Mandalay Golf Course
Played On 11/25/2017Welcoming and friendly staff
The day started well with a warm greeting by the friendly staff in the proshop followed by a good coffee in the cafe / restaurant again manned by friendly and welcoming staff.
The course starts gently with a short par 4 where the approach if not treated with respect can bite hard and whatever you do dont miss left. The course itself was in great condition with generous fairways with thick covering, greens protected by strategically placed bunkers with safe bail out areas being short, the greens were fast and tricky but rolled truely. If you want to score well best you make hay on the par 5's as the par 3's can beat you up especially the very challenging 15th. A nice finishing hole where if you rip a drive up the centre you will have a wedge in hand giving you a chance to finsh the round off with a birdie.
Once the round is completed head to the cafe or restuarant for casual or formal dining. I had the club sandwhich which I would highly recommend and if your not driving they have a good selection of beers, wines and cocktails.
Easy access off the Hume Freeway means if you are travelling up from Melbourne it does not take as long as expected. Also if your heading down to Melbourne for any reason bring your clubs as it would make a welcome pitstop.
Overall experience was very positive and I will venture back soon
