Lakeside Golf Club is cottage-country golf at its purest—quiet, natural, and scenic. Nestled along Pine Lake just outside West Guilford, this 9-hole layout captures everything people love about Haliburton golf: elevation, forested fairways, and the occasional water carry that makes you stop and take in the view. The course plays around 3,000 yards but offers plenty of challenge through narrow corridors and small, contoured greens. It’s an easy walk, making it perfect for relaxed rounds or family play. Many locals loop it twice for 18, enjoying how the second go-around plays differently with new angles and wind. The setting is the real star here—towering pines, lake breezes, and wildlife that occasionally wander across a fairway. Lakeside is golf stripped back to what matters most: a peaceful walk, good company, and a swing that feels free.
