Established in 1951 at the Loxton North location the course has been progressively developed by Club Members from their own financial resources over the years. The course was laid out initially by members and then changed in 1963 after Vern Morcom, then curator at Kingston Heath, was consulted for his design skills. In 1976 Brian Crafter from Adelaide designed 18 grass greens and most of the original greens still exist today. They are regarded by many top golfers as the best greens outside Adelaide for their consistent borrow and quality.


Lush irrigated fairways consisting of Kentucky Blue grass are inter-sown with couch to provide a high standard playing surface all year, although, the course usually reaches it's peak during the winter season. There are sand bunkers on 10 holes and a varied range of grassy mounds on the surrounds of most holes.


The course has an abundance of mature Aleppo Pine, various gums and other shade trees lining fairways and surrounding tees. Over 500 smaller trees and shrubs have been planted over the course by members more recently.


The practice fairway is located adjacent to the car park and practice chipping and putting greens are well established. The course is open 7 days apart from major events. Light traffic/immediate access most days.


Extra water allocations have recently been purchased enabling us to water fairways from 150m to greens ensuring you a great game of golf.
