Cheap Golf in Toronto: 8 Great Rounds Under $50
You don't need a member's badge or a big budget to play a good round near Toronto. Here are eight courses that stay easy on the wallet — with live prices, so you see the real number before you book.
Updated July 8, 2026
Toronto has a reputation for pricey golf, and if you only ever look at the marquee clubs, it earns it. But the city and its edges are quietly stacked with honest, walkable, well-kept tracks you can play for less than a nice dinner — a couple of them right off the subway line.
This is our running list of the best cheap golf in and around Toronto: municipal favourites, tidy executive courses for a quick nine-and-out, and a few full championship layouts that dip under fifty bucks once the sun starts dropping. Rates move with the tee sheet, so every number below is the live cheapest round we can find right now — not a price we typed in last spring. Walk-ons welcome; bring cash for the halfway house.

Don Valley Golf Course
4.2From$48· 18 holesThe people's course. Tucked in the ravine off Yonge, it's central, genuinely well-kept, and hilly enough that you'll earn your beer at the turn — one regular calls it the best cardio in the city. If you want a real round in Toronto proper without the sticker shock, start here.

Frequently asked questions
What is the cheapest golf course in Toronto?
Dentonia Park in Scarborough is the cheapest round on this list — an 18-hole par-3 course that regularly opens around $20, and you can reach it on the subway. For a full-length course inside the city, Don Valley and Centennial Park are the best-value bets.
Can you golf for under $50 near Toronto?
Easily. Every course on this list can be played for under $50, and several — like Lakeview, BraeBen and the Toronto municipals — come in well below that on weekdays. The trick is timing: rates drop in the afternoon, and twilight is where the real deals live. The prices on this page are pulled live, so you can see the cheapest round available right now.
Where can I play cheap golf in Toronto without a membership?
All of these are public or municipal courses — no membership, no initiation fee, just book a tee time and show up. Toronto's own municipal courses (Don Valley, Dentonia, Tam O'Shanter, Humber Valley) are open to everyone and among the cheapest in the city.
When is the cheapest time to golf near Toronto?
Weekday afternoons and twilight — roughly after 3 to 4pm — are almost always the cheapest, when courses discount to fill the sheet before dark. Early weekday mornings can be low too. Weekend mornings are the priciest, so skip them if you're chasing value.
Prices update automatically from each course's live tee-time availability, so the numbers above stay current. Every price links back to the course page, where you can verify it and book.
