A really lovely and very challenging course this one! set in the towering shady gums out of town, with the kookaburras calling in the background, its darn near worth the trip just for the walk around. the course itself is made challenging by a large very deep creek separating a number of the holes and others being stepped part way down the fairway making the continuation of short drives tricky by making the pin invisible. majority of the fairways are very long but mostly straight so long drives are reccomended. all in all I would be surprised at any golfer who didnt enjoy a day on this lovely green course and at $4 is extremely cheap.

Measures 2851m Par 35 with two par 3s ranging from 98-121m, six par 4s ranging from 337-407m and the 486m Par 5 7th/16th.
There are 9 black soil scrapes with Rocky River bissecting the course. There are alternate teeing ground for holes 3/12 to 8/17 and only the 407m 4th changes par when playing from the back nine tees to a 441m Par 5 13th on the course.
There are some synthetic tee grass on concrete square blocks here with $5 fees. Although, some may have low expectations of what is a golf course, I am not sure how it can rate 5 stars which on this website is "golf at its absolute best" as its scrapes indicate a 1 star "basic golf facilities" on this website.
Laura is a small town of nearly 600 people approximately 260m above sea level.
Course access is 5km north of town, turning into Combre Road off the B82 approximately at 280m above sea level, closer to the village of Stone Hut than to the Laura township itself.
Closest grass green courses can be found at Burra or Clare.
