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.

Golf now app

The Vulcan course was fantastic but I booked my tee time using the golfnow app and had to pay a $5.00 fee plus the green fees quoted on the app were misleading as I had to pay $10.00 more the the app said. I will never use this app again

Little wet, but prepared

When we checked in they gave us a cart with a windshield and a cover for your clubs. We had 2 holes that were wet, then sun came out. Very thoughtful of staff to look after us. Because of the questionable weather, we had the course to ourselves, took 2 1/2 hours for 18 holes. Very enjoyable.

Busy, no marshals

Two foursomes in front of us, very slow. No marshalls and they weren't letting anyone play through. Fortunately, it started raining on hole 8 and that got rid of them! Good after that.
