Challenging and Fun

Very friendly staff, took the time to talk us through the course with advice about how to play a couple of the holes. Lots of opportunity to practice uphill and downhill stance. Greens and fairways were in good condition, although recent days of heavy rainfall resulted in some standing water. Thoroughly enjoyed the course.

One of my favorite Kamloops courses

Always enjoy a day at the Dunes. Very affordable, especially when nailing the discounted tee times through GOLFNOW. Wish more Kamloops courses would be on it. Hopefully the Dunes gets the first hole temporary green back in order. Disapointed the food and beverage cart didn't make an appearance. Was happy with the course, weather and score...was a good day!

Great Value

I booked on Golf Now, great price for 18 holes, it's a good walk around for 18 holes, especially carry you bag. From tee to green, there are few holes that can cause you problems, the greens were a little too firm, but otherwise they roll fairly true, I've seen them a little softer and faster, but apart from that, it was in good shape considering it was March 27th.
I'd be back for the deal we got, $14.99 for 18 holes, a great bargain.
We played off of the whites, the photo I've shared, it's a par 4 on the 5th hole, it plays about 270 yards or so, I drove the green that day and left myself a putt pin high inside of 3 feet, walked off with my eagle!

Cold put Fun!

My Son and I had a great day playing the Dunes. It was chilly (8 Celsius) out. However, there were very few people playing that day. So we moved along very quickly. The course was in great shape for this time of the year. All the greens were in great shape except the 1st hole which is under repair.

A great day for a round

Course is a good length. Not overly challenging. Back 9 has more interesting terrain. No beverage cart service but perhaps because it was late in the season. First green was under construction but rest of course was in good shape.
