Forest Golf Club & Inn is one of Southwestern Ontario’s oldest and most beloved golf destinations. Located in the town of Forest, it combines a classic 27-hole layout with on-site lodging and a full restaurant, making it ideal for stay-and-play trips.
The course plays through mature trees, open meadows, and light elevation changes. Each nine offers something different – the original 18 feels traditional, while the third nine introduces newer design touches and a few risk-reward holes.
Greens are smooth and receptive, and the course’s balance of difficulty makes it accessible to all golfers. Add in a large practice area and a friendly, small-town atmosphere, and it’s easy to see why Forest Golf Club has hosted generations of players.
It’s the kind of place where you show up for a round and end up staying for dinner – or another 18.
A city best known for growing peanuts proved it was no “goober” back in 1972 when architect Russell Breeden was hired to design Sleepy Hole Golf Course in Suffolk, VA. More than 50 years later, the layout remains one of the Tidewater’s favorite green patches for those who don’t want to shell out big bucks to play a championship-caliber venue.
