About the course
Al Howard parkland championship layout with lagoon views in Rockhampton
Rockhampton Golf Club is an 18-hole, par-71 parkland course in West Rockhampton, Queensland, measuring 6,038 metres. Designed by Al Howard and established on its current site in 1920, it is open to the public and features 37 mapped bunkers. The layout is designed to be played from the fairways and accounts for the prevailing south-easterly wind. On-site facilities include a pro shop, clubhouse, and restaurant/dining, with views over the surrounding lagoons.
Regarded by many as the region's premier course, Rockhampton offers a fair but demanding test with narrow fairways, water in play, and enough length to reward accurate ball-striking. Players consistently praise the conditioning, noting greens and fairways that hold up well, though some feel a handful of bunkers could use a little more attention. Visitors regularly highlight the friendly staff, easy tee and cart bookings, and a well-regarded clubhouse where the food at the turn earns particular mention. With social tees positioned for fun yet still challenging for competitive golfers, it suits everyone from casual hitters to event players. The overall impression is of a welcoming, good-value club that has been steadily improving and rewards thoughtful play.
