The Ashburn Golf Club has two 18 hole courses that combine convenience, variety and challenge. The old course with its undulating fairways within the city of Halifax, was designed by the noted Canadian golf architect Stanley Thompson and opened in 1922. The "new course" opened in 1970. It is nestled in a wooded area overlooking beautiful Kinsac Lake in Fall River. Designed by Geoffrey Cornish, it features large tees, fully watered fairways and manicured greens. Ashburn's new course was rated among the ten best courses in Canada in 1989.

This course by the sea was established in 1962 and famous for its windy conditions. One of the toughest tests of golf in the Maritimes, the front nine holes are cut through a forested area, but the back nine holes are of a links style, mostly open area and treeless. There is an abundance of wildlife make it popular with bird watchers.

Designed by C.E. (Robbie) Robinson in 1962, this was a long and wide open course. A tree-planting program in the mid-eighties and recent green reconstruction have changed the original character of the course. The signature hole #13, is named "Waterloo" and most of its 138 yards is water, and home to a family or two of geese.
