Carrington Golf Club

Frequently Asked Questions

When is the best time of year to play Carrington Golf Club for ideal conditions?

We've found late spring, specifically May and early June, offers the perfect blend of lush fairways and comfortable temperatures at Carrington. You'll avoid the intense summer heat and the course will be in peak condition before the heavier summer play truly kicks in.

How challenging is Carrington Golf Club for an average golfer, and what should I be prepared for?

Carrington offers a fair but firm test, especially if you stray from the fairways - the rough can be surprisingly punishing. We recommend focusing on accuracy off the tee, particularly on the back nine where water comes into play more frequently. Don't let the scenic views distract you from the subtle breaks on the greens.

What are Carrington Golf Club's must-play holes, and what makes them stand out?

You absolutely can't miss the par-3 14th, known for its dramatic elevation drop and expansive views of the distant foothills - it's a real photo opportunity. The finishing 18th is also memorable, demanding a precise approach over a winding creek to a well-guarded green, making for a thrilling end to your round.

Is Carrington Golf Club a good value, and what's the typical cost for a round?

Carrington sits in the mid-to-upper tier for public courses in the region, but we think it's worth every penny for the quality of the layout and conditioning. Expect green fees to range from $90-130 depending on the day and time, often including a cart, which is fair for the experience you get.

How is the pace of play at Carrington, and what amenities can I expect at the clubhouse?

We've generally experienced a good pace of play, usually around 4 hours 15 minutes, especially if you book an earlier tee time on a weekday. The clubhouse is welcoming, offering a well-stocked pro shop and a casual grill where you can grab a solid burger and a cold drink after your round.
