Played here today in their Wednesday club and really enjoyed it. My partners were great company and there was obvious friendship with other members. The pro shop staff were OK, they were busy but certainly not rude. Either I was lucky or some of you were unlucky.

The course itself is in excellent condition, I would certainly go back if time permits. Not sure about the comments re parallel fairways, but today was my first game, and maybe I missed seeing the problem. The greens are also worth a mention, rolled very true and have some nuances requiring local knowledge.

Overall, very happy with my day there.

I played here a few times it’s a nice course pretty tricky
Greens were ok nothing special .. But I would not recommend
Course to anybody as the pro shop staff and management are not nice
People at all very unprofessional and rude I couldn’t
Believe how rude the management was it was a disgrace
They are giving people reasons not to come back. It is a pitty because the
Course is a nice course
I WOULD NOT RECOMMEND THIS PLACE TO ANYBODY

A good layout on the whole & in fairly decent condition.

My only criticism of the course itself was the danger in parallel holes running side by side (sounds contrary to my comments on good layout).

Can’t remember if it’s 1,9,18 all running parallel with only some trees in between…..lots of balls flying over the place on those holes……very dangerous I thought & made worse due to them packing bodies onto the course.

PROS

  • Decent condition
  • Good layout (except the parallel holes)

Cons

  • Parallel holes with not much protection from balls from adjoining fairways
  • Too many people packed onto the course

great course, green are tricky and well maintained. but should have informed the players when making a booking that the green fees is close to be doubled on a Monday, even though it’s a public holiday! Website states $30 but slapped with a $55 green fee.
Proshop staff a little unfriendly, could have been a bit nicer in ways to keep the teeing offs on schedule.

Played there a few days ago and thoroughly enjoyed the round. Had a late tee off so there wasn’t much traffic and it was a pretty quick round. The course has a lot of dog legs and bunkers with a few water hazards which can be challenging. The roll on the greens was very true and the fairways well manicured. I will definitely be back and considering becoming a member. Overall it is a very good course and I would recommend.

Pacific Golf Club is certainly one of Brisbane’s gems. Having become a member earlier this year, I have had the opportunity to play many rounds on the championship course. The fact that these rounds saw many of my golf balls take trips to the beach and have the occasional swim reaffirms the fact that this is certainly a very challenging course, if not one of Brisbane’s toughest. This difficulty, however, will not leave you frustrated to the point where you intend on turning your back on the course for the rest of your golfing life, but rather leave you determined to return for another round to finally conquer the many doglegs, sand traps and troublesome lakes. The course holds up very nicely throughout different weather conditions, with the greens remaining firm and the fairways seldom losing their green gloss. Adding to the benefits of such a fine championship course, there is also a nifty little Par 3 course that can cater for that casual social gathering whilst still providing a challenge for golfers of all skill levels. There is also a club that has a great atmosphere both during course hours and when the sun sets upon the club. It really is hard to believe that such a fine golfing package could be conveniently nestled in the hills of suburban Brisbane. Definitely worth a round and certainly worth the investment of an annual membership!

PROS

  • Fun, Challenging Championship Course
  • Very well manicured
  • Nice Par 3 Course
  • Great Club and atmosphere

Cons

  • Due to its popularity, you may find yourself moving slowly on some of the busier days

I’ve played here a few times over the past few months- mainly as a guest of a new member.

Sure its a nice course, decent greens and layout. But I was left looking for more the last time I played there (Australia Day 2010) when I was charged public holiday rates. I mean, its a nice course, but unfortunately due to a lack of competition in the Sth East they think they’re a little better than what they are. A bit of attitude in the pro shop, and while I’m happy paying guest rates at under 30 bucks, its not worth the 45 dollars charged for walking on weekends/public holidays…

You’re better off getting a deal somewhere off this website- go to Gainsborough Greens or Riverlakes…

This golf course is challenging but at the same time enjoyable, and is perfect for players of all standards. the championship course features challenging dog-leg corners with precisely placed fairway traps. All the greens are extremely well maniquered and looked after. all this just adds to the experience, this is definitaly one of the best courses I have ever played.

