WELCOME

On behalf of the Club’s Members, the Management Team and the Staff at the Club, we would like to extend you a very warm welcome to the London Hunt and Country Club.

Our goal is to ensure that you enjoy your experience with everything the Club has to offer; the facilities, the golf course, the camaraderie of your fellow players and the hospitality of our Members.

Our extraordinary staff will be here throughout your day to assist you in any way we can. If there is anything that would make your visit to the Club more enjoyable, please do not hesitate to call on any of us.

Arrival/Reception

Upon arrival at the Club please proceed to the bag drop – starter’s booth located near the Clubhouse / Golf Shop building. Our team will help unload your Golf Bag and place them on a power cart or push cart if you choose. After parking, the Golf Shop is available for check-in, shopping the latest styles or last-minute equipment and accessory needs. Team members will be more than happy to guide you in any direction you may need. The Golf Shop accepts debit and Visa/Mastercard or if you belong to another private Club we can sign any purchases to your home club account.

Cell Phones

The use of phones is permitted at the Club, however no phone calls shall affect the enjoyment of others in the surrounding area – best practice is to take the call within a hallway or vacant room. Please ensure your conversation is conducted at a volume level conducive to your environment. Ringers should be silenced at all times while on the golf course or in the Clubhouse.

Locker Rooms/Pre-Round

Our locker rooms are located on the lower level of the club. At this time guest lockers are not available; however many guests share their host’s locker, and the locker room does have multiple areas to hang garment bags at two of the three room entrances. Our locker attendant will also care for your shoes as part of your experience, please take advantage of a shoeshine before and after your round. Complimentary coffee is available in the Café 1885 room before 11:30 am. Water and ice is available outside the Golf Shop by the first tee, please help yourself. Our practice facilities are first rate – use of the driving range, warm up green, large putting green, bunker and chipping green are located in two separate areas. The driving range is beside the front parking lot, and the short game facilities are located between our 18th and 16th fairways. Our staff are happy to give you guidance or direction.

Carts

Complimentary push carts are available for use and our fleet of Club Car power carts are equipped with GPS and Geo Fencing to protect the golf course. Please follow all cart rules and keep four wheels on cart paths at all times around tees and greens. Personal electric caddies are welcome at LHCC but no personal ride on vehicles are permitted of any kind.

On Course

Our course has 7 sets of tees that provide enjoyment for every level of player. We encourage you to select the one suited to the abilities of your group. Please ensure to replace your divots with the divot when possible and use the sand bottle on the power carts and push carts. Repair ball marks and enter and exit the bunkers from the low side and take your time raking the bunkers properly to leave no trace. Groups of 4 should play within our standard pace rate of 4 hours when playing 18 holes. We wish to remind all groups to keep pace with the group in front of them, not the group behind. Please play ready golf and keep up with the group in front of you.

In case of inclement weather golf carts may not be permitted on the course. Our Strike Guard Lightning detection system will sound automatically if there is a lightning strike within 5 miles of LHCC. If the system sounds you will hear an audible noise, please return to the clubhouse or take shelter in the nearest on course building.

On behalf of the Membership, Board of Directors and staff of the London Hunt and Country Club we hope you have a wonderful experience as our guest.

Sincerely,

Chris Lawson, PGA of Canada – Director of Golf
Jon Nusink CCM, CCE – General Manager / Chief Operating Officer
