The Bridges at Claresholm Golf Course

Big difference between front and back nine greens. Back nine were quite slow. Other than that, course is in pretty good shape.

Pace was great until we hit 16, then needed to wait a few groups to finish off. Was windy at the start but manageable until we hit 15 and it picked up. Last holes were difficult to play in.

Pace was good until we hit 12. Apparently, there was a foursome of men that were more interested in partying than playing golf. They had about 8 groups backed up. On 16, there were 5 groups waiting to play. first nine was good though.

First nine very slow. There was a very slow 4some holding up 4 groups. After 9, decided to do the front 9 twice instead of waiting forever for this group. Course is in pretty good shape, they've done a lot of work by the ponds, clearing away the long grass, etc. Greens are in good shape.

Loved this course for the price ! worth the drive from Calgary

Course was in reasonable shape considering we are just starting the season. Greens are quite slow. Started behind an older couple who let us through on #4 and it was clear sailing until 17. Until then, it was great! No idea which group was so terribly slow, but there were 4 groups waiting on 18. Glad we didn't catch up earlier.

Course in very good condition this early in season. Greens slower but to be expected this early.

Course packed but good pace of play. Just over 4 hours for 18 holes

The Bridges at Claresholm Golf Course is a short detour off Highway 2, offering golfers a rewarding experience in southern Alberta. Established in 1978 as a nine‑hole facility, the course expanded in 2005 with a back nine designed by Les Furber, transforming it into a full par‑72, 18‑hole parkland layout.

A perfect summer morning was greeted with scattered clouds, blue skies and warm temperatures. After a smooth and friendly check‑in at the pro shop and a quick warm‑up on the range, the round began on the 1st tee.

This course showcases wide fairways, strategic bunkering, large contoured greens, and several water hazards that demand thoughtful play. With five sets of tees on each hole, golfers of all skill levels can find a challenge suited to their handicap. The front nine is framed by mature trees, while the back nine opens to the elements, creating two distinct playing experiences.

Course conditioning would be above average, fairways appeared to be consistently maintained, bunkers were groomed nicely and the greens rolled true and at a nice pace throughout the round. There are a number of holes (1, 7, 11, 16) that rated high on the fun factor. Hole 18, is a fabulous 525 yard, par 5 that zigs and then zags it's way to the clubhouse. A marvelous closing hole that capped off the entertainment on the back nine.

A visit to the fully licensed restaurant after the round complimented a great morning of golf. The Bridges at Claresholm Golf Course will satisfy any golfer's expectation of a great product for a reasonable price.

Pace was great. Greens were very slow so took some time getting used to them. Did not see beverage cart.

Beautiful course. Lives up to its name. A lot of water, a lot of sand, a lot of fun.
