Derrydale Golf Course is a public 12-hole executive course at 185 Derry Road West in Mississauga, Ontario. Its current layout plays to par 40 and measures 2,541 yards from the Blue tees, with White and Red options at 2,326 and 1,938 yards. Derrydale changed to its present 12-hole format in 2010, becoming the first golf course west of Toronto to offer the public a 12-hole round.
The course contains eight par-3 holes and four par-4 holes, with no par 5s. The club states that water comes into play on eight holes and that the layout contains 26 sand bunkers, with mature maples, pines and weeping willows around the course. Derrydale is family owned and remains open to public play, with tee times booked directly through the pro shop.
The course is a 12-hole executive golf course. It plays to par 40, 2,541 yards. It is open to the public. On-site facilities include Pro Shop, Club Hire, Golf Cart Rental, Pull Cart Rental, Practice Green, Chipping Area.
The golf course occupies property on Derry Road that has been associated with the Holmes family for decades. Local Mississauga historical reporting states that the Holmes family purchased the property in 1951 and later established Derrydale Golf Course there. The club remains family owned.
Derrydale's own social-media account marked 50 years of golf in 2020, but the available official material does not give an explicit original opening date, and one golf directory instead lists 1968. Because those records do not align cleanly, an opening year has not been assigned here.
The defining feature of modern Derrydale is its unusual 12-hole format. The course argues that 12 holes occupy a middle ground between a nine-hole round and the cost and time commitment of 18 holes. The current par-40 routing measures 2,541 yards from the Blue tees and consists of eight par 3s and four par 4s.
The club describes water as being in play on eight holes and counts 26 bunkers across the layout, with mature maples, pines and weeping willows framing the course. No named golf-course architect could be verified.
The most significant documented change came in 2010, when Derrydale reconfigured its established course into the current 12-hole layout. The club describes itself as the first course west of Toronto to make a public 12-hole round available and as a pioneer of the format in the Greater Toronto Area. The change was presented as a response to golfers who wanted more than nine holes without the time and expense associated with a conventional 18-hole round.
Derrydale continues to operate as a family-owned public golf course in Mississauga. Tee times are booked by calling the pro shop, currently up to seven days in advance. The club publishes Blue, White and Red tees ranging from 2,541 to 1,938 yards and offers adult, senior and junior green fees.
Its facilities include a stocked pro shop, rental clubs, powered and pull carts and short-game practice facilities. Players must complete a liability waiver before participating; the same Derrydale Golf Course Limited waiver also covers visits to its related Erin Heights Golf Course.
