Originally there were 9 holes, some of which criss-crossed each other. The first 18 hole layout was designed by R.Stewart and L.Cocks and was completed mainly by voluntary labour in 1952. In 1956 a larger clubhouse was built and members were asked to contribute an extra 10 shillings or a bag of cement. In 1958 the club bought the present property for twenty thousand pounds and again with a lot of voluntary help the 18 hole course was ready for playing in July 1959.

Extensive development of the course and clubhouse facilities has occurred since that time to create one of South Australia’s finest golfing and social locations.

Can be a tough course if you are wayward off the tee, quite tight on some holes, as other have mentioned there are numerous holes with OOB down one side due to fence lines. 1st and 10th tee shots can be punished severely due to them being atop a small hill. I have had tee shots roll unfairly into rough due to landing them in the wrong spot, so I would say there are a few holes that can punish a good tee shot. In general the course is well presented, and in good condition considering the traffic it seems to get. Most saturdays see a full field, as well as sundays. The front nine is the best of the two, with only the 15th hole adding any variety to an otherwise straight forward layout. Favourite hole of mine would be the 8th, a reachable par 4 that requires a precise tee shot and a accurate approach. Worth the $30 visitor fee

This is also my local course and it is probably the best course anywhere north of Adelaide. It is a very demanding course and ensures that you have a very true handicap. Some holes are quite tight and there are enough trees to make life difficult if you don’t keep to the fairways. It is a great course and well maintained and I thoroughly enjoy being a member.

This course is my local course. It's a members only, and very strict. Plenty of scooters with bags in the back around here. Before my first round here, members kept trying too scare me away by saying it was extremely narrow, with small greens. Some fairways are tight, but if you can hit a fairly straight drive, you should alright. The greens are a mixed bag. A couple are small, but most are a decent size. All are a challenge to putt on. This course was cut out of pure Australian bush, so trees are everywhere. If that isn't enough, at least 6 holes have a water hazard come into play, and another 4 have OOB all the way down one side. The front 9 is by far the better. Plenty of variety. The back 9 is very much the same. Except the 15th hole. A blind downhill tee shot, then a short iron over a big dam. 1000's of balls must have been lost in there. It looks like plenty of work is about to begin on the back 9, so expect big improvements. Follow the rules of the club, and your sure to have an enjoyable round.
