A short drive from Byron Bay, this course has built a reputation for a relaxed, country-club atmosphere and a famously friendly welcome. Players consistently note its walkability across mostly flat ground, along with the scenic views toward Mt Chincogan and the surrounding farming paddocks and wildlife. The layout offers multiple tee options to suit all abilities, from forward tees for juniors and seniors to back tees for those wanting more of a test. Many describe it as something of a hidden gem on the Northern Rivers, with the upstairs clubhouse bar overlooking the closing holes a popular spot to wind down after a round.
