Golf in the Laurentides: Season, Regions and Tips for Planning a Golf Getaway
With mountain views, lakes and forest-lined fairways, the Laurentides are one of Quebec’s most popular golf destinations, less than two hours from Montreal. Here is how to plan a golf trip in the region.
When is golf season?
The season usually runs from May to October, depending on snowmelt and fall weather. Early spring and late fall often bring lower rates, while summer weekends are the busiest. Fall is especially beautiful with the changing colours; see our guide to fall colours in the Laurentides.
Where to play
| Area | What to expect |
|---|---|
| Mont-Tremblant | Resort courses, mountain scenery, golf packages |
| Saint-Sauveur and Sainte-Adèle | Close to Montreal, ideal for day trips |
| Saint-Jérôme and Mirabel area | Easy access from the city, flatter terrain |
| Sainte-Agathe and the lakes | Quieter courses near lake towns |
Booking tips
- Book weekend tee times well in advance in July and August.
- Look for twilight rates in the late afternoon.
- Ask whether a cart is included or mandatory.
- Check dress codes, which vary between courses.
- Consider stay-and-play packages for multi-day trips.
Where to stay
Golf hotels and resorts offer packages with rooms and rounds. For groups, a chalet near the course can be cheaper. Compare options with our sister guides to Laurentides hotels and chalet rentals.
Make it a full getaway
- Relax at a Nordic spa after your round.
- Visit a local microbrewery or winery.
- Cycle a section of the P’tit Train du Nord.
