Hockley Valley Resort delivers a complete golf-and-stay experience, with 18 holes of resort golf carved into the rolling hills of the Hockley Valley north of Orangeville. The Thomas McBroom–designed course is renowned for its elevation changes, dramatic shot values, and pure conditioning.
Fairways twist through forest and meadowland, demanding accuracy more than distance. Several tee shots play from elevated boxes where wind and trajectory become real factors, and the greens are McBroom’s trademark—fast, sloped, and full of character. Every hole feels intentional, with no filler in the routing.
Beyond the course, Hockley Valley offers everything a destination golfer could want—boutique resort rooms, a full-service spa, fine dining, and a winery next door. Whether you’re there for serious golf or a weekend escape, the combination of design quality and atmosphere makes it one of Ontario’s premier golf resorts.
