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.

It’s the kind of place where you show up for a round and end up staying for dinner – or another 18.
