Manderley on the Green

Manderley on the Green is a semi-private, 27-hole championship golf facility situated in North Gower, Ontario, roughly a half-hour southwest of Ottawa. One of the region's more established courses, it has been in operation since 1964, giving it the kind of maturity that comes through in its tree-lined fairways and settled character.

The facility is built around three distinct nine-hole loops — the South, Central, and North nines — which can be combined into three separate 18-hole configurations. That structure gives returning visitors meaningful variety from one round to the next, and it means the course can accommodate different pace and difficulty preferences depending on which combination is on the card. The par-72 layout stretches to 6,611 yards from the tips, a distance that rewards accurate driving without demanding elite ball-striking.

The three-nine format makes Manderley a practical choice for golfers who want options within a single property — whether that's a quick nine, a full round, or back-to-back visits without repeating the same layout. The semi-private status means tee times are accessible to visiting players, making it a workable stop on any eastern Ontario golf road trip.

North Gower itself is a small rural community within the City of Ottawa's municipal boundary, set in the flat agricultural landscape south of the capital. The drive in from Ottawa is straightforward, and the setting offers a quieter alternative to courses closer to the urban core.
