Nice course layout. Some holes quite challenging.

This course is much improved since the last time I played a few years ago. A few challenging holes but playing 'smart' golf will yield rewards. Nice views from a few tees. A few light showers during the afternoon did not affect the greens, #quite fast#. A few hard spots on the fairways from lack of water and the effects of a hot, dry summer. Clubhouse staff very friendly and welcoming. Well placed bunkers and meandering stream keeps things interesting.

Alberni Adventure

Excellent fast greens on all 18 holes, visually beautiful and great views. The Alberni course requires straight drives off the tee through sentinel firs to reach mostly open fairways. This course is a real challenge to 1st time players and will prompt a determination to return to post the score you know you can. We had a great time and the staff were very helpful.

A thoroughly engaging and challenging course!

The course turned out to be, for us, an undiscovered gem. We're already planning our next trip to play again. We were so impressed with the variety in the course design. There's a little bit of everything to challenge both the occasional and the keen golfer. From the tips it's a great test for even the lowest handicapper. Very much worth the drive.

Well groomed even for late in the summer

lush and green, but well groomed tee locations, fairways, and greens. Many improvements to the course over the last few years. Well done!

Nice course, lousy pricing

$39 for twilight, starting at 3pm? Pretty steep price, considering neighbouring courses charge anywhere between $25 and $35. Plus, this course doesn't offer a single rider rate on their carts.

I guess that's what happens when you're the only golf course in town. (The Hollies is not really a golf course).

Beautiful Vista - rolling hills surrounded by mountains

A delightful course with wide tree-lined fairways. Unfortunately the mowed grass still lay on the rough making ball spotting and recovery difficult but otherwise, beautifully groomed. The second negative was the cost of the old and noisy, gas-powered cart.
