Furry Creek Golf and Country Club

Frequently Asked Questions

What's the best time of year to play Furry Creek and truly experience its famous views?

You absolutely want to aim for late spring through early fall, typically May to September. The weather is more reliable, and the vibrant greens against the Howe Sound backdrop are simply breathtaking - it's when the course truly shines. We recommend booking a morning tee time to avoid the afternoon winds that can sometimes pick up off the water.

Is Furry Creek a challenging course for the average golfer, and what should I be prepared for?

Furry Creek is definitely a test, especially if you're not used to significant elevation changes and tight fairways. You'll encounter dramatic drops and carries over ravines, so bring extra balls and focus on accuracy over distance. Don't let the stunning views distract you too much from the task at hand!

Everyone talks about the 18th hole at Furry Creek - what makes it so special?

Ah, the 18th at Furry Creek is iconic for a reason; it's a truly memorable finishing hole. You'll hit from an elevated tee, looking down a dramatic par-5 that doglegs left with Howe Sound as your backdrop, making for an unforgettable approach shot over water to the green. It's a fantastic photo opportunity and a challenging, rewarding way to end your round.

How does the cost of playing Furry Creek compare to other courses in the Vancouver area, and is it worth it?

Furry Creek is certainly on the higher end for green fees in the Vancouver region, reflecting its unique location and premium experience. We believe it's absolutely worth the splurge for the unparalleled scenery and distinct course design you won't find anywhere else. Consider it an investment in a truly memorable golf day, not just another round.

Beyond the golf, what else should we know about visiting Furry Creek or the surrounding area?

While the golf is the main draw, the drive along the Sea-to-Sky Highway to get there is an experience in itself, offering incredible coastal views. After your round, grab a bite at the clubhouse restaurant; the patio views are spectacular and perfect for recounting your shots. You're also just a short drive from Squamish, which offers plenty of outdoor activities if you're making a day of it.
