Heron Point Golf Links in Alberton is a picturesque and challenging golf club and wedding venue designed by renowned Canadian architect Thomas McBroom. Nestled around the rolling landscape of Lake Dunmark near Ancaster, the course features a seamless blend of three different themes - Carolina lowlands golf, Canadian parkland golf, and links-style golf. The well-protected greens with run-offs and ramps provide an exciting challenge for golfers of all levels.
The course offers a peaceful and scenic walk with several forced carries over the lake and environmentally sensitive areas. The highlight of the course is the dramatic finishing holes, leading up to the epic 18th hole that calls for a 220-yard carry from the back tees. Heron Point also boasts full practice facilities with five target greens for players to hone their skills.
The 22,000 square-foot clubhouse at Heron Point overlooks the lake and provides a stunning backdrop for events. The Great Room and lounge are ideal for both large and small gatherings, including weddings, corporate events, and social functions. Members and guests can take advantage of the fully equipped locker rooms with saunas, adding extra comfort and luxury to their experience.
