The golf course is the focal point of the Amberwood Village Golf and Recreation Club. With the challenging features of the course, including water hazards on every hole, our golfers find the nine holes of our club an excellent place to test their skills. By playing from two different tee boxes for the front and back nine, the course can become a challenging 18 holes.
Members may book tee-off times seven days in advance. Amberwood Village Homeowner members may book 6 days in advance. Non-members may book five days in advance. The quality of the course maintenance is second to none in the Ottawa area. A driving net, a practice chipping and sand bunker area, and a practice putting green are maintained for golfers’ use.
The best rates will always be available online. But you can also book a tee time over the telephone by calling us at 613-836-2581. The following rates will apply. (HST not incl.)
Monday to Thursday – 9 Hole 2024 Green Fee

.
For a time in the 1970s, the land that is now the Amberwood Village Golf and Recreation Club was marshland and beaver ponds. The area had once been a working farm, but beavers had built dams on Poole Creek, raising the water in some portions to four feet. Meanwhile, developer Jack Johannsen had a long-term vision to build a resort-style, adult community in the Ottawa area. In the mid-1960s, he had signed a 10-year agreement to purchase the farmland, but he postponed his plan until a sewer system was in place in Stittsville. Back then, Stittsville had a population of 3,000—less than a tenth of what it is today. There were no big box stores or restaurants or large shopping malls. To entice buyers to Amberwood Village, the developer created a very special drawing card—a challenging nine-hole golf course complemented by a pool, tennis courts and a posh clubhouse with racquetball courts and other amenities. And he assured buyers that they would collectively own everything. In 1986, the 50-acre property and its amenities were turned over to the not-for-profit Amberwood Village Recreation Association (AVRA) for the sum of $1. Today, the property is still owned by AVRA homeowner members and the once private club is now open to the public.

.
For a time in the 1970s, the land that is now the Amberwood Village Golf and Recreation Club was marshland and beaver ponds. The area had once been a working farm, but beavers had built dams on Poole Creek, raising the water in some portions to four feet. Meanwhile, developer Jack Johannsen had a long-term vision to build a resort-style, adult community in the Ottawa area. In the mid-1960s, he had signed a 10-year agreement to purchase the farmland, but he postponed his plan until a sewer system was in place in Stittsville. Back then, Stittsville had a population of 3,000—less than a tenth of what it is today. There were no big box stores or restaurants or large shopping malls. To entice buyers to Amberwood Village, the developer created a very special drawing card—a challenging nine-hole golf course complemented by a pool, tennis courts and a posh clubhouse with racquetball courts and other amenities. And he assured buyers that they would collectively own everything. In 1986, the 50-acre property and its amenities were turned over to the not-for-profit Amberwood Village Recreation Association (AVRA) for the sum of $1. Today, the property is still owned by AVRA homeowner members and the once private club is now open to the public.
