Really enjoyed my round here. I can't believe I haven't managed to play it before!

Every hole is unique - no duplicates here!

Greens were quick and tough...

I like that the homes along the property are set back from the fairways a considerable distance - they stayed out of my 'eye' - which I appreciated.

I will definitely play here again!

I played a twilight round solo on a Friday. It was awesome! Teed off at 3pm, finished by 6:45pm. Unseasonably gorgeous weather (27c/80f) made it seem like a summer day and playing 'blind' at a course known for its challenges didn't bother me one bit.

Par is 71 and I scored a 93 so that tells you all you need to know about my game. LOL Nonetheless, the round was just awesome - such a beautiful setting with the big Ponderosa pines lining the fairways. Views of Kelowna and Okanagan Lake add to the experience and I am so happy I was able to finally play this track ($65CDN all in with cart).

Will definitely play here again and by choice, at twilight. Cheaper, less crowded, nature comes out and the best lighting of the day.

I was looking forward to playing with my 2 Buddies but when we got to the course we found out that we were part of a shotgun start intermixed with a 12 hole tournament. There were not enough carts and we had to be shuttled to the range and we were barely able to meet the shotgun start while we waited for a cart. The round took 5 hours and 45 minutes and was painful. The water jugs on the course was empty and when I went into the pro shop to ask for them to be filled out, he said he would take care of it and then charged me for a bottle of water!!! Furthermore when we got to the halfway house the did not have any hotdogs nor ice. I never saw a marshall on the course. The course itself was quite nice...amazing greens but the overall experience was horrible. I did go in and complained and they took my number but I have not heard from either the head pro nor the GM

This course gives you the hardship of playing in the woods but also gives you great views of it's mountainous terrain. Greens are true as well as the fairways. Properly maintained and operated. Highly suggest golfing this course if you're ever in the Okanagan.
