Purcell Golf

We love this course so much we decided to take a membership. We definitely recommend it to people looking for a beautiful Kootenay golf experience.

The course exceeded our expectations. Great condition and friendly staff. We experienced an incident on the course that required a response from the staff. They were very professional and went above and beyond what we expected. A special shout out to "Mike" whose assistance was much appreciated.

From Edmonton this course was awesome, towering trees line every narrow fairway making the course difficult despite its shorter yardages, there were 3 tee options strongly recommend green tees for anyone shorter than 190 drives. The greens were in immaculate shape when we were there late August, and rolled slow as it had just been sanded, but were true. The front 9 is very walkable but the back 9 is a hike so get a cart if you have any issues with that. Back 9 is more difficult than front but each hole unique. They had a signature bonus hole between 11 and 12 that was excellent, with a great view down to the river and a very funky green with massive slopes. If you are the type to spray your driver bring lots of balls as this is not an open course for the most part. My only complaint was that hole eleven lines the driving range to the point there was so many balls, we lost one that leaked left because there were so many range balls there. I have yet to play other courses in the area so perhaps this course is mediocre compared to them but it was still a great course with a high difficulty demanding good tee shots nearly every hole.

Love the people here. Treated me so well after illness recovery. It’s what makes a course great. Will now come back with son and his golfing friends to this course for sure!

Starter was a man who clearly enjoyed his job. He joined the crew after our round for a beverage. The vistas on this course are top shelve. I am a little hesitant to see how much the course will change with the school coming.
