Five reasons to fall hard for October golf

For those of us who dream of taking to the tees each summer, the idea that some players wait all year just to play fall golf is a real eye opener! Here are 5 great reasons to hit the fairways at Mill River this month.

Elbow room on the tee sheets.

Can’t beat getting the tee time you want without booking two weeks out. Don’t get us wrong, we LOVE when the course is busy but there’s something really special about the relaxed pace of fall golf.

What colours!

With more than 400 acres of forest-lined fairways and brilliant coloured leaves decorating this parkland course, you’ll find yourself surrounded by some of the most extraordinary colours. Time it just right and the whole course is alive with electric yellows and bold reds.

Fresh air & refreshments.

Sweater weather on the course puts a spring in your step and sure does work up an appetite for the 19th hole at Callaghan’s. And a little warmup by the fire after the sun goes down never hurts.

Prime weather for walking the course.

Let’s be honest, walking the course in the dog days of summer isn’t for the faint of heart! Those sultry days when the humidity peaks make for one hot stroll with your bag in tow. Bring on the days where covering the 18-holes under your own steam is utterly refreshing.
