History

Grande Meadows Golf Club, located on the north side of Burin Peninsula facing Fortune Bay, is the most southerly course in the province. The 9-hole course was designed by Robert Heaslip, who also undertook construction supervision. The course is built on a peninsula of level land with the Great Garnish Barasway bordering five holes around the perimeter; ponds and marshland come into play on at least two more holes. [2]
