Parkes Golf Course

Redesigned parkland golf among the trees and slopes of regional NSW

Parkes Golf Course is an 18-hole, par-73 public parkland course measuring 5,874 metres in Parkes, New South Wales. The layout was redesigned in 2023, featuring undulating tree-lined fairways of Kikuyu grass, TifTuf couch tees and pro USG Bent grass greens. Facilities include a driving range, putting green, pro shop, restaurant/dining, coaching, plus cart and club hire with on-site parking.

Set among trees and gentle slopes, Parkes is widely regarded as one of regional NSW's most enjoyable golfing destinations, and players consistently praise its picturesque grounds and well-kept condition. Visitors travelling the region often single it out as a course they'd happily return to, and reviewers who knew the old layout report being impressed by the 2023 redesign and its new green complexes. The strategic, undulating design rewards thoughtful play, while a friendly team, stocked pro shop and dining round out the experience. Some feedback suggests the clubhouse itself feels dated and could use a freshen-up, though the warmth of the welcome and quality of the course tend to leave a lasting positive impression.
