Great course, very happy with the lay out, and service was really excellent.Played with couple of members which was a big help.But the markers on sprinklers and 150m,100m markers where still enough to help you out.Played off the back tees which was a really good challenge.

The course was not heavily booked but even so the pro shop team was very helpful and looked after us well.

Course had experienced tremendous rain over the previous week or so. We had sunny weather. Carts were kept to the track but the drainage had worked very well and the course was in extremely good condition considering.

Nice. Everything about Noosa Springs was "nice". Nice course. Nice staff. Nice round. Everything was nice except for the weather. It bucketed down from about the 4th to the 11th and having belted down for two days prior to my round the course was in remarkably good shape.

Had to keep the cart on the cart path which makes for a lot of running between the cart and the ball which wasn’t much fun but with the amount of water on the fairways, completely understandable. Not super long with most holes being a 3 wood off the tee and short iron into the well maintained greens.

The greens weren’t as fast as I like but again I imagine they hadn’t been cut for a while given the rain, no massive break in any putts either, but I had a solid day with the rental Odyssey White Hot #1 which came with the rental bag of Callaways ending with 27 putts. I wouldn’t have minded taking that putter home with me actually.

Water hazards around the course make for some really good looking holes even if the water doesn’t come into play. Well placed bunkering off the tees really makes you think about club selection and markers on the tees indicating the distance to carry water means you can blast away confident that you’ve got enough club. Often when you play new courses, I find you have no real ability to judge the distances, so the markings were really helpful. When the sun poked its head out on the 17th it made for a couple of lovely holes to finish the afternoon. The 17th in particular is a really pretty hole with water down the left side.

I payed for the twilight round via iseekgolf and spent $75, the standard rate for 18 is $120 (as a member of a highly regarded club in Victoria which only charges guests half that for a round, I think $120 is a bit much.

Given the fact that there was only a couple of other groups on the course maybe others agree or maybe most people just weren’t keen on the weather forecast), add in $60 for what must be a 3-4 year old set of Cally’s and it’s not a cheap experience. Then again this is Noosa where nothing comes cheap.

The best money is $2.50 for the course guide which was a fantastic help around the course. You can easily do without it as there are markings on the sprinklers which dot the fairways as well as 100 and 150m posts, but the book is nice to have and makes you feel like a Pro even if you’re game doesn’t match.

I play off 10 and played to my handicap off the blue tees which I was pretty happy with given the rental clubs, the conditions and a couple of dumb shot decisions, so it’s a good test and a lot of fun.

I was the closest thing to being a ’hacker’ off 16 but myself and my palying partners (both off 13) found this layout most challenging. I would recommend this couse to any serious golfer.

Probably the nicest course I have played on the sunshine coast.Not having to fill in divots was an unexpected surprise. The course was challenging but not too long. Will definately play there again.Par 4’s easily reachable in 2, even when teeing off with irons off the back markers and the par 5’s were nice and long.

I played noosa springs today. Started at 3.30 on a sat arvo and got the $85 twilight rate incl cart. Place was dead and did not catch any other groups until the 17th. I played alone and managed to fly thru the round. Course is very good, fairways were immaculate and the greens were firm and fast. Very well set out and was a good challenge. Good mix up of holes and some long par 5’s. 9 & 18 are both long par 5’s that play back into the usual easterly wind. Overall I really enjoyed the course and will definitely play again.

I played this course on saturday with tough wind conditions. I found the course to be in excellent condition with good fast greens. It was my first round ever at Noosa Springs and given the challenging layout it was interesting the first time around. Long hitters will eat this course up, I made the green in regulation nearly every hole even with strong headwinds and I play off 20. This course offers something for golfers of all abilities, overall an excellent resort course which will have me coming back.

Fantastic course to play on… Provided you pay the discounted price through iseekgolf. If i paid the full price i would certainly want half of it back.

It is a great course, very challenging. You will have a fear of water by the conclusion of your round if you did not already!!!

Hit straight you will have a great round. Most holes will allow good chances for the shorter hitter, which means it will entice all types of golfers.

A long hitter will have a chance at every par 5 to reach in two.

I would love to play this course everyday, good service from when I arrived. the course was is in great condition with the best fairways I have played on. I feel if you can hit straight off the tee you will get a good score. had a ball..

Course was in great condition but the service was apalling. For $120 a round you would expect that the staff but would be at least courteous. From the greenkeepers to the drinks cart lady all we got was attitude and down right rudeness. I wont play there again on principle. Twin waters or the Hyatt are better courses and the service is great. I dont mind paying top dollar but I expect a good all round experience if I do.

Nice Course and Layout. But to me its overpriced. Fair share of water to lose the ball in.

Played the day after qualifiying for the PGA. Played off the same tees. The course was in excellent condition. Greens and fairways were true after the rain. Shorter than most championship courses I have played but still a test because position of the tee was all important. A yardage book or map in the cart would have really made it easier. Most international couses now provide yardage books for you.

A very pleasant course to play but no real signature hole. The 3 different tee markers offer a sufficient challenge for each standard of golfer.

