EDIT: Been back a few times now to play and to practice. Updating from 4 to 5 stars. The course and practice facilities are consistently in fantastic shape. The area is under active construction / development, yes, but that shouldn't really affect my rating of the course which is tough and beautiful. A well-maintained and TOUGH course. As things stand at the time of writing (May 2018) the grounds and surrounding area are really, really rough and under development. I'll be curious to see what the facilities and surrounding area look like when all the construction, debris, and grounds are finished. This is a very unforgiving course and, as such, I wouldn't recommend it for high handicappers. GPS is provided in the power carts which is nice. You can also see the position of the carts ahead of you on blind par 4s and 5s. All in all, a nice course, though I'd only make it a "regular" player due to my proximity to Timberlea. As I said, hopefully the place will be gorgeous when finished, but expect to see dirt, rocks, debris and heavy equipment for now.read more

Lovely well kept golf course right in the middle of a upscale subdivision and ever so close to the city of Halifax or if you like, the South shore.

I went to Brunello to skate. They have a nice setup in a flooded tennis court. It is close to the clubhouse which is open if you need washroom facilities. They also offer cross country skiing with snowmaking capabilities, walking trails, and mountain biking. Golf in the summer. Great facility.read more

Brunello is without question one of the best golf courses you can play in Nova Scotia and Canada. It is always in fantastic shape and the greens are tour quality. It's not an easy golf course and you need to be accurate or you will lose balls, but this course makes you a better golfer. I highly recommend the blue tees - they are like hitting off a green. The bunkers are perfect and the fairways are actual fairways! I only wish they would put in grass on the range to hit from. To be such a top caliber course with mats at the range is disappointing. I'm pretty sure the golf staff know this but it obviously isn't their choice to make. If the owner reads this - you need grass practice facility to come up to the next level. Look at the Cabot courses - beautiful grass ranges. Update June 2021: It's near impossible to get a tee time. It's very disappointing. 4 weeks out booked solid. They will need to do something to remedy this.read more

Fabulous course in great condition! Only issue seems to be on the hole where 7 huge excavators were tearing up the ground around the hole for more housing starts! This course would be in Canada's top ten if it was situated by the ocean!read more

Course is great but just left an early morning tee time and the grounds crew were mowing on almost every hole. Which would not be bad if they stopped when you were trying to shoot and they were right next to you. Clubhouse staff were great. Grounds crew etiquette not great for the price of a green feeread more

James Beeler

20:56 18 Aug 21

This is a very nice course. Very sad to see they sold a bunch of land and built so many homes around. It used to have great views now it's residential... Lots of construction going on still. Don't get me wrong it's an exquisite course. But if it was 5 star before its now 4star. And they lose another star as considering the green fees you pay to play here the food is absolutely terrible. At the turn we all got hot dogs. The bread could not have been more dry and the hot dogs were rock hard like they had been cooked and kept warm for a week... So they lose another star there. Not acceptable for a high end course.read more

Course is challenging. Front 9 has some excessively difficult holes. Service is an area which requires greater attention. As we are on vacation we asked for our clubs to be cleaned. We were told that this is not a service provided and were shown where the water was. Two employees watched as we packed up our clubs in our golf travel bags and never asked if they could help. Rather than providing assistance we were told to hurry up and move out of the way.read more

Some fantastic views. Very challenging layout. Par 3's are very good. 560 yard par 4 is excessive. 9th hole is actually messed up. Elevated greens really legthen the course. Some front nine tee boxes are beaten up. If you are from out of province you pay a premium. Guess they don't like golf tourists. Bag boys didnt want to wash our clubs.......they stood and watched us di them ourselvesread more

This is a nice but extremely difficult golf course to the point of unfair for most golfers. To start, there is a large variance from one set of tees to the next. White for example, are 5970 yards and jump to 6500+ for Blues. I, at a 9 handicap, felt 6500+ would be long with the usual wind and threat of danger. Whites felt very short. Same gap exists for White to Green. The course is still relatively new. Most tee boxes are a mess and greens are hard making it difficult to stop the ball in most cases. Speed of the greens is great and consistent. The course is visually appealing and each hole is it’s own. Where the trouble comes in is the narrow fairways and challenging bumps and slopes which often push everything to the woods. The rough is not wide and is very deep. After that it’s the rough and tumble trees and underbrush of Nova Scotia so be prepared to say good bye to at least 2 sleeves of balls. Top it all off with 8-10 false front greens. I’m not sure who this course was designed for but it’s not the amateur golfer. It would be very discouraging if I were a local homeowner and this was my home course. Pro shop staff seemed uninspired and low on motivation but the staff on beverage carts and in the restaurant were fabulous. Do it once but after that you’ll likely be like me and say thanks but no thanks.read more

Played this course for the first time a few weeks ago and was not disappointed! The course was in absolute top shape, can not fault the greens-keeping at all. The warm-up area is also top notch, and the check-in was fast and smooth. The golf carts have in-built coolers, and a ball washer and club cleaner on the other side. They also have a screen to show you the hole you are on and where you are on the fairway (if you are good enough to be on it!) Had a sandwich and a wine after the round at the local 19th....and the service was fast and friendly and the food delicious.....will definitely be coming back!read more

David Osborne

The course is always in great shape. I like the undulating greens. The fairways on some holes are quite tight with bizarre humps and bumps. A good drive may bounce in the rough or even in the woods.read more

We were at a Friday night retirement party. The food and drinks looked good. I had one beer. It was good, but flat. These things happen. I'm sure it was just the end of a keg or something. Staff were very friendly. I noticed local folk reading the note on the front door about a private function and leaving, they understood, and you could tell they really liked the place. Great place to have this kind of party in the winter! I have friends with golf members that speak very highly of the course.read more

Price wise it's probably the best deal in NS for pass holders. That being said it is nearly impossible to book a tee time. 3 weeks out and first available time Fri-Sun is usually 4pm or later. Extremely frustratingread more

I love to come here for winter activities - the snow is not always great in the Halifax area, but they make the most of what they have. There are xc-ski rentals on site, and this is one of the only places in HRM where you can rent skis. The "Driving Range" is a great place to practice skiing with beginners and kids. I'm very appreciative that they provide this resource to the community at a reasonable price!read more

Haven't played a round here but can highly recommend having an event at the Pavillion. Our company has used them 2 years in a row, and they continue to improve their process and space for clients. The Pavillion itself is a stunning venue with large windows overlooking the course. Their Events Manager, Jon, kept in touch with us throughout the year to ensure all details were well managed and exceeded our expectations. For how incredible the space is, it is reasonably priced and the bartenders we had both times were exceptional as well. Overall, we have been so pleased with the team and experience as a whole!read more

Beautiful long course (7000+ yards) which favours long hitters. However, at times, its better to put away the driver and use a more conservative approach as the rough is thick and tight to the course. Stunning rock outcrops litter the course which combined with some deep bunkers, well placed water hazards, and blind tee boxes are challenging. Fairways and greens are in fabulous condition so far this season. An added perk this season is the addition of all new (and very quiet) golf carts. Staff are friendly and helpful as well. The only drawback is the ongoing construction.read more

Rob Futter

13:37 19 May 24

Such a great spot for an event! The pavilion is a large room located next to the main building and restaurant, overlooking the golf course. They provide a microphone, podium, TV, and speakers. Jon was a pleasure to work with and kept things extremely organized. It was a breeze to execute the event thanks to his attention to detail. He was also there helping us set up and was ready for any questions we had. I would highly recommend this event space.read more
