GreyHawk Golf Club
About this course
Predator at GreyHawk Golf Club occupies rolling terrain in Cumberland, a rural community east of Ottawa in eastern Ontario. Designed by Paul Takahashi, the course reflects the architect's approach to routing golf holes through natural landforms with minimal earth-moving, allowing the existing topography to shape strategy and shot values. The property features a mix of open and wooded corridors, with elevation changes that provide variety in stance and perspective throughout the round. The layout incorporates natural hazards and native vegetation characteristic of the Ottawa Valley region, including stands of mature hardwoods and areas of wetland that come into play on several holes. Takahashi's design emphasizes ground game options and rewards players who can work the ball with the contours rather than relying solely on aerial approaches. The green complexes feature subtle internal movement, and their surrounds often allow for bump-and-run shots when conditions permit. GreyHawk operates as a semi-private facility, offering both member and public access during the season. The course serves golfers from the Ottawa-Gatineau metropolitan area as well as visitors exploring courses in eastern Ontario. Predator provides a test that favors course management and accuracy over pure distance, with strategic interest derived from how the routing uses the natural movement in the land. The facility includes practice areas and a clubhouse that supports both casual and competitive play throughout the golf season.

Getting there
The journey to GreyHawk Golf Club begins at Ottawa Macdonald-Cartier International Airport (YOW), situated roughly forty minutes to the southwest, a straightforward drive that carries you from the nation's capital into the quieter reaches of the Ottawa Valley. From the airport, the route traces eastward through the rolling countryside of eastern Ontario, where the landscape gradually shifts from suburban periphery to open farmland and dense boreal forest - a transition that signals your arrival in Cumberland's more secluded terrain. Private aviation offers a more intimate approach via the nearby airstrips that serve the region's discerning travelers, though the final miles to GreyHawk are best savored by road, as the club's entrance emerges from the woodland setting with the understated grace befitting a sanctuary designed for serious golfers seeking refuge from the city's reach.
