Par 68 layouts often get dismissed before golfers even tee it up, but Eganridge earns its place on the map through setting rather than length. Situated on the shores of Sturgeon Lake in the Kawartha Lakes region of Ontario, this is cottage-country golf at its most scenic — the kind of round where the view across the water competes for your attention as much as the next shot does.
The Kawarthas sit about 2 hours northeast of Toronto, a chain of lakes and granite-studded Canadian Shield landscape that draws generations of Ontario families back every summer. Golf here tends to be relaxed and unhurried, shaped by the same rhythms as the broader region — boats on the water, loons calling, afternoons that stretch long in the July light.
Eganridge operates as a resort property, pairing its course with an inn and spa, so the golf fits into a larger leisure picture rather than standing alone as a test of the game. Expect a walkable, enjoyable round that rewards course management over raw power on a layout where every hole stays within reach.
