I have to agree with the person below me. Played on 30 March and loved it. The course is in great condition other than 2 greens which were clearly undergoing maintenace.

Great staff, good bar and had a super hamburger on the turn.

Greens were in better condition than pelican waters.

I would have to say that on a pure value for money basis this was the best course I played all week – brookwater gets the overall tick for the wow factor.

You wont be disappointed.

Best course on the sunshine coast by far. Don’t even compare it to headland horton park is streets ahead. A+!

The course is in good condition. Nice Couch Fairways and greens. It is pretty tight and the holes are’nt overly long but is a nice layout. The best holes are 14 and 15, which run alonside a large lake that comes into play. In my opinion the best non-resort course on the Sunshine Coast. Friendly members and staff. But be quick, the Bulldozers are moving in around 2011 when the Course Re-locates about 5km west where 2 new 18 hole layouts will be built through some old Sugar Cane fields.

Played Horton at their recent pro am. Greens were incredible having only been renovated 5 weeks prior. Rest of the course was also in very good nick, could no fault condition. Dissapointing last two holes to layout. lets hope the new one is better and in the same condition. well organised day, a credit to the club.

Played the front 9 at 6am with a mate.

If you can hit the ball straight, you will be fine. A very flat course that is currently having a fairway and greens upgrade. A very interesting thing I found at 6am was that the greens were faster than the fairways. I always find it the opposite at every other course at this time, so keep that in mind.

Good course in the centre of Maroochydore. Green fee at reasonable price but green fees for 18 holes should be cut by 5 bucks.

Good course with lots of water and bunkering, watch out for the rough and enjoy the ride!

I played this course in August during a week of golf on the Sunshine Coast. We both wished we had played it earlier in the week rather than as our last game as we both enjoyed it. The course was in great condition and a credit to the greens staff. As with most courses it is easy if you hit it straight but there is plenty of trouble if you stray. Certainly the best value course we played during the week and we hope to play it again before the club gets moved on.

This is a good average members course. Very flat and a little uninteresting. Anyone who rates this as 5 star has not played a trus 5 star golf course - don't be fooled!

If you are on the sunshine coast, this is a "MUST PLAY" golf course. i have played other private courses on the sunshine coast like Hyatt and Twinn Waters and Pelican but none matches up to the condition this course is in. The greens are better, the fairways are better, its cheaper, and most of all, the course wins best course in rural queensland. the course is in that good condition because the green keeper wins best green keeper award every year. You can warm up for your round on the full size driving range and warm down with a $5 drink voucher at the 19th. how can u go past Horton Park Golf Club?

Probably the sunshine coast best kept secret.Voted QLD regional golf course of the year 2005.Both nines a good test of golf .Usually blowing a south easterly in the afternoon taht can get quite strong. Greens and fairways immaculate,and miss the fairways you are in thick rough proving testing at best.Nice and flat for walking with a great mix of holes especially 12,13,14,15 being the best 4 holes on the course.If you have a AGU handicap try the swan challenge on the first monday of the month it is an open comp and $25 comp and green fees is great value.The 17th and 18th an anti climax but still require good shots to make a good score.Great track that has you thinking and using most clubs in your bag .Worth the trip.

One of the little gems. Frustrating as all hell, especially the last three holes. When the wind blows, you will struggle. I played the course several times on holiday and have to say as a Kiwi - the greens were fast, but then all the greens were fast compared to NZ in Winter.

I enjoyed it and would recommend it at $33 a round and a $5 booze voucher given back to you!!

Horton Park is worth a round if your heading to the Sunshine Coast, but not before the better known courses have been played and the likes of Headland and Caloundra tackled. It's a mix of recently renovated (past few years) holes and the older more established holes. There are some good holes to play 4, 6, 12 as well as 13 and 14 probably being the two best holes on the course. Unfortunantly there are some weak holes which let the course down overall.
