Mollymook (Beachside course) measures 2090m Par 33 with four par 3s ranging from 106-172m, four par 4s ranging from 230-302m and the 422m Par 5 5th.

This 9-holer still has no tee number or hole distances on the tee mounds but is easy to follow. The front and back nine uses the same tee mound with no change to the distance or par of the front or back nine tee mounds.

1st/10th – 230m short Par 4 with an uphill teeshot over the Riversdale Avenue road to a long and narrow bunkerless green.

2nd/11th – 116m slightly downhill teeshot with a bunker short left.

3rd/12th – 302m slight bend right and slightly downhill teeshot with a pond 230m off the tee on the right and then plays slightly uphill to a bunkerless green with the OOB Golf Avenue far right.

4th/13th – 299m straight hole over a gully with a fairway bunker 200m off the tee on the right to a green guarded by a bunker short right.

5th/14th – 422m the only Par 5 on the course with a pond 200-240m off the tee across the fairway which then plays slightly uphill to the 30m long green guarded by a bunker 20m short left and another 10m short right with OOB homes on the right near the green.

6th/15th – 106m easy 30m long bunkerless green surrounded by homes.

7th/16th – 150m probably one of the best par 3s with an elevated teeshot to the green below which is heavily bunkered rightside by 4 bunkers.

8th/17th – 293m uphill slight bend right with OOB Riversdale Avenue on the right to a bunkerless green.

9th/18th – 172m the longest and most challenging par 3 with another downhill teeshot over the Riversdale Avenue road to a green with a bunker short left and the beach as a backdrop in the background.

Course has fairly well maintained kikuyu grass fairways and rough with a short tree-lined fairway layout. The small-to-medium sized bent grass greens are generally flat and slow. There are 4 unbunkered holes with a total of 10 bunkers on the course. All flags are visible from the tee mounds.

There is always the possibility of golf balls landing on your fairway here as the course is frequented by the beginners and less frequent golfers.

The Ulladulla urban area has around 15000 people and is located 65km (or 45 minutes) south of Nowra.

Played here 27/12/11 with $17 green fees for 9 holes. Course access is from Golf Avenue at the Mollymook Golf Clubhouse. Great clubhouse and good ocean rock views on the 8th tee and beach views on the 9th tee.

This is a good little course. Has a good layout and is well maintained. It has a good mix of holes to challenge all types of players.

I know this course has no pretentions to being a great course – 9 holes, no long holes, fairly badly maintained fairways, but it doesn’t even have the basic golf facilities. The tees don’t have anything to tell you which tee you’re on! I guessed the pattern the greens would follow, and confirmed by checking the distance on the scorecard with the rough distance I could see.

No distance markers either.

Very poor course.

Mollymook GC’s Hilltop course is excellent though.

PROS

• Very near the beach and motels, reasonably scenic

Cons

• No tee numbers
• No distance markers
• Fairly badly maintained

Take a 7iron, a putter and 6pack. This is not serious golf but a casual seaside place to have a hack and socialise. If you enjoy it depends on what you came for.

It all comes down to expectations. Keen or accomplished golfers head to Hilltop as you'll be disappointed here unless you're after a round where you're more interested in finishing your stubbies than finishing your follow-through.

There's no doubt it's a nice setting, and generally the condition of the course is okay. However there's not a lot of interest in the design (the par 3 seventh is probably the most interesting hole - a shortish iron skirting a large gum to a semi-blind but large green), and the furriness of the always-elevated greens makes for some putting frustrations.

I often worry about the safety of courses such as this - there are several holes where you're on one fairway and you are in real danger of being hit by an errant tee shot from an adjacent hole. To me, good social courses take account of the lower standard of players and make for a safer design.

Great little 9 hole course, every time iv'e played there the course is in amazing condition considering the amount of traffic it takes. 4 par 4's 4 par 3's and 1 par 5.all the holes have some sought of character whether it be bunkers or water hazards, or small hard to hit greens. Well worth a quick round, perhaps before tackling the intimedating hilltop layout. jackstarone.
