parking space a beautiful club house. This golf course boasts 27 holes which I had not seen before. We stayed for dinner with this event and it was so amazing to see the hospitality team at work. The clubhouse space is beautiful and would be perfect for any type of function including weddings. Dinner was served to us in stations rather than buffet. Players got to eat at a pig roast station, taco and nacho station, macaroni and cheese station, Antipesto station and finally, dessert. It was a really smart concept as it meant nobody had to wait in line and everyone got to eat what they wanted. Brilliant. Based on my experience, I would like to return to play golf.

Snow tubing review…read more Great price, it's $25 for two hours of fun which is more reasonable than lakeridge being $40. Both places have 4 tubing lanes that seem roughly same height. This place has smaller tubes for minimum height of 40 inches while Lakeridge is minimum 42 inches and only one size. So this is a friendlier place for little ones starting their tubing experience, as they need to be able to reach the grip. We love going as a group of tubes, lots of fun spinning down the slope. Only down side here is there is only one lift for all users. So the lift gets shared with tubers, skiers, and snowboarders. It's a standing carpet that seems to get stuck often. Approximately 3-4 rides per hour, due to crowds or stalling of lift, and it wasn't that busy on our visit. Staff here are all friendly, free parking. Easy booking online for slotted time, check in outside the building for passes. Washrooms are small but clean. Lots of indoor cafeteria seating. Small outdoor seating by wood burning fire pit. Small cafeteria, Dina's which serves decent burgers, poutines and simple snacks. The prices are reasonable, it's just really slow service. Waited 12 mins for poutine ($8) and it wasn't busy. Tip: There is a free sledding hill but you need to bring your own sled and walk up the hill. For reference, this hill is a good training hill for those new to ski/snowboard. Pretty narrow and short but great to learn from. It wasn't busy when we were there so that helps learners. Jump ramps were highlighted in blue on the snow.

I got my first tubing experience here, the hill is pretty small, but the overall experience is not bad. As I said before, this place has only one small hill, it is shared between tubing and skiing.

Small, but a good place to spend afternoon with family or group.

For the Tree Trekking all customers are by appointment. Your are time slotted for instructional…read morelessons on how to use your equipment safely. After that you are instructed to start on the easiest courses and work your way through. What is not disclosed is that you have to sign an additional waiver when your inside (aside from the one on arrival). The odd thing is that it is just a notebook and the student employees just ask you did you do all the other courses before attempt the most advanced course. It's pretty loosey goosey, instead of this system a stamp system should be used or a passport system because if they are using this for liability is a signature request under duress (is what I understand from my legal eagle knowledge). Considering the risk, I would say more needs to be done. The whole course are supervised and the summer hired students are trained to radio each other when a new person is going on the course. The two customer limit on platform are loosely reinforced. I did find that some of the platforms were short on the landing for the mini zipline sections. And on the course the student hires warned us it's slippery because it was wet. Perhaps add some slip grips just because you're flying in at high speed into the landing in some cases (especially when you're pretty large). Good things is that if you wanted the zipline experience you get it through the whole course. You can get away with just paying for the whole course. If you're a parent you may want to go in and just have a look how things are run before putting your kids through the track for the peace of mind. The other thing is that you also want to have a telephoto lens on your slr if you're watching from the ground or hookup your child with a go pro for the fun of watching later. Overall difficulty was intermediate. I think to level up try the course without holding on anything. This was my first time doing this. I would have preferred more physical challenges on the course. There are washrooms behind the sign in cabin. Two toilets in the female. But if you want cleaner go back to the resort. So I rated this four star for the following reason. 1. Price point is steep on a single visit, even with coupons. Season pass may be better; 2. The course liability on-site could be better, I just wonder what happened if there was an accident and if the location did enough to protect customers; 3. The course is full of student employees, surely trained well. But considering young kids on the course a few adult staff would make it feel safer. There were times when I know none if the staff we watching me because I was sloppy on the security straps-without realizing until my date warned me (thanks); 4. Washrooms are not clean on the premise of the trekking. Go to horseshoe resort.

The fantastic golf course is run by former colleagues of mine and we had arranged an outing for a few groups. The course is immaculately groomed, with generous undulating fairways. The rough is fairly forgiving but if your ball goes into the dense brush forget about looking for it. It's very dense! Trees aren't much of a problem on this course, except for the finishing holes. Water comes into play on only two holes. Kudos to the staff for keeping the course in such great condition. The driving range is a modest setup, with several flags as targets. The distances are shown on a sign in the tee area. There is also a club washer. Golf carts are electric so they're quiet, and especially nice on this really hot day. They even have a cooler attached to keep you beverages cool. And USB ports to keep your devices charged! There was a group of ladies playing a mini tournament ahead of us. They were walking the course. Good for them! Several of us stuck around for a bite and some drinks on their large patio overlooking the 10th hole. The food was decent but the wait time was very long and the execution could have been much better. Proper French fries would have been preferred over the potato chips or home fries. One carrot stick with my wings? Really??? This needs to be improved. Some of our group had reservations at the resort. Despite the hot weather, everybody enjoyed the day and loved the golf course. I'm sure we'll be back!
