Very enjoyable golf course with long and very challenging golf holes. The views of Mt Coolum were stunning from virtually every hole. Pro shop staff were very helpful and the shop is well stocked with all your golfing requirements. Will definitely enjoy a return visit.

But it is a very scenic course with the BIG rock over looking you.
