MaraHills Golf Resort
Rating Snapshot
About
MaraHills Golf Resort (formerly known as Hyde Mountain Golf Course) boasts a stunning setting thanks to its location within the hills above Mara Lake, with views that span the surrounding mountains and hardwood forests. Les Furber, a well known name in British Columbia golf, designed this challenging layout. You'll be using every club in your bag and you can't afford to take any of the tee shots lightly. The golf course is routed through dense groves of mature trees and across deep ravines that make for some intimidating tee shots. One hole that exemplifies the MaraHills Golf Resort experience is the par-4 fourth hole. At 483 yards, the yardage may seem strange but you'll understand why it has so much length once you're standing on the tee box, which is perched 200 feet above the fairway. The elevation offers an incredible view but be prepared for a difficult hole from tee to green.

Always a treat to play at Hyde..!!
Always a fun day st Hyde..was a bit damp in places this time because of a torrential downpour the nIshtar before..still had the awesome views and wildlife..if you have a chance to play The Hyde..DO IT..!!
Challenging
Overall the course was in awesome shape. Nestled on the side of the mountain with spectacular views. This course is challenging but always fun to play. Don't pass this one up.
Your feedback is important to us. Thank you for sharing your 5-star experience. We look forward to seeing you again at the course soon! Thanks for choosing Hyde Mountain on Mara Lake Golf Course.
HYDE
Hyde is an amazing course. Scenery is spectacular, conditions were fairly good for the amount of rain we've had. Greens are in great shape and a real challenge. Bring your A game.

Course to ourselves...almost
A cool and wet morning left the course nearly empty for us to enjoy at noon as the afternoon dried and warmed up. Some soggy areas on some fairways and winter kill spots on the greens were to be expected but overall the course was in very good condition. views from several holes are spectacular as some have very elevated tee boxes with the lake in the background. Many of the large greens had challenging slopes and tiers. Always enjoy smashing a drive on #4 from way above the landing zone. Fun to play and my wife enjoyed it too. Had to play around a deer on one hole and a marmot watched us tee off on another. Too bad the house boat snack shack wasn't open that day but I'm sure it will be on weekends and in summer. Enjoy.
Thank you for your kind words! We hope to see you again at the course very soon for another 5-star experience. Thanks for choosing Hyde Mountain on Mara Lake Golf Course.
Great course visually, and staff is very accommodating. We decided to have post game dinner elsewhere but that was only because we tee,d off late this time & sun was going down. But great deck for burgs + bevvies, and the view is top shelf to say the least.

Dr. Jackel and Mr. Hyde
Aside from the beautiful scenic views, the course was in rough shape. The marsh-like fairways, temporary tee boxes and a shared green made for an interesting experience at the course. Hopefully as the seasons goes on the course will be in better shape
course conditions
greens were excellent, fairways were terrible soft and muddy, rough has not been cut this year. Normally a great course but they have opened up much too soon and a terrible course to play cartpath only. Our foursome lost balls on almost every hole because rough was so long we could not find them but we found lots of balls from other players in the same boat. Were never held up but took 5 hours to play from looking and walking back and forth to cartpath. This course needs a month to dry out.
A little disappointed.
I enjoy playing this course, but this round was a little disappointing. The price was great, but the main reason ingredients play Hyde is for the big drop hole. It was closed as well as the next hole. I understand he reasons for closing the holes, but to book the time and drive an hour only to find out the whole course isn't even open wasn't that cool. If GolfNow is posting tee times for courses that are partially open it should be posted to the time. I would've played a course closer to home if I would've known prior to showing up, save time and gas money. In the summer, Hyde is a great course that is super challenging but always green and fun.
Early Play so course was wet
Course was somewhat wet, but expected that with the early open and recent rain
A true Mountain Course
Challenging course for mid and high handicap golfers. Best views on 4, 14, 15 & 17.
Thank you for your kind words! We hope to see you again at the course very soon for another 5-star experience. Thanks for choosing Hyde Mountain on Mara Lake Golf Course.
Soaked!
The course is absolutely soaked. I guess they have had tons and tons of rain. Had to stay on the cart path. Pretty well had to re-drop every second ball because it was so wet where it lay..Too bad because the course and scenery is beautiful.
Amazing Rocky Mountain "Hyde"
Very difficult and challenging course with exceptional scenery/views.
I recommend this as a must play course to all golfers of all levels of capability.

Spectacular course with some major challenges
Course was in good shape, well kept , but played slow from heavy rain previous evening . Every hole has its challenges for the beginner to the pro. It is a fun course to play but be gentle with yourself the first round . Choose your landing spots & try to strategize where to play your next shot . Overall a very enjoyable course to golf . BJL
Thanks so much for the review. We look forward to welcoming you back to our course soon. Thanks for choosing Hyde Mountain on Mara Lake Golf Course.

Fun!
I've played Hyde for years and always enjoy the challenge and scenery. I'm proud to say it's in my backyard. The greens were recently punched and haven't recovered and the bunkers needed turning over.

A Gem
This course is very welcoming, from the pro shop staff to the on course staff.
The course layout provides a challenge from every tee box and the views are spectacular.
The round wouldn't be complete without a visit to the patio to add up your score and take in the view of Mara Lake!
Hello and thank you for your 5-star rating! We're delighted you enjoyed your round. Please book another round with us soon, and thanks for choosing Hyde Mountain on Mara Lake Golf Course!
Fabulous Vistas
Course was challenging, many hidden greens. Greens had serious breaks and elevation changes. Cart is essential and the ride was worth the price of admission. Views were fantastic. You need to play this course several times or have a guide to score well
