Cataraqui at Cataraqui Golf & Country Club

Cataraqui Golf & Country Club, perched where Lake Ontario kisses Kingston, is a testament to enduring Canadian golf tradition. Its gently rolling parkland layout, shaped by mature trees and strategic bunkering, rewards thoughtful play over sheer power. The course, while not nationally prominent, favors a strategic approach, challenging golfers to navigate doglegs and well-guarded greens – demanding precision with a draw.

Originally designed in the early 20th century, with later refinements, Cataraqui retains a classic feel, offering a balanced test for players of all skill levels. The club itself fosters a welcoming atmosphere, a place where members gather not just for the golf but for the camaraderie of a shared sporting passion.

While Cataraqui's competitive history doesn’t include major professional tournaments, it’s a fixture in Ontario amateur golf circles. The membership, a mix of long-time Kingstonians and newer residents, takes pride in the club's relaxed elegance and its role as a social hub in the community.

A noted tidbit within the club is their storied Friday evening fish fry during the summer months. This tradition has been going strong for decades, and is a staple of the Cataraqui experience.
