About the course
Volunteer-run 9-hole par 35 parkland course above Waratah
Mountain Vista Golf Club is a public 9-hole parkland course in Waratah, Tasmania, playing to a par of 35 over 2,627 metres. Maintained by volunteers, this well-drained layout overlooks the town towards Mt Bischoff. A $15.00 all-day greens fee applies, and facilities include a pro shop.
Visitors consistently describe Mountain Vista as a tough but enjoyable little course with a welcoming, friendly atmosphere. Reviewers note its quiet, scenic setting, the mature old trees, and the local wildlife, including platypus in the dams. As a course maintained entirely by volunteers, its upkeep can vary, and players mention the greens present a real challenge, yet the genuine character keeps the experience rewarding. The relaxed social side earns plenty of praise too, with a twilight nine and Friday-night beers a popular routine among regulars.
