The golf course, being situated in the heart of Tropical North Queensland, lives up to the town’s slogan of “green like you’ve never seen”. The Clubhouse and carpark are situated on the Bruce Highway on the northern end of town beside the Showground/Racecourse complex.
Relatively flat except for holes 1/10 and 9/18 which are gently sloping up to and away from the Clubhouse, the course is an easy walk for all ages. Being so well established, the course provides abundant shade via huge kauri pines in the open sections and rainforest trees or large stands of bamboo in the more challenging holes.
The spacious timber “Queenslander” style Clubhouse has a fully licensed bar, poker machines, pool table and covered balcony with outdoor barbecue overlooking the 1/10 tee and 9/18 green. Go to the Group Bookings page for more photos of the Clubhouse

A good simple no frills golf course. I played the course after a 6 week lay off and scored well. Fairway width is generous with an out of bounds left on the dogleg 3rd (stops hitting along the 4th fairway). Greens are small and fairly true. the thick thatched Buffalo grass roughs perch the ball welland allow the ball to be pinched off the top. The green keeper tells me the course is much harder in the wet season with the fairways not allowing roll and the rough longer and tougher. Green fees are by the honour system and cheap. Banyan Creek wanders through the course and the steep reedy banks eat balls.
