Golf Travel Testimonials from Our Customers
Posted by Andy Baxter on May '9, 2013
Hi Ross
Our group comments from our Kamloops golf trip
Kamloops Golf & County Club – good warm up track and the gal in the clubhouse was excellent and ought to be commended. 11 of us wandered in and the kitchen wasn’t open. She hauled a guy in from the pro shop to serve and she made us all breakfast – she didn’t have to do that.
Talking Rock Golf Great track – great facility. Awesome – the best course of the weekend. 25 degrees though and the patio was closed!!
The Dunes at Kamloops Golf A pleasant surprise. Course is easy on the eye and you can spray a bit. But challenging enough though. Great service in the clubhouse.
Eagle Point Golf Kamloops We played the front 9 here. Not particularly impressed. The course has huge potential but needs a Sugar Daddy to come in and spend money to ramp up the offering. The greens were great but the rough just has to be cleaned up to elevate this course from that of a glorified Muney!! The staff were not ready for us either. Carts weren’t ready, and their starter was not organized. One guy in front of us was wearing a tank top. The dress code basically says wear anything you want.
Sun Rivers Golf Course We played this course 5 years ago and everyone liked it – this time around not so much. The course is well organized – the welcome committee cart guys jump to the pump almost to a fault. The course is in great shape but too many blind tee and approach shots especially on the front 9. Each of us lost balls when they hit what they thought was a perfectly good shot and the ball simply wasn’t where they thought it would be.
Ramada Hotel Kamloops Hotel served the purpose and the staff were good. There is a nice pub up on the top floor that served as a great gathering place for us. If we had known the weather was going to be that good we would likely have picked a hotel with a pool.
We found a fantastic restaurant – Quattro Bistro – right downtown – they gave us a private room and just kept sending food – I had pre-ordered platter style. A bit expensive but a great way to deal with 11 guys. You can add this to your value added recommendations
Every course we played had great greens and all 18 were very consistent considering the time of year. No major incidents. Thanks for your help and patience in organizing. Time to hit the local links now. We will start to think about the 2014 trip in the fall.

The wife and i played both courses and were simply amazed at the views. Towering mountains and great golf, nothing like it back home on the flat lands.
We will be back again to try the columbia golf valley, we both want to play Greywolf golf course for sure!
Thanks - John J.
