club occupies the course on lease from Parramatta Regional Park
Trust.
It is a par31, 9 hole course

seem to be easy to most regular golfers but over the past twenty
something years in which pro-am events have been held on the course
it has proved difficult to break par, the lowest recorded score
being 28

Hole 1
Par 4 336 m
Index 4
A straight drive
down the hill, laying up to the creek which is 45 metres
from the green which is bunkered left and right, a generous
size.
Hole 2
Par 3 124 m.
Index 7
A narrow target
between large trees, the two level green needs a good shot
from the tee
Hole 3
Par 3
180M
Index 1
A long water carry
over the dam makes this a great hole and the tee position
presents a difficult angle. Pull it and there’s out of
bounds around the cottage. Push it and you’re wet. |

Hole 4
Par 4 258 m
Index 9
Uphill all the way,
there is out of bounds on the road for the hook shot,
bunkers up the left, mounds and swales on the right. The
green is bunkered front.
Hole 5
Par 3

Over the entrance

overhead, shrubs and gardens each side of the road and a
deepish bunker in front add interest, the green is sloping
and dished.

Par 4 283m

Downhill with a
dogleg to an elevated green bunkered front and left, the
