THE BRIARS DIFFERENCE
Private Golf Club
Established in 1922, The Briars Golf Club has been a Membership based, private Club since that time. Over 100 years. That is a long, rich history and tradition. Members and their guests enjoy the quaint Clubhouse, excellent service and premier Championship golf course in a relaxed and friendly environment. The only non-members that can play at the
Club, other than guests of members, are guests of the Briars Resort.
Capped Membership
To many people, and especially the Members, this is one of the best "features" of the Club. We keep a "capped" Membership, which translates into easy tee time accessibility and uncrowded fairways. Every golfers dream! Four hour rounds of golf are not uncommon at the Club. The Club also limits outside events and tournaments, adding to the accessibility to the tees and availability of the Club for Members and their guests.
World Renowned Architect
Originally designed as a 9 hole course by Canadian golf course architect Stanley Thompson, additional holes were added in the early 70's by Thompson's "right hand man" Robbie Robinson to make the course the challenging but fair test of golf that it is today. The 18 holes meander through tree lined fairways and across the beautiful Black River
through a pristine cottage setting environment.
The Reciprocal Program
Talk about an avid golfers dream! Members can play at 14 other private golf Clubs in the GTA. Many of them up to twice per month.
Friendly Environment
Members wait anxiously all winter to return to "their" Club. To see their friends again and to receive a hearty welcome back from the staff and management. To stand up on that 1st tee
and start off another great season at The Briars Golf Club. There is a sense of belonging for both members and staff.
Affordability
The Entrance Fee to join the Club is $7,000 (if a person goes on a multi-year payment plan). This fee further drops to $6,000 if paid in full. This is a one-time fee, with all of this amount going into a Capital Fund. That Fund is used to make improvements to the course and facilities as
required.
After joining the Club by paying the one-time Entrance Fee, Members pay annual dues each year. The Annual Dues for 2023 range from $2,145 to $3,535, with $125 of that going to the above mentioned Capital Fund (all fees are + HST)
Compare these Rates and Fees to other private golf Clubs of the same nature and caliber as The Briars Golf Club and you will quickly realize the Club provides tremendous value. The Club offer numerous Payment Options on both the Entrance Fee and Annual Dues.
Membership Types
The Club offers a variety of Membership types, ranging from 7 & 5 days per week, unrestricted
privileges to three levels of Intermediates (where those Members, if they fall within a certain age category, have full privileges without paying the Entrance fee) to Try and Buy for a year, Member For A Month and Junior and Student Memberships.
