Cardinal Eighteen Golf Club in Little Britain is a true community course - welcoming, relaxed, and full of charm. Set in the Kawartha Lakes region, it blends rolling farmland with mature trees and just enough elevation to keep you on your toes.
The layout is open enough for beginners but has the right amount of bite for regulars who know where to miss and where not to. Greens are generous, fairways are wide, and water hazards sneak into play on a few key holes. It’s golf that moves at a good pace, never too hard or too easy.
You’ll notice how the course keeps you thinking - short par 4s that reward smart club selection, par 5s that tempt a bold second shot, and par 3s that test your mid-iron game. The maintenance crew takes clear pride in the course; conditions stay sharp well into fall.
The staff and locals are the soul of Cardinal Eighteen - helpful, friendly, and always ready for a chat about your round. Add in reasonable rates and an easygoing atmosphere, and you’ve got a golf experience that feels like a throwback to when the game was simpler and more personal.
