Three Hills Golf Club, established in 1981 is situated on the picturesque Three Hills Creek about 5 km Southwest of the Town of Three Hills.
The Course makes maximum use of this natural waterway which twists and winds it's way through the entire layout. Wildlife, from
pheasants, horned owls, hawks, geese and herons, to beavers, muskrats, mink, and mule deer, often call this area their home.
Our offset front and back tees give a different feel for most holes should you choose to play a full 18.
Newcomers to the course will no doubt be challenged by tight tee shots to some of the lushest fairways in Alberta,
approach shots requiring steady accuracy, and rolling greens which may need a sharp putter to negotiate.
Several bridges traverse the ever present water, and the course is easily walkable - should you wish. Our course
maintenance staff work tirelessly to keep the course in
excellent condition, and ongoing improvement projects continue to develop for your golfing enjoyment.
