 Stewart Creek Golf & Country Club was named as the second best new course in Canada by Golf Digest Magazine when it opened in 2001. Since then it has done nothing but build upon its reputation as one of the best in the country. Quite simply when you are in the Canadian Rockies, you must add Stewart Creek Golf & Country Club to your Rocky Mountain golf vacation.
Right from your first tee shot you will understand why Stewart Creek is on so many must-play lists. A medium length par four, the first hole requires you to hit a drive in the direction of the historic coal mine entrance on the left side of the fairway – one hundred feet below the tee! The fairway is lined by pine forest and a granite shelf and your tee shot is framed by the unforgettable peaks of the Canadian Rockies so blocking out those distractions long enough to execute a good opening drive is often easier said than done. From the landing area it is a mid to short iron to a two tiered green.
 The following holes continue to offer the same opportunities for golfing glory and awe-inspiring scenery. Some holes will call for draws. Others will call for fades. All will call upon your imagination and your ability to block out the scenic distractions of the Canadian Rockies. Play this course just once and you will understand what all the fuss is about.
Be sure to add Stewart Creek Golf & Country Club to your Canadian Rockies ‘must play’ list. |
