Roseland G&CC

Canada’s only municipal Donald Ross golf course (est. 1926), Roseland rests in the heart of Windsor. An elegant layout loyal to its original design, its terrain may be flat, but its greens provide elevation and movement. Typical for Ross designs, putting surfaces are generally pitched from back to front, with multiple tiers, but each is distinct from the rest, with the odd false front contributing to the challenge. The depth of well-placed greenside bunkers adds to the defence of par—although our favourite stretch of sand might be the nefarious fairway bunker that dissects virtually the entire fairway at the par-5 2nd hole, 100 yards from the green. There’s an absolute grind to the three finishing holes, while a nine-hole par-3 course offers a more stress-free walk in the park.
