The Okanagan Golf Club
Take 384 acres of fertile, rolling high-desert country in the rainshadow of the Cascade Mountains, where blossoming orchards and vineyards rise above 120 km Lake Okanagan. Blend in the rich green artistry of golf course architects Les Furber and Nicklaus Designs. It all adds up to The Okanagan Golf Club, one of British Columbia's most intoxicating golf destinations.
Golf Courses are CLOSED for the winter; see you in late March 2025!
The Bear | The Quail
The Okanagan Golf Club presents its first challenge before you even pull on your spikes: which of our two championship courses - The Quail or The Bear - to play first. Afterward, kick back in our welcoming clubhouse to revisit your best shots over a refreshing drink. Or try to improve upon them at our extensive practice facility. If you need help, the Golf Academy at The Okanagan Golf Club is located on site.
