Conestoga Golf Club combines the best of rural beauty and modern design. Just outside Waterloo, this 27-hole GolfNorth property spreads across rolling farmland, riverside valleys, and mature woodland. It’s a full-day experience if you want it to be, or an easy nine if time’s tight.
The three nines - Village, Goose, and Elm - each have their own rhythm. The Village nine plays open and forgiving; Goose is tighter with more water in play; Elm balances elevation and shot variety beautifully. Together they create endless combinations that keep regulars coming back.
Conestoga’s greens are smooth and fair, its fairways are generous but strategic, and the layout mixes scorable holes with ones that demand every bit of concentration. Conditioning is consistently strong, and facilities include a proper driving range, full clubhouse, and practice greens.
This is modern semi-private golf done right - professional but approachable, fun for every skill level, and always worth the drive.
The first lesson in Golf Course Architecture 101 is that land should dictate design. So it’s no surprise that hall-of-famer Hale Irwin, one of the few players in history to win three U.S. Opens and a prodigious student of the game, would follow that rule to a “tee” at Coyote Crossing in West Lafayette, IN. The award-winning layout fits the property like a well-worn glove.
