About
Lacombe Golf & Country Club opened in 1925, but the site has roots in golf that date back even further to 1910 when golfers would use the former cow and sheep pasture to hit balls. It has undergone many changes over the years but the layout still retains its classic character. The golf course is situated along the PEII, midway between Calgary and Edmonton. The par-71 layout is routed through dense groves of mature, towering trees. They loom above the fairways and provide a backdrop for nearly every hole. When the trees are combined with the golf course's small, undulating greens, the layout becomes a true test of your accuracy. In addition to the golf course, Lacombe also offers a driving range and a practice putting green with a bunker.

Sand traps
Sand traps are skirted with plywood. If your ball is near the edge you cannot play it. The greens have a lot of winter kill as do the fairways.
Fun Course to play
Always a challenge and fun to play. Unfortunately the greens suffered substantial damage from the winter but should improve later in the season.
Lots of challenging holes and worth playing
Thanks for the 4-star review and great feedback on the challenge of the course. We appreciate your patience & understanding as our staff works towards more improvements on our greens, but we're looking forward to a great golf season ahead. Join us for another round at Lacombe Golf & Country Club again soon! #GolfLacombe

The course seemingly didn't winter well, despite the fact that we didn't get a whole lot of snow over winter. The cool weather to this point has done nothing for the winter kill on the greens.
Overall, it's an enjoyable course with some tough par 3's.
Course has had significant winter kill greens are pathetic. Nobody in our foursome enjoyed Lacombe and all of us have played before.
We appreciate you taking the time to leave us a review, however, we are truly sorry to hear you recent round with us did not meet our usual expectations. We can assure you our staff is committed to providing our golfers with a valuable experience, but we apologize if this was not the case on the day you played. Your comments on our greens have been shared for any potential improvements, but we appreciate your patience & understanding as we move into the golf season ahead. We hope we have the chance to welcome you all back for a much-improved round soon.

Lots of winter kill
Hole 1 was closed, green was to bad to use. They are doing a lot of repair work on sand traps and greens. Course should be quite good in the next 2 to 3 weeks with some nice weather!!!
Thanks for the 3-star review and taking the time to share your feedback with us. We appreciate your patience & understanding as we work to get the course in its best condition, but we hope you still enjoyed your day with us at Lacombe Golf & Country Club. We look forward to having you back again soon! #GolfLacombe
First time there and would go back again. From Tee to Greens it was is excellent condition. Off the Blue tees the course shows its teeth on the back 9 with challenging Par 4's and long Par 3's. Highly recommend it. Course wasn't busy at all for a Sun. and disappointed they made us wait to honor our Hot Deal Tee-time, didn't get the logic of that.
Good Time
THe course is in good shape.... challenging, varied and fun.
Great course
A challenging but great course, could’ve have used a Marshall to keep the pace of place. Overall a fantastic course.
