Course Highlights
The contrasting layout — a tight, tree-lined front nine paired with a links-style back nine — consistently draws praise from visiting golfers. Exceptionally friendly staff and impressive course conditions make this Southern Alberta gem a strong value for the drive.

Vulcan Golf & Country Club sits on the outskirts of the town. The layout sprawls across gently rolling terrain accented with stands of mature trees. The course measures to just over 6,300 yards from the back tees. It's gentle enough for beginners but also great for more advanced players who are looking for a casual round that can be played in less than four hours. The golf course starts with a gentle front nine with water only coming into play twice. Don't be lulled into a sense of comfort though, the course becomes progressively more difficult, culminating with the signature 18th hole. Water appears again on six holes on Vulcan's back nine, including on the final par-3 hole. Water borders the entire left side and there are also a slew of bunkers protecting the large green.

Greens pretty slow

Fairways are in pretty good shape considering the time of the year. Greens are still pretty fuzzy and therefore quite slow. Prices have doubled from last year, cannot ascertain why, but that's now an issue.

Great Value

It was a good experience. The wind really blew on the back nine, predicable in this part of the world.

We'll be back

Incredible value for the money.

We just returned to Vulcan after a 2 year hiatus and we are glad we did. Not only are the staff friendly but everyone is. This an example of rural Alberta at its best. You owe it to your self to go play a round.

First time out

Nice course..once the weather smartens up and the watering begins. It will be great to play..A little gem of a course. Love that they have a budget this year to improve the club house.

Greens are quite inconsistent/slow

Start of year, fairways are sparse and greens are very fuzzy and slow. Price is almost double last year, no idea why? Not worth it.
