The course was created by a group of golfing enthusiasts
in the early 1950s in a bushland cleared setting midway between the town
of Margaret River and the coast.
Golfers, and those just out for a walk, enjoy the abundant flora and fauna, including
kangaroos, geese, rabbits and many varieties of birds. Apart from planted species
there are also magnificent examples of local trees including karri, jarrah, marri
and peppermints.
The course winds it way up the slopes of the Leeuwin-Naturaliste ridge with the
last five holes in particular affording spectacular views of the rolling countryside
and vineyards.

The course is always presented in excellent condition, much to the
credit of local members who established the course largely through their
own volunteer efforts.
Although not heavily bunkered the course features numerous water hazards.
The back nine in particular requires careful shot consideration owing
to the undulating fairways and large trees.
Over the past decade the course has risen in standing and is now one
of Western Australia's most highly regarded country courses.
