The City of Windsor is moving forward with exciting plans to construct the new Roseland Golf Course Clubhouse, aiming to incorporate current golfing trends into the design and construction of this future golf course amenity.
Roseland offers an 18-hole golf course designed in 1926 by renowned golf course architect Donald J. Ross and constructed in 1927. The property is the centrepiece of the Roseland Park subdivision. The course itself was designated under the provisions of the Ontario Heritage Act in 2003.
The new Roseland Golf Course Clubhouse concept was created by GGA Partners, an international consulting firm and trusted advisor to many of the world’s most successful golf courses, private clubs, resorts, and residential communities. GGA Partners was retained to develop Roseland’s Strategic Business Plan (2019), oversee public consultation on the project (2020), and complete the Clubhouse Feasibility Study (2021).
Approximately $5.7 million is available through the City’s 10-year capital plan for Roseland, with funding to support demolition of the existing clubhouse, site servicing, temporary arrangements for staff during demolition and construction, and the design and construction of the new clubhouse.
Design elements for the new facility will include:
Increased focus on golfing and the golf course
Smaller footprint for the physical building, at approximately 5,500 square feet
One floor
Building oriented towards the golf course and putting green, preserving the putting green and blending seamlessly into the broader site
A move towards covered outdoor seating, in place of traditional indoor seating
Convenient, grab-and-go style food and beverage service
Upgraded washroom facility
Storage facilities and an administrative area
Residents, golfers, user groups and stakeholders are invited to attend an in-person public open house to learn more about the proposed clubhouse design concept and engage with project team members. Those interested can also participate in an online feedback survey which is coming July 31, 2025 and will be open until August 15, 2025.
A Public Open House will be held on Thursday, July 31, 2025 from 3pm to 7pm at the Clubhouse. Roseland Clubhouse is located at 455 Kennedy Drive West, Windsor. The Open House will be a drop-in format with display boards and project team members available.
The proposed concept will be reviewed at a future City Council meeting.
