Eagles Nest at Eagles Nest Golf Club

Eagles Nest, sculpted from the rolling landscape north of Toronto, stands as a testament to Canadian golf's modern ambition. The course, crafted in the early 2000s, embraces a links-style ethos with fescue grasses framing generous fairways and demanding approaches to subtly contoured greens. While seemingly benevolent from the tee, the layout encourages strategic play. A draw is preferred as many fairways drift right-to-left.

Architect Doug Carrick instilled the course with a blend of playability and challenge, making it accessible to a wide range of golfers while still testing the mettle of skilled players. Water hazards punctuate the landscape, requiring golfers to manage risk and reward effectively.

The club, while not steeped in the same championship pedigree as some of Canada's older institutions, has nevertheless built a strong regional reputation for its exceptional conditioning and welcoming atmosphere. It's known locally for its robust and diverse membership, where passionate golfers gather and also love to share stories after the round over the club's famous clubhouse poutine.
