About the course
Quirky country golf in Owen, where a fairway crosses the main road
Owen Golf Club is located in Owen, South Australia, Australia. The course is a country layout featuring scrape (sand) greens, with one hole that plays across a main road. A local water tower stands as a recognisable landmark by the course.
Visitors tend to remember Owen Golf Club for its laid-back, distinctly rural character rather than manicured polish. Reviewers consistently describe it as fun and unique, singling out the novelty of a par 4 that crosses a main road and the water tower that doubles as a landmark. The scrape greens and no-frills setting give it a genuine country feel, and the general impression is of a welcoming spot where players seem happy to be out on the course. Note that it's reportedly a seasonal venue, with play centred on the cooler winter months. It's the kind of place that charms through quirk and atmosphere more than championship conditioning.
