OPENING DAY for the 2021 season is Tuesday, March 30. Looking forward to seeing you soon at Oxley Beach. Call for tee times. New for this year: mandatory masks from the parking lot, around the clubhouse, and to the first tee. Once there you can leave it on or remove for play. Though Covid-19 has brought many challenges, it has also created a wonderful resurgence and interest in the sport of golf. For that, we are very thankful! Stay well, stay safe!
Christine and Richard Froese, current owners of the OXLEY BEACH GOLF COURSE, warmly welcome you to "Canada's Southernmost Golf Course"! It is a scenic public 18 Hole Par 3,
designed by Byron Hatfield in 1963. Located along the Lake Erie
Northshore Wine Route, just half an hour southeast of Windsor, it's an
excellent track to practise the short game!
At 2380 yards,
the layout includes 16 sand traps, a small natural pond, shorter tee
boxes as an option on 4 holes, as well as a small practice green for
putting. The lay of the land is fairly level, gently sloping toward
the lake and marsh area--a key point to remember when putting. Graced
with large shade trees and cool offshore breezes, the course has lush
fairways and immaculate greens. With sandy soil, drainage is superb!
The course's signature hole is the 13th. It features a small pond in front of the tee box, a marsh running along the left, and an interesting willow tree just right of center fairway. No matter how you score, you will leave this hole impressed with its serene beauty, enhanced by the occasional sighting of deer, fox, eagle, bullfrogs, or snapping turtle.