Very good course. played here at the end of 2007 and it was in fantastic condition, fairways were pretty pristine, as were the greens, which were a lot faster than i was used to. the service was also great; me and my brother arrived late, and we had to meet up with some other mates who had already teed off, and the bloke in the club house was very understanding and quickly arranged an electric buggy so that we could catch up to our mates. also the we came across the drinks cart about 3 times during our round which was good considering it was about 35 degrees.

i also thought the price was pretty reasonable considering some of the prices of other courses in the region. Overall a very memorable and great course which is one of the best on the sunshine coast

Played in mid 2007, Great practice facilities and a majestic club house, restaurant etc. I think this raised my expectations of what the course was going to be like. I played Emerald Lakes in Jan 2008 and would rate the course, service from the pro shop just as good if not better than Noosa Springs. Still a great experience and would play again.

19. BuggeraCup | Rated | 18 Jan 2008 | Add A Review

This is a nice course that is always presented in perfect condition. It is fun to play and is not overly long or difficult. Good scores can be had for the good players if you keep the ball on short stuff which is mostly generous. While it is a nice course in beautiful surrounds I found many holes that felt quite similar and certainly none with the “wow” factor in terms of design or strategy. The clubhouse and facilities are first class as is the service. In all, a nice course in presented in great condition but probably a little over priced at $110.

Played here Nov 2007. Found all staff happy & helpful. Course was in excellent condition. Although only paid $88 would gladly have paid full price.

I played this course last week ans it was in immaculate condition. The course is not overly long but there is plenty of trouble if you miss the fairway. Would definitely recommend it to anyone visiting the Sunshine Coast. The clubhouse is also one of the best in Australia.

I recently played this course and I would have to say that it is one of the nicest courses I have played.

It was picturesque and the design is such that it is challenging but still enjoyable to play.

23. jspicer | Rated | 14 Nov 2007 | Add A Review

Enjoyed the round but think it was a bit over priced at $110. Greens were in good nik buy visually not as impressive as I though it would be.

24. brownie19 | Rated | 30 Sep 2007 | Add A Review

This would have to be in the top 3 courses I have ever played. Challenging, faultless course presentation and good course management. There was not an inch of ground that wasn’t lush green. Fairways/rough were in fantastic condition. Greens were nice and fast.

It is not overly long as mentioned before (5900 ish), but what it lacks in length it makes up for in course design. More than enough tricks to get you thinking.

The course was fairly full, with groups of 4 in front, but still only took 4 hrs. This seems to be a rarity of late with a recent round at the Glades taking 6 hrs.

I was very impressed with this course and will definitely return.

Very good golf course, with great facilities. I would rate just below Hyatt and Pelican but above Twin Waters. Not too long but still a challenge. Have played half a dozen times and is always in great condition.

26. buggerman | Rated | 21 Oct 2005 | Add A Review

Probably in my sojourn, the course I liked the most - price aside. It is expensive - but probably the nicest of the 3 in the area. If you haven't played here before, try to play with a member. Directions and distances can be confusing. The greens were very true - but very fast for us lot from across the ditch. I thoroughly enjoyed the course and as an 11 handicapper had more than enough challenges.

Would lkove to play again, but my Bank manager says I have to save the money, he won't lend it - bugger!~~!

A typical reort course, all well laid out and geared to create a special experience which they do very well. The course has lots of challenges but nothing too intimidating if you play with your head when required. Greens were great, so true and 100% consistant. There is enough water for a challenge but its not over board.

The absolute golden rule on this course is keep it on the fairway, spray and you will certainly pay! Unfortunately a lot of rain in preceeding days meant most fairways were water logged requiring a towel to wipe water and dirt off most of your body.

Great course, yes a bit pricey but you feel like you got value for money.

If it's all about the experience for you, this course makes every one of the $110 per round count. Greeted at the door, your clubs are effortlessly whisked away and mounted on the drive cart you can choose not to take but not to waive the fee for. The starters, rangers and miriad of additional staff are polite, accomodating and make you feel like you own the course. Then you tee off.

Three of the hardest holes get you started and personally by the fifth I was feeling like I needed some more loving from the staff. The front nine is tight and long, and you pay a penalty if you trade distance for accuracy. But the fairways and greens are manicured beautifully and if you keep your concentration you can walk away feeling good about a challenging and beautiful course. I'd recommend it thoroughly...it it were only a little more affordable!

If you are looking for a exceptionally well presented course thats fun to play without requiring 270 metre drives on every par 4 then you will certainly enjoy this. On the down side the designer has done well with limited space, but some holes feel a little cramped.

The 4th is a sensational little par 3 and the 4th is a great short par 4 but It doesnt have what I would rate as any classic golf holes. But for a fun day I would certainly recommend it. The 17th is also a great little par 4 that requires a well positioned tee shot and the right yardage for the approach. You only need driver on 9,15 and 18, so if you like playing a course that doesnt need prodigious length off the tee, you love it. But big hitters beware, if you stray from the tight fairways it will gobble you up!

At $110 a round perhaps the most overpriced of the Sunshine Coast's courses. Don't get me wrong this is a good course, it just doesnt stack up against the likes of Twin Waters at only $80 or Hyatt Regency at the same price. The course is always in good to great condition and has some really interesting water carries for the adventurous golfer, with the best stretch of holes coming through the middle of the back nine.
