In the late summer of 2020, we decided to renovate the teaching academy and turn it into a fitting centre. The goal of our professional club fitting staff is to promise you an exclusive experience like no other and to guarantee the best equipment for your swing. Whether you are a recreational or competitive golfer we carry top of the line brands such as TaylorMade, Ping, Callaway, Cobra, and Mizuno.
Seasonal opening and closing dates depend on weather conditions. The water park usually opens for the summer season during the first weeks of June and closes after the September long weekend (the first weekend in September). Please check back soon for the exact opening dates. On a hot sunny day our parking lot quickly hits capacity with golfers and park users.

Spent a large portion of our summer here. Love it. Rob gave my boys golf lessons also and he was fantastic. Highly recommend. Tubing is always fun here too.

What a perfect spot for an afternoon by the water on a man made beach. I think coming right at 11 is going to be the best option to get a nice shady location. Beach is clean and great sand for the kids to play in. Tube rentals are completely reasonable.

Very good place for small children. Should be there early for parking and naturally shaded area for picnic.

I can't get over how nice the golf practice facilities are! They have a grass and a mat driving range. There is also a practice bunker, putting green and mini lynx! The staff were very friendly and helped us find our way around. We will definitely be driving down from Wetaskiwin again to test out the actual golf course next time! I can't wait!

Course was in good shape, unfortunately, didn't see beverage cart on the course, we asked in the clubhouse after 9 holes at 6:00 in 28 degree weather they said "oh, she must have gone home".

This place blew my expectations away. I traveled from Calgary to play with a buddy from Edmonton. I didn't know what to expect. This course is so immaculately taken care of. The fairways are cut to perfection and greens are smooth. This course reminded me of BC. They have a great 18 along with a pitch and put for the younger kids. Or a quick little outing for a double date. 2 practice greens and gorgeous driving range

A little crowded, but it's summer time in Alberta so it's understandable. Go early if you don't like crowds. We had a blast! The staff is super awesome and there is a concession if you require snacks. We will be hanging out there more often.

Gorgeous little course down in the heart of the Red Deer river valley. Lots of wildlife and the course was in very good shape for the most part during the 2020 season. Had a membership this year and played almost 60 rounds, glad I did as we are probably moving west of the rockies next spring. They also have a great little 9 hole par 3 pitch and put between 40-80yrds that is great for families and beginners.

We had a fantastic day here. Beautiful course, staff were very friendly and accommodating. Course was well maintained. Fairways were in immaculate condition, some greens need a bit of work.
Overall...good experience.