Pacific is a challenging course with alot of doglegs. The fairway keepup needs some work but the greens and bunkers a very well kept up. The greens have lots of tears and are very challenging

Wow this is one of the hardest courses and now with the redevelopment of a few holes it is now one of the more beautiful courses in Brisbane. The 16th is equal to any hole on a resort course. The 5th is still undergoing a major upgrade and when finished will be great. You really have to place your shots as the course has several creeks running through it and you have to decide whether to go for it or lay up many a ball was lost in our round. The Clubhouse and the resturant is now 1st class.

Have been thinking about what to write for the last few weeks. Although this is a solid course it just lacks something. Fairways were okay, but cannont remember being excited about them. Greens were well maintained.

No hole really stood out. Not much general beautification around the course, can't remember to many places to sit around the tees.

Enjoyed my round, but would prefer to play Indro, Keperra or Oxley for the same price.

with some more bunkering this course could be very good. good clubhouse and good food. some very tough holes although good players seem to be able to score well here. the key is to keep your driving straight as the trees can block you out on most holes and off the fairway is often oob and water. crucial to miss greens at the right area. was expecting a boring course but was very surprised and impressed.

In the rolling hills of Mt Gravatt the slcik bunker girt greens prompt the deception that this course is worth the land that it occupies. The evil lanky fairways will alude you as your every drive sneaks between the fury pines into the belly of the beast herself.

A screaming six iron from the Valley of Death might restore your faith but when your wedge shot reverses 10+ meters from the edge of the green and finds its way into the water you will swear blind your balls have creekseekers attached. And it seems Mr and Mrs Brook have been quite fertile, spreading their offspring all over the Pacific Pines layout. The subtle breaks in the honest greens may cost you $10 at the last and the evil beast will undoubtedly have the last laugh.

i really enjoyed my round here. The course was in really good shape. the many bunkers around the green made sure anything short was on the beach. The greens were pretty fast but true. Ill be coming back to pacific again soon.

Having played the course in a blue marker challenge, the course was in great condition. The course features several great holes and a very impressive array of bunkers. The greens were a little scrappy but still tended to roll fairly pure. A great day out and I plan on heading back, it's worth the trip!

This course was long, and almost every hole was either a dogleg or had a large water hazard to contend with…sometimes both. The Greens were very fast and even the club house impressed me!!! I HAVE HAVE 2 GIV IT 5 GOLDEN STARS

On the bubble between Handicap strokes? Looking to get 0.1 back but still have a great round of golf? Then this is the course for you.

From the back tees this course rates as one of QLD's best in my view. If the flags are cut tight you may as well forget about producing a score near your handicap.

Highlight holes are 4, 5 & 14 which all feature challenging long tee shots and huge undulating greens. When the wind blows you better make sure you are hitting long irons off the carpet to the absolute best of your ability.

My only critisicm is the sand in the traps. Way too soft! It's hard enough launching 3 iron's at par 3's without getting to the bunker and finding the ball buried 5 inches under the sand.

A great course which rewards great shots and cripples you if you are ogff your game. Well worth a look.

This was the first time I'd played Pacific and it won't be the last. Brisbane had over 6 inches of rain in the week before and it was still raining on the day I played. There wasn't one pool of water lying on the fairways or the greens which remained firm. It is a course which requires both accuracy and distance off the tee. Strategically placed bunkers on the par 3's and shorter par 4's ensured there was no easy pars. While on the par 3's there was only one that didn't require a mid to long iron. Nearly every hole had water in play in the way of several creeks running through the course and a number of well placed dams. The fairway trees are well established and the gardens were immaculate. If your golf is suffering just enjoy the scenery and you forget you are in the middle of a major city. A great course to meet your mates at and enjoy a social round.
