I played this course last summer and it was a typical fine, hot day on the Tablelands. The course was getting pretty dry being near the end of summer, but the occasional storms mean there is still greenery about and the overall conditioning was fine.

The course is a par 72 (36 36) layout with ACR 70. It’s an open country parkland style course with mainly a line or two of eucalypts bordering each fairway so not much difficulty. Only a few hazards dotted about the 18 holes, so a fairly easy scoring course. No real standout holes.

$25 green fees seem a little steep for a country course but given the attention to course conditioning, not unreasonable. Also, given the proximity to Cairns where everything is inflated due to the tourist market (especially the green fees) it’s fine.

If I’m staying in or passing through Mareeba again I’d happily play here again.

i played this course a couple of times on a recent holiday to mareeba to see my brother. with the unsociable hours i play(love me 5am tee offs!) i went solo and would have loved someone to rave about it to. my 2 year old son is always up then so ill take him next time! beautifully green, simple layout, for someone like me who hovers around the 100-mark it was a treat. i hit an 86 on the second day! there are tons of kangaroos but they tend to congregate so only in the way on one or two holes. the key is to bring your straight game with you. you'll get the course to yourself if you go early, just remember the honesty box to pay green fees! only hazard here is the pre-programming of the watering of greens, you'll be lining up a putt and all of a sudden youll get a cannon of water squirt at you! i look forward to me next trip up north!

Measures 5977m Par 72 with 4 Par 3s ranging from 140-175m, 10 Par 4s ranging from 280-390m and four Par 5s ranging from 470-515m. Course lacks thought in planning and options off the tee. Some holes are short and most greens are bunkerless.

Highlights include 355m Par 4 3rd with dogleg left with lake on the dogleg turn catching any short cutters mishits and OOB on the right.

Played here 26/7/06 and paid $25 green fees on this flat and slightly boring layout. Probably more the social and beginners.

Considering the annual rainfall on the tablelands, the locals must be wondering where the next decent fall is. Unfortunately the fairways were nearly as dry as home in the Central Highlands.

Combined with a flat, back and forth layout, and no hidden perils, the dry meant plenty of run and only lots of gum trees and kangaroos to negotiate.

This 20odd handicapper had a shocker but still managed a halfway respectable score. Having fairways to either side of most holes encouraged getting out the big fella and having a lash.

No holes stick in the memory however the sound of golf ball on tree lingers.

Hire carts available.

The Relic.

Being the only eighteen hole course on the Atherton Tableland makes this course a must on any tableland visit.

The course is open and relatively flat but a challenge to all players. The greenstaff here do a fantastic job and the clubhouse has full facilities.

There are wild kangaroos on the course and prolific wildlife.

An enjoyable course in a cool tropical climate within an hour of Cairns International Airport.

ENJOY..
