The Falls Golf and Country Club

 

The Falls Golf and Country Club has been described as British Columbia's best kept golf secret, but that's about to change.

Rising 750 ft. above the Fraser Valley, The Falls is a dramatic 18 hole, 6,817 yard par 71 layout - and one of the most exciting new courses in Canada. The panoramic views of the Fraser Valley, Mount Cheam and the Coast Mountain Range are upstaged only by the sheer beauty of this masterpiece.

With 340 beautifully treed acres, waterfalls which cascade over 100 feet, free power cart use and an average of 5 sets of tees per hole, The Falls will captivate and inspire any golfer - from the casual player to the most experienced pro. Set between giant rock outcrops and rugged west coast beauty, The Falls offers immaculate, undulating and inviting fairways, strategically placed hazards, generous landing areas, and greens so true you'll know you're in a golfer's paradise.

The Falls features five exceptional par 3's, all worthy of top billing. The fourth hole is particularly striking: it's 9 tee boxes allow the hole to be played from 116 to 229 scenic yards and from two different angles.

The Falls was co-designed by Ted Locke and Rick Wellsby. Ted Locke has established himself as one of the preeminent golf course designers in the Pacific Northwest. This commitment to excellence is illustrated by the fact that The Falls was Western Canada's first soft-spike golf course.

The Sandpiper Golf Club

The Sandpiper Golf Club, heralded as one of British Columbia's best new resort courses. Along side the Harrison River, framed by the rugged backdrop of Mt. Woodside, Sandpiper Golf Club is a spectacular resort golf course; it is forest golfing at its finest. Eagles, sandpipers, salmon and other wildlife are an everyday part of this magnificent course.

Thanks to Canadian course designer Russ Olson, golfers at Sandpiper enjoy two distinctly different environments - the open fairways alongside the river and the quiet serenity amongst the ancient 180 ft. Douglas Firs. The surrounding beauty isn't the only feature that keeps golfers coming back; the course is an easy, pleasant walk and player friendly.

Many golfers reserve their stay and play packages months ahead of time with Rowena's Inn on the River. For a truly peaceful escape, couples can seclude themselves in one of the cozy guest cottages, nestled in the trees along the 14th green.
