Par 62 layouts get dismissed too quickly by golfers chasing length, but Heron Landing makes a strong case for the format. A course playing to par 62 is built around short par 4s and a concentration of par 3s, which shifts the test almost entirely to ball-striking precision, course management, and putting — the parts of your game that actually show up on a scorecard. These courses reward players who can shape a wedge, read a green, and manufacture a score rather than simply overpower the layout.
Peterborough sits in the heart of the Kawartha Lakes region of central Ontario, a landscape defined by Canadian Shield geology, mixed forest, and a network of lakes and rivers that have made it a recreational destination for generations of Ontarians. The city has a modest but active local golf scene, and shorter layouts like Heron Landing serve a genuine community function — accessible, quick to play, and approachable for a wide range of abilities.
Without deeper knowledge of the specific design, routing, or ownership history of Heron Landing itself, what can be said is that a course named for one of the region's most recognizable waterbirds signals an intention to lean into the natural character of Kawartha country.
