Located in the picturesque wine growing region of the Swan Valley and framed by the foothills of the Darling Ranges lies Western Australia’s premier golf course, The Vines Resort.
Course architects Graham Marsh and Ross Watson skilfully and strategically used the stunning landscape to produce championship courses that command respect. Bunkers and grassy hollows are dug to the optimum depth to penalise the errant shot. The landscaping areas on the fairways, for the most part, are generous enough for the average golfer, but a premium has been put on the consequence of finishing in either bunker or water if the ball goes astray.
The 36-hole layout consists of two world class championship courses the Lakes and Ellenbrook. The Ellenbrook Course is available 365 days a year and access to the Lakes member’s course, is available on nominated days throughout the year. The experienced golfers will find plenty of challenge from the championship tees while social players will have as much enjoyment from more generous tee positions.

this was our final course on the back of 7 days of glorious golf in perth! Vines lived up the the hype. A beautiful course set in the swan valley. The course was friendly off the tees with ample room for mistakes. Big greens and not too severe undulations. Water does not really come into play very much. Course was well groomed even after the greens were sanded a few weeks earlier. A very good pro shop too boot in as well.
