St. Igance Golf Club

St. Ignace Golf Club is a public 18-hole parkland course in Saint-Ignace, New Brunswick, designed by Geoffrey Cornish and opened in 1975. Stretching 6,541 yards from the back tees to a par of 72, it occupies a stretch of heavily forested, rolling terrain typical of this corner of the province.

Cornish's routing makes full use of the land's natural contours, threading fairways through stands of trees and over a landscape that rewards accurate positioning off the tee. The standout moment comes at the 11th, a long par 3 where players must carry a stream to reach an elevated green enclosed by trees on all sides. It's a hole that demands both club selection and commitment — misjudge either and the forest or the water collects the ball.

At just over 6,500 yards, the course is accessible to a wide range of players, though the tree-lined corridors and elevation changes mean that raw distance matters less than control. Golfers who shape the ball and manage their approach angles will find St. Ignace more rewarding than those who simply overpower flat layouts.

Saint-Ignace is a rural community in southeastern New Brunswick, making this club a natural stop for golfers travelling the region or passing through on a broader Maritime road trip.
