The Best Golf Courses in New Brunswick
Posted in: Blog, Tours & Activities by admin on July 30, 2010 | No Comments
While there are many golf courses in New Brunswick, chances are, if you are in New Brunswick on vacation, you’ll want to play on the best courses the province has to offer. According to Golf NB, there are four Signature Golf Courses in New Brunswick, namely Kingswood Golf in Fredericton, Royal Oaks Estates & Golf Club just outside of Moncton, the Fox Creek Golf Club in Dieppe, and the Fairmont Algonquin in Saint Andrews. All of these courses are located in the southern part of the province, and it is certainly feasible to visit them all on a New Brunswick golf vacation. Personally I think I would stay at a hotel in St Andrews by the Sea to play at the Algonquin and Kingswood, and then find accommodation in Moncton for Royal Oaks and Fox Creek.
