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.

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