Since 1958, the Highwood has been the golfer's choice in the Foothills. We have two distinct golf offerings: the championship Highwood 18 and the family friendly Spitzee 9. On site, we also have a full service clubhouse with The Foxes Den Restaurant, the Wellman Room for banquets and weddings, covered patio, locker rooms, fully stocked pro shop, grass tee driving range, and extensive short game practice area.
Our club is known for small town charm, incredible value, and inviting atmosphere. The 18 hole championship course is a par 71 and plays between 5282 and 6568 yards. The course is made up of the nines formerly known as 'New Heritage' and 'Mountainview'. The front nine is scenic and tree lined and can challenge even the most skilled golfer.

Services
Highwood Golf was established as a non-profit corporation in August of 1958 located in High River Alberta, 30 minutes South of Calgary. It is wholly owned by shareholders and is a semi-private facility welcoming anyone to play, dine and enjoy social time in a beautiful, friendly setting. A new 10,000 square foot clubhouse was completed in 2010 and hosts a variety of meetings, events, weddings and celebrations.
Thank you for your interest in the Highwood Golf & Country Club. In 2020, we overhauled our Membership offering. We are currently offering Equity Shareholder Category A Memberships, Category B Memberships and Category C Social Memberships and Passes at a truly affordable price creating exceptional value you will not find elsewhere.
Private lessons are often the fastest way to improvement. Sessions are tailored to the needs of the student in order to prioritize areas of improvement. Semi-Private lessons are 60 minutes in length and are tailored to the needs of the students who prefer to learn with a friend. Group lessons are great for the casual golfers who are still looking to improve but also socialize a little while doing so.
A shotgun format is where larger groups start at the same time on different holes and finish at the same time which is great for coordinating meals and prizes following golf. 18 hole shotgun starts are available after 1:00 PM. 9 hole shotgun and crossover/tee time starts allow for a wider variety of starting times to suit your needs.
Be mindful where the pin is and aim your tee shot accordingly. The shallow green will challenge your club selection and the front bunker catches many approaches. A risk-reward par 5. Hitting this green in two shots is difficult with water left, right, and short. There is a severe back-to-front tilt in this green so try to leave your ball below the hole.

Great course for great price. I've only done the 9 holes with my parents a couple times but it's a very pretty course with fun, challenging holes. Fox den restaurant is good. $9.50 for 2oz cocktails is a great deal to me. Food is not mind blowing but not bad. Good for a snack after playing. Peyton was our server today and she was really awesome, best service I've had in a while anywhere. Thanks Peyton! We will be definitely be back.

I golf here very often (15-20 rounds per year) and have seen some noted improvements this season over the previous few. Carts have been modernized and are very comfortable and amenity-rich. Tee sheet seems more open than previous years, not sure if they are doing less member events or have different booking rules, but it is easier to get a tee time. Course is in fair shape considering time of year, but will need some work as the season goes on.
Persistent issues are members who feel they 'own' the course i.e. driving up on you as you are hitting, hitting into you, complaining about unreasonable

We had high expectations from all the good we heard about service and even the wings being best in town. Sadly the wings looked over cooked and were dry. Maybe the cook was off today however by time the server got around to asking us, we ate most of it due to hunger. As far as service, the waitress didn't seem to care the wings were over cooked and dry and when she came to our table to ask how the food was, she reeked of cigarette smoke so bad I just wanted to get her away from the table.
