Lush fairways carve through the sand that was once the riverbed of the North Thompson giving way to dunes that transform into vast waste areas and challenging bunkers. The Dunes is proud of being tournament ready every day, with each fairway leading to a meticulously groomed green. This championship course meets the needs of any level of golfer offering a variety of tee boxes to suit any desired level of difficulty. Come test nature’s golf course

Every time I play The Dunes I enjoy it immensely. Just was a bit chilly and windy today. Not bad considering it was Oct 24th.

Nothing like fall golf!

Beauty day at The Dunes. Not super busy so we had our own pace and enjoyed the weather and the course. It is in good shape and very walk-able which I always appreciate being able to do! Hope to get at least one more round in while the weather is good!!

Hot day

weather was hot! Course does not allow outside drinks. No drinking water on ANY holes. No refreshment cart what so ever. The only opportunity for water was after 9 holes at the club house.

Hi, Dave. Thank you for reviewing the course. Let us first start by apologizing for the poor experience you had during your visit. Your feedback about water on the course is important to us. As we begin 2017, we are working to develop a better way to provide our guest with refreshments. British Colombia has restrictions on water fountains, water coolers, and plain old water on golf courses. These rules, unfortunately, have our hands tied with providing drinks on the course. Our beverage cart does not run on Mondays which keeps this from being a solution for your poor experience. Because of your feedback, we are going to start providing free water bottles during check in on hot days that do not have the beverage cart running. We also want to address where you said the “Course does not allow outside drinks". We do allow outside drinks. We do not allow outside alcoholic beverages. You are welcome to bring your own bottled water, Gatorade, or another refreshment that is alcohol-free. We are glad to see you rated everything else to be great during your game. We will continue to work towards an excellent experience by using your comment for guidance. Thank you for playing The Dunes at Kamloops, we hope to see you again soon.

Beautiful day on the links

Greens and fairways were in prime shape - it would be nice if people repaired their ball marks though. The tee boxes were pretty hacked up from a big Tournament that happened on Friday and should be moved asap. It is a shame they cut that par 5 on the back nine in half because of the houses - it was a much stronger hole then. Played the course with a friendly retired couple on carts in less than 3 1/2 hours, so pace of play was ready golf practically. The rest of the holes are a fair test, and quite enjoyable. Friendly staff and players, and a nice summer day with not too much wind, which always comes up after about 2 pm. I highly recommend this course.

First time at The Dunes

Interesting course with some challenges for the weekend warrior. Course was in excellent condition and played well. Pace was a little slow for a busy afternoon but weather was great so only a minor inconvenience.

Hi, Robert. Thank you for reviewing the course. We appreciate the 4-stars and are interested in learning what we can do to earn 5-stars next time. We are glad to hear you enjoyed the challenging layout. We apologize for the delay of play and think with all the great weather, golfers seem to have found their way out of the wood work and onto the course. We cannot complain but we will pass your feedback on to the team in charge so you don't notice next time. Thank you for playing The Dunes at Kamloops.

Great course. Less than average B.C. spring has all courses a little behind where they would normally be at this time of year but overall a very good day. Other than my score.

Relaxing day

Course in good shape considering the weather lately. It looked busy when I got there thought here we go 6 hour round, but once we got going there was no waiting. Pace of play was perfect for me, I was walking. Met some really nice people, had a great day.

Dunes is in great condition this spring

Booked on golfnow in the morning for an afternoon tee time. The fairways and greens were in great condition this early in the spring. The pace was great. We were a twosome, finished in 3 hrs . Staff were very friendly. Would play this course again.
