Course Description
In the spring of 1962, The Royal Ashburn Golf Club opened as an 18-hole facility, and has since developed into a world-class facility, ranked among the Top 50 public golf courses in Canada. Originally opening under the name Whitby Golf Club, the name was quickly changed to Thunderbird Golf Club, as it was known for many years. In the spring of 2000 we changed the name one final time to The Royal Ashburn Golf Club. The name was changed to commemorate our visit from His Royal Highness Prince Andrew the Duke of York in September of 1999 and to tie us into the community of Ashburn, who in the year 2000, were celebrating their 150th anniversary. Hence the name, The Royal Ashburn Golf Club, which is much more suitable to the first-class facility we are today.WELCOME TO ROYAL ASHBURN GOLF CLUBWhether you are testing your game on the renowned Royal Ashburn Golf Course, celebrating your perfect wedding day, attending a corporate event, or just visiting our Butlers Pub & Grill for some great food, we promise you one thing: we'll do our utmost to make your experience unforgettable and beyond your expectations.
