Our 18 hole golf course offers exciting challenges and has sensational water views of the Brisbane River. We are just 15 minutes from the Ipswich CBD and 25 minutes from the Brisbane CBD.
With the new 12 berth marina, what better way to spend the day than to sail up the river and hop off your boat for a game of golf.
We also have a very warm and cosy restaurant that we hire out for weddings and functions and a wonderful chef, who will tailor his menu to suit almost any budget.

Played 18 yesterday. Good value though online booking!
The developer’s application has been submitted to Brisbane Council, but it is far from approved. The locals are fighting hard to save the course! GOLFERS UNITE! Anyone can object to council to block the closure, so when the submission time comes up, send in an OBJECTION!!

To address some previous posts – the place isn’t deserted waiting for the bulldozers. There is a part time pro (which is the same method of operation as the last couple of years). There are 2 greenkeepers and they are mowing the fairways lower than ever, which makes for more roll & crisp irons.
The course in general is short, hilly, fast and tricky. You need to be precise or you will be punished (prehaps unfairly), but thats the nature of the game. Shot shaping & pre-shot thought is required. With summer storms the bunkers do get knocked around, and aren’t as fluffy as some, but it is green & lush.
It’s a challange that needs accuracy and not the driver every hole.
