Cooktown Country Golf Club

IN: COURSE DIRECTORY | REGION: Tropical North QLD, QLD | USER RATING: (3.0) | Add A Review

Cooktown County Golf Club is a nine hole course, with duel tees. Constructed on a natural sand belt, the course has been built in the tropical bushlands that boarders Walker Bay and the Anan River.

Located beside Monkhouse Point, with the imposing Mount Cook as a constant backdrop, the natural beauty of the surrounds make this links type course a must for golf adventurers and holiday hackers alike.

However, there is a catch to all the beauty. This is the most northern golf course on the East Coast, and the wind in the dry season funnels up from the south east and blows around 20 knots most days.

New irrigation systems augment the natural wet season sprinklers, and tee boxes, greens and fairways are well presented all year round. Free drop from Echidna holes.

My wife and I played the course in a 40 knot wind and thoroughly enjoyed it. The course is in amazingly good condition and the greens are very good. There are some tricky holes caused by the slope in some of the fairways. A very pretty course and very friendly staff who were willing to serve a beer and have a good chat.

Even though its only a nine hole course, it does have teeth especially if the winds up from the southeast. greens are fair and fast with the fairways offering a variety of lies on a sandy base, can be very hot in summer, wild boar diggings can be difficult to play out of (G.U.R) most fairways are fairly narrow and the coure is well spaced out. dont stray offline too far as the jungle is real hard to play out of.Plenty of land to expand . has potential.
