Tallwoods is a course well worth visiting and staying the night at the great accommodation. The course is well set out with a variety of holes and many challenges to all levels of golfer. I quite nejoyed the long par 5’s and the shorter par 4’s which provide a challenge to make good scores. Best to play early in the morning before it gets too hot otherwise it is a long course even with carts.

Tallwoods indeed. This place is a great setting with tree lind fairways and a very relaxing feel. The only problam is the layout is surrounded by massive hills with the course lieing at the bottom af a massive ridge – what does this mean? Well when it sprinkles the course is very waterlogged & when it pous the course is shut for many days whilst it drys out. I played after 2 days of medium rain and the back nie was closed to play so we plyed the front 9 twice – not what i payed full price for half a golf course. I cut my stay in the area short by 2 days and travelled a few hours up the pacific highway to a place called Bonville. They had had the same amout of rain if not more and i managed to play with carts on fairways and all 18 holes. The two properties ar apples & oranges with Bonville being 5 star & Tallwoods 1 star. I hear Bonvill will soon have houses to buy on site & let me tell you get in quick as they will sell like hotcakes.

This is the most enjoyable course I have played. Over 3 years I have played it 6 times and leave knowing this is a little known golf haven. The greens are quickish but high quality and fair. Fairways are always in excellent condition. Great variation in holes. It is a real “thinking” course that rewards for getting it right but too cruel when you get it wrong. Photographs from the course would make a great calendar, only trouble would be to pick which 6 to leave out.

Simply an awesome design , this course is one of the most strategic ad scenic courses in Oz. Each hole is memorable I played it once only but can still vividly remember each hole and it's subtleties. Every hole is a challenge either from the tee or on the large immaculate and sloping greens. I have heard someone say that when the greens here are fast it is like Augusta, while this may be an overstatement I get the picture. I played Bonville the day prior and Tallwoods absolutely kills it.

If you get an opportunity to have a golfing holiday, go to Tallwoods.
The course is just great with a good mix of holes where trees and water come into play. I walked it with a carry bag but can understand why most go in a cart, the inclines on some holes are huge.
Great condition and always room to fit in by yourself or with the fabulous members. Great pro shop and the food is top class. You won't be disappointed.

Still a young course by many standards but with 8 years under its belt Tallwoods is developing into a spectacular course.
There are 5 tee positions on each hole which make the course play significantly differently depending on individual skill levels. Being only 3kms from the coastline, the prevailing NE or the occasional southerly change makes for plenty of variety.
Greens are now in magnificent condition holding superbly but the undulations and tiers along with a quite fast speed make putting a daunting challenge.
Par 5s appear short - but they are uphill all the way with tight greens, tiers and if you miss the green start looking for the lob wedge.
Postcard views down the coastline from the tee on 4, 14 and 17, water on 8,10,11 and 18 holes, and well maintained fairways make playing here a pleasure.
Unless you are a fitness fanatic, take a cart at least the first time so the hilly terrain doesn't take its toll and you enjoy the day.

what a gem of a course. this course is very young i can see when it gets older holding major events. very hilly, you will need a cart. some long holes with well positioned water hazards to catch you when your not thinking. greens from memory are fairly fast rolling and require good touch. give this course time to grow and it will be majic. be sure to check out the views from up top before playing or after. they are incredible.

Tallwoods is now accepting green fee players, so don't overlook it as a golf option.
You tend to get seduced by it's appearance, and think the actual golf is better than it really is, because almost every hole gives a golfing postcard view from the tee. It's not quite as scenic as Bonville, but it's close.
The actual course is a fair test, without being overly penal. Looking at the card, you'd think the Par 5's are a snack, between 420 and 470 metres, but they are all severely uphill. The Par 3's are very strong, and mostly spectacularly downhill holes where deep bunkers await at the front and big slopes if you go over the back.
The fairways are reasonably generous, and on most there is plenty of room on the good side, so there is no reason to battle with the 'bad' side. The couch grass was in good nick, and gave good lies every time.
The greens are mostly big, with a few swales and tiers, and were good to putt on, if just a bit slow.
While you can walk it, a cart is recommended, as some of the hills are quite steep, particularly when climbing to the tees.
$50 bucks on a weekday is good value.

A thoroughly enjoyable golf course. Quite different to a lot of other resort courses in terms of layout but this is by no means a detraction. Beautiful scenery, flora and fauna, etc. Highlights for me are the 7th, 8th, 11th and 17th holes. Definately worth playing – excellent value for money!
