Good Value

A well maintained course that provides good value for money. Walked the course as a two ball and finished easily in 4:15hrs. Greens were quick but provided a good challenge, bunkers well looked after and course overall was in good condition. Definitely worth the money paid, will play again.

Always awesome

Pretty slow moving today but that was okay, perfect weather. This course never disappoints, just long enough for a mod/high handicapper to enjoy. Staff are always accomodating and the bistro after a game is always great for a drink/feed. I’ll be back again.

Lovely course nearby Surfers Paradise

If you are looking for a golf course in Gold Coast, this is it. This is 20 minutes from Surfers Paradise by Uber. Lovely course. Sometime, the play pace is slow, but very enjoyable.

Emerald Lakes

A big thumbs 👍 to the greens keeper & ground staff at Emerald Lakes. The greens were 10/10 just perfect to putt on. The tee boxes looking great too. Fairways in good condition. A nice flat course to walk!

Very slow play

I have played a few times on this course. This time was the slowest play I have ever experienced. Not sure if it was the groups in front of us or if the course was over booked. Hopefully it is better next time.

Enjoyable -conditions difficult - weather

Ground very wet so it was a difficult.

Despite being early and no players set to go one staff member wouldn’t let us go early.

No tee offs for 15 mins but he made us wait.

When we we did go there were groups on our tail.

Very slow olay

This course needs full time marshals because the pace of play is probably the slowest on the Gold Coast. I’ve played here numerous times and every time it seems to be slower. Have not yet seen a Marshall out on course.
