About this course

Golf Whitlock in Hudson, Québec, occupies a scenic setting in the Laurentian foothills northwest of Montreal. The club was designed by Albert Murray, a Canadian architect active in the mid-twentieth century who shaped several notable courses across eastern Canada. Murray's work typically emphasized strategic routing through natural terrain, and Golf Whitlock reflects that philosophy, with holes threaded through mature woodland and across gently rolling topography characteristic of the region. The West and South nines together form a traditional 18-hole layout that takes advantage of the property's elevation changes and tree-lined corridors. The course plays through a mix of open fairways and tree-framed passages, with water features integrated into the design in keeping with Murray's approach to using natural drainage patterns. The setting draws on Hudson's position as a rural retreat area, and the club maintains the quiet, understated character typical of established private courses in Québec's Laurentian communities. Golf Whitlock has served primarily as a members' club focused on the local and regional golfing community. The course has hosted various amateur competitions and club championships over its history, though it remains less widely known than major tournament venues. The combination of Murray's design sensibility, the natural landscape, and the club's long-standing role in Hudson's recreational life gives it a solid standing among regional courses in the greater Montreal area.

Getting there

Golf Whitlock sits in the rolling countryside west of Montreal, accessible via Montreal-Trudeau International Airport (YUL), roughly ninety minutes south and east by car through the gentle Laurentian foothills. Private aviation clients benefit from nearby Saint-Hubert Airport (YHU) or the more intimate facilities at Hudson's own airstrip, each offering a swift transition from tarmac to the club's manicured grounds. The drive itself traces a quiet arc through Quebec's wine country and pastoral farmland, the urban sprawl gradually yielding to tree-lined roads and glimpses of the Ottawa River valley, before arriving at Golf Whitlock's discreet entrance - a sanctuary of championship golf set apart from the bustle of the metropolitan corridor.
