Sadly, our beautiful restaurant is now closed due to the ongoing crisis of staff shortages. The Club hopes to re-open the restaurant at some point in the future. Due to the HIGH fire rating and dry course conditions in the fescue and surrounding areas, we have implemented a NO SMOKING policy on the Salt Spring Island Golf Club property, including the golf course and driving range.
This is a temporary measure until the fire risk is significantly reduced. It is our top priority that our golf course, neighborhood and surrounding community stays safe throughout these very dry months and we appreciate your ongoing support and cooperation. Masks will be mandatory in all areas inside the Club House.

The Salt Spring Island Golf Club was established in 1928 by residents eager to have a course on the island. Before regular ferry service, reaching one of the three golf courses on lower Vancouver Island was a near impossibility for Salt Spring islanders.
As one of the oldest courses in western British Columbia, and the longest operating course in the Southern Gulf Islands, the golf course exemplifies Salt Spring Island's transition from agricultural outpost to a recreational and retirement haven.The natural terrain from its days as Barnsbury, a sheep farm, are fundamental to the course.

The Salt Spring Island Golf Course is a beautiful, modestly challenging 9-hole, 3037 yard, par 36 course of undulating fairways, water features and mature forests, with the north east slopes of Mount Erskine providing the backdrop to many holes. Consisting of two par 5 holes, two par 3 holes and the remainder par 4's, the course covers 70 acres of rolling terrain.
At the Salt Spring Island Golf Club, our Dress Code goes like this. For golf, smart casual is all we ask and we are a soft spike facility. For the disc course, more casual attire is acceptable. For both courses, jeans are acceptable on the course and in the clubhouse. Tank tops, mid-riff or halter tops are not allowed for women; muscle shirts or tank tops are not allowed for men.
Welcome to the Salt Spring Island Golf Club and thank you for considering a membership - we're glad you're here. Our Club is much more than golf, it's about people.
