The Angus Glen Golf Club consists of two 18-hole championship golf courses in Markham, Ontario, north of Toronto.
The club is built on what was originally a farm for Black Aberdeen Angus cattle, owned by mining magnate Arthur G. Stollery (1914–1994). The construction was completed by his son Gordon and the South Course opened in 1995. The North Course opened in 2006.[1]
Renovations were made to the North Course based on designs by Davis Love III to make it more challenging. Angus Glen hosted the Canadian Open in 2002 (South Course) and again in 2007 (North Course), however, the 17th and 18th holes were played on the South Course.
The name of the course has been used for the community of homes by Kylemore Communities called "West Village At Angus Glen". The community ranges from townhouses to mansions built next to holes 2-5 of the South course and now developing areas around the 6th.
