Perched high above the majestic St. Lawrence River, Fairmont Le
Manoir Richelieu Golf Club follows the scenic lay of the land, creating
a superb, thinking golfer’s course. Inaugurated in 1925 by
former American President William H. Taft, Fairmont Le Manoir Richelieu
is a rambling, tumbling 18-hole creation that offers an unpredictable
par-71 layout–you’ll need a cart to cover the 6,225-yard
course. The journey includes significant elevation changes on almost
all the holes. Grandiose vistas can be savoured from every tee.

Fairmont The Queen Elizabeth reigns over Montréal’s
vibrant cultural center. Golfers can satisfy their golf cravings
at the gorgeous Les Quatre Domaines, a Graham Cooke-designed course

park.
Le
Diable
Long fairways meander through the heart of a red pine forest,
punctuated by fiery red sand traps that guard the greens. It’s
easy to see why this beautiful and entertaining championship course

#2, #6 and #15. The devil’s own hole is a never-ending 600-yard

sweeping vistas from every hole. Look for trouble on the tough par-4,
492-yard 8th hole.
