Whaleback enjoys a reputation as an approachable, well-maintained course suited to players of every level, and reviewers consistently note that it has been getting better in recent years. Many players single out the two-storey driving range and the practice chipping and putting areas as standout features, while the café draws repeat praise for its food selection, value and friendly service. Visitors often comment on the course's good condition despite heavy traffic, with ongoing refurbishment frequently mentioned.
