Can be a bit boggy but a nice natural course

@markbishop

$5 per person, eftpos available. Sunday afternoons. We showed on Saturday and learnt that it's only available on Sunday afternoons, but they let us play because there weren't any other bookings and the park was mostly empty.. A couple of the putts were mislabeled/we could not find the starting location. Be prepared to get messy as there's a lot of bush bashing. The trees are quite overgrown on a lot of the putts. Lots of hazards that include long cutty grass, swamps, horse poo, gorse, and muddy rivers and ponds. We had quite a lot of fun with it, but you would definitely want to come prepared.

Hard course, not beginner friendly, basically beatin’ around the bush (figuratively). 😜 Without the app we‘d have never found the tees!

Really poorly maintained and difficult to get around. Disappointing and not recommended. Such a pity as it could be great. Some holes are simply unplayable.

@haydnnz

Great to have this back open to play. Sure it’s not a pro course but it’s worth a visit as it has some great holes. $5 to play. Check in at office before playing. Map available at office but following the App is the way to go.

@w1ll1amvl

Great location, well designed holes with basic baskets. Fairly muddy after wet weather.

Great Course! Love playing here layout has multiple options for faraways, elevation, and open shots Baskets are hand made old school but they do the job.

@austin6004

Great fun course with a few challenges

@csharpeofficial

Poor upkeep but lovely course for exploration and bushwhacking

@ryanwoodfall

Good baskets, grass tee pads, with some pretty tall grass throughout the course. A few slightly confusing/hidden tee pad locations. Some holes have water or mud in play, coupled with the prickles in the tall grass I would recommend pants and boots on this course.

@mikeriley

Epic course something for everyone. Make sure you take your gum boots

@swiftnick

Currently available to play on Sundays for $5 a person. Very wet after rain, bring boots. A lot of animal shit, also helpful with boots. No tee pads and hard to find tees in places. Some interesting shots helps make up for the downsides

@aimee1812

Intense course with heaps of elevation, no tee pads, some signage is awesome others hard to find & very small (1 & 7 just went off app). A lot of over grown long grass, bushes & thorn trees around the baskets to lose your discs. $5 to play.

@benschikker

It is very fun and challenging. I have lost alot of disc's here

@scottparry06

Tee signs are small and hard to find. A bit of water hazard to play around. Baskets have only a few chains. Some holes play through a paddock with horses. Good variety overall.
