Whirlpool Golf Course
Whirlpool Golf Course is one of Canada’s most highly rated and renowned public golf courses. Opening in 1951, Whirlpool was the final course completed by the legendary course architect Stanley Thompson. This classic parkland course at the precipice of the Niagara River Gorge offers wonderful hole variety and birdie opportunities, a hallmark of Thompson’s very best work.
Nearby hiking trails at the Niagara Glen and a 56-kilometre cycling trail make this the perfect active getaway in a spectacular setting against the backdrop of the Niagara River Whirlpool and Gorge.
