Reviews of Bell Bay Golf Club (Golf)

Chris Cocek

Bell Bay is a well designed course that deserves some more recognition than it receives. However that is also what makes it special. It is under rated. The course is now starting to see the benefits of regular maintenance work that was seemingly neglected for a few years. The fairways and greens were in excellent shape as of mid-August. While the status of a more permanent club house remains up in the air, the one on site serves the purpose! Find the time to play this course!!

Stunning course... absolutely gorgeous. Thanks for a wonderful day!

The course is in very nice shape now. The greens were just cut and fertilized, and though a hair slow because of the treatment, they were still very smooth and true, and easy to putt (surface-wise that is. The breaks were a little tricky). It is a VERY beautiful course–especially the back nine– and well worth playing. The pro shop is just a trailer, and there is no club house or dining at all.

Nice layout good condition

Dave MacDonald

Course was excellent, views were a little lacking but did not take away from the quality of the course. As for staff the beverage cart and snack shack staff were very friendly and approachable, however some of the staff in senior positions were less than pleasant to deal with.

Fantastic golf course! We loved the condition, the views and the service! The head pro Zach is a great guy so make sure to go say hi! Highly recommend playing here!

The review from Jim Doyle on Google Reviews is unfair. Last year the greens were rough for the first month or so due to a very harsh winter. Le Portage was equally affected. The greens were fine after that first month. I suspect they will be good from the start this year as the winter wasn't very harsh.

Peter Sickles

Utterly fantastic. I understand the course was in bad shape a few years ago, but it's absolutely perfect and stunning now. Lots of variety in the holes... some more challenging than others. The scenery is incredible. Thanks for a memorable experience!

Always a pleasure to play this beautiful course. The course is well manicured. Staff is courteous and helpful. Sad to see the spot where the spectacular clubhouse used to stand.

TO ONE AND ALL……DO NOT…..REPEAT…..DO NOT BOOK TO PLAY BELL BAY GOLF RESORT……played there August 3, 2015 @ a ridiculous price of $247.00 for two people (cart included) and was totally ripped off. The course had all players start on the back nine as the greens were terrible…..upon starting the second nine (first nine normally), the greens were so bad, they were literally UNPLAYABLE. Had any player started on the 1st tee, ALL PLAYERS would have requested a refund after a couple of holes as this course is not even worth paying $30.00, cart included. After complaining to the staff after our round, their excuse was that they had a bad winter. If we had been told this prior to playing, we would not have played. WHAT A SHAM, having everyone play the back nine first on bad greens and then playing the front nine afterwards on absolutely unplayable greens is unfathomable……I am a Maritimer as well and it behooves me to understand how they have stooped so low to rip guests off…..unbelievable. This course should be placed on the DO NOT PLAY LIST until such time as the course is once again playable (which will take a couple of years at least to repair the greens and also IF they do not have any further bad winters (their excuse). DO NOT PLAY THIS COURSE FOR A MINIMAL OF TWO YEARS FROM THIS DATE……THAT IS IF THEY REPAIR THE DAMAGED GREENS.

I was able to play Bell Bay early this season and was really happy with the overall experience. The course was very wet as we played after a large rain event, but the greens were true and a great pace. Overall course conditioning was great. Kudos to Allen, Ferris, Thomas, and the rest of the staff who were all super friendly, as always. Will be back soon!
