Job description

Lora Bay Golf Club sits between the shores of Georgian Bay and the Niagara Escarpment in Thornbury, Ontario. Our championship layout plays from 5,100 to 7,100 yards and is recognized for its setting, its conditioning and the quality of the experience we deliver to members and guests.
