Hornby Glen Golf Club has been a Halton Hills favorite since 1964—a course that keeps its regulars loyal with tree-lined fairways, quick greens, and a fair but demanding layout. It plays to just over 6,300 yards from the back tees, par 71, and challenges golfers to stay disciplined from tee to green.
The front nine rewards solid driving, with several tight par 4s that require placement over power. The back nine opens up slightly and introduces water on a few memorable holes. Greens are small but quick, rewarding precision on approaches.
