Trickle Creek Golf Course

Shopping - Golf -Tour

5.0 of 5 starsReviewed September 8, 2017

Only for a large shopping 110 kilometers drive - for Europeans unthinkable.
There should be a round - there are nine places in the Kimberley-Cranbrook region.
Trickley Creek is the destination - Top 40 in British Columbia. Even from a distance when you arrive you can see the shafts in the woods - carved for the lifts and the ski slopes.
Also for the golf course was neat forest cleared.
The small town lies at 1100 m, the place even higher. Up to 20 years ago, the world's largest zinc and lead mine was in this region.
The result is a very demanding, very good but also sportive golf course. Up and down the mute. The holes are mostly straight, apart from two right-angled doglegds. A number of fairways are strongly down-valley, are well-diced to strong.
Just Drives and second strokes are a must to place the ball correctly. A place of bruises punished, have left many balls left.
The mostly large greens are well defended, the Par 5 especially. They are very good to play - but very tricky - have fun. Large and very well placed bunkers are waiting.
A superbly maintained course, with a nice smaller clubhouse overlooking the 18the Green, has saved our golf holiday. Nice staff.
Hole 14 is the signature-hole, a par 3 downhill, 214/174/152/116 yards, with a great round view of the wooded hills.
Hole 10 is mentioned in the book by Jeff Barr, 1001 Golfholes - the best golf holes in the world. It is a nice and good hole but rather short 333 yards baked.
So go shopping - 15 km to Cranbrook.
