The Howlong Country Club is an excellent winter Golf Course but especially picturesque in the spring when many of the native Australian trees are in flower. The 18 hole course appeals to all ages as it is flat and well drained with fairways and grass greens which are kept in peak condition.

The newly established bowls complex features all year round playing greens. Day or illuminated for night play, the complex has established a reputation in the area as having fine greens set in magnificent landscape surrounds.

The Clubhouse is open 7 days a week, offering regular entertainment.. Dine in the bistro or informally around our barbecue located under a rotunda in landscape surrounds.

Howlong Country Club Motel is situated on the golf club grounds overlooking both the course and bowling greens and is 50 metres from the club house and pro shop.

Howlong is one of the best kept secrets along the Murray River. It’s not the longest course you will find, but it is one of the tightest driving courses I have played. Always in great condition, with large greens, that are generally very fast due to the work of their excellent greens staff. This course tends to surprise most good players as shooting an under-par score here is no easy task. Some of the very large pine & gum trees have been removed over the last few years, making the course much fairer than it was 6 or 7 years ago. A must play.

As a beginner, I look for course that will help me progress with enough challenges to get me thinking like a good golfer. Howlong is it for me. Short, flat but with some awkward moments, I highly recommend it for all golfers, but especially those wishing to feel good at the end of a round

this being my home course i felt i should try to upgrade it from the rating it now has. Howlong is a beautiful course, flat, not exceptionally long but with more than enough distance for a significant challenge for golfers of all handicaps. The first is a straight par 5 that runs along a fence and often enough you may find yourself out of bounds. the first three holes all run along a fenceline and staying in bounds here is the key to a good score. stay out of the tree line for once you are in there there is vey little option but to chip out. Standout hole is for me the 418m par 4 7th. a huge challenge it doglegs slighltly to the left and a par here is like a birdie on most other par 4's going around. truly an awesome country course near the murray river and is 6 times as cheap for membership ( just $55) as other murray courses such as yarrawonga and Howlong.

Over Easter 2005 we decided to journey up from melb to play Howlong and visit the near by Rutherglen region.

The course was in very good condition, with the tee boxes and fairways in particular in great order. Disappointingly, non repaired pitch marks left the greens in not such good repair, especially as you would expect, on the par 3's.

Overall the course is easy to navigate, it's fairwys replying more on dolegs and vegitation than rises and dips. One disappointment however is that the 2md is a par 3, which on the day we played, was causing a slight backlog after the opening par 5.

The clubhouse is functional without being acceptional. Howvere overall Howlong is excellent value for money, it is the chaepest course on the Murray at $13.50/ $20 respectively and is worth the visit and experience.
