About the course
Windswept 9-hole par 72 on Tasmania's east coast at Coles Bay

Visitors are consistently surprised by how interesting this volunteer-maintained course plays, with players noting good greens and acceptable fairways kept in solid condition.

Beyond the golf, the spot earns praise as a quiet, spacious place to stay, with a clean club house and friendly staff frequently mentioned. The camp ground is well regarded as a self-contained option, though guests note the lack of water and the brisk pace of cars on the access track.
