Golf Hermitage, located in Magog in Quebec's Eastern Townships, was designed by Albert H. Murray, a prominent Canadian golf architect active in the early-to-mid twentieth century. Murray's work across Canada established him as a thoughtful designer responsive to natural terrain, and Hermitage reflects that approach within its regional setting. The course occupies a landscape typical of the Eastern Townships, with rolling topography and mature woodland characteristic of the area's transition between agricultural land and the Appalachian foothills. The design makes use of natural elevation changes and tree-lined corridors, creating a routing that flows through the property's varied terrain. Like many Murray designs of the era, Hermitage emphasizes strategic shot-making over length, with greens positioned to reward accuracy and course management. The club itself has maintained a membership-focused character reflective of its era and region, serving the Magog community and surrounding areas. The course has hosted regional competitions and amateur events typical of Canadian clubs of its standing. Hermitage represents a solid example of early Canadian golf architecture, designed with an understanding of how to integrate a course into its natural landscape rather than impose an artificial design upon it.
