A Shorter Golf Outing in Windsor: Roseland’s Par-3 Course

Some days call for a full round of golf. Others call for a few good shots, a little fresh air and enough time left over to do something else.

Roseland Golf Club’s nine-hole par-3 course offers a smaller-format alternative to its championship course, right here in Windsor. You will find the club at 455 Kennedy Drive West, making it a local option to consider when planning an outdoor outing in the south end.

Bring a friend, make the scorecard optional in spirit, and aim for an enjoyable round rather than a personal highlight reel. Here is what to know before heading over.

A Smaller Round Without Skipping the Golf

Roseland has two different golf experiences: its 18-hole championship course and its nine-hole par-3 course. The par-3 is not simply a booking for the first nine holes of the larger course.

That distinction matters when planning your visit. Ask specifically for the par-3 course so you are getting the format you intended.

Use the outing to work on controlled shots, practise around the greens and spend time with someone whose company you enjoy. You do not need to turn every hole into a technical discussion about your swing.

For a casual catch-up, agree on the mood before you start. A friendly round is more enjoyable when one person is not treating it like tournament qualifying while everyone else is there for some fresh air.

What Does Roseland’s Par-3 Course Cost?

Roseland’s official 2026 rates list the nine-hole par-3 course at $10, with applicable taxes included. That price is listed separately from the club’s regular nine-hole and 18-hole green fees.

Keep that distinction in mind when checking prices or contacting the club. “Nine holes” and “the par-3 course” are not interchangeable descriptions.

Budget separately for any equipment, practice facilities, food or other extras you choose to add. Recheck the published rate before visiting, especially when planning a round in a future season.

Call Ahead and Ask for the Par-3 Course

Roseland recommends tee times on its website and provides an online booking link. For the par-3 specifically, contact the pro shop at 519-969-3810 to confirm the appropriate booking or check-in process.

It is worth confirming the course’s availability for your preferred day, when you should arrive and what equipment you need. Anyone requiring a particular accessibility arrangement should also discuss it with the club before making the trip.

Leave some room around the outing rather than attaching a tight deadline to your final hole. Ask staff about the expected pace that day, then plan any meal or other stop accordingly.

A shorter format is the idea. Racing through your afternoon is not.

What to Bring for Your Round

Start with the essentials: suitable clubs, a putter, golf balls, tees and comfortable footwear appropriate for the course. Bring water, sun protection and an extra layer when the forecast calls for it.

Sort out equipment before arriving rather than assuming rental clubs will be available. The pro shop can clarify what you need for the par-3 and answer questions about footwear or other course requirements.

New to golf? Consider going with someone who can explain the basics without delivering a running commentary on every shot. Ask staff for guidance on local procedures and keep the experience manageable.

Follow on-site instructions, respect other players’ space and keep the round impairment-free. Do not drive or operate a golf cart while impaired.
