Frequently Asked Questions

When is the best time of year to play Glenkerry Golf Course?

We've found late spring, from May to early June, offers ideal conditions at Glenkerry. The greens are typically in peak shape, and you'll avoid the intense summer heat that can make the back nine a real slog. If you don't mind cooler temps, October brings stunning fall foliage, making for a picturesque round.

How challenging is Glenkerry for an average golfer, and what should I expect?

Glenkerry is a fair test, but it's not overly punishing if you keep it in play. The real challenge comes from the undulating greens and strategically placed bunkers, especially on holes 7 and 14. You'll want to bring your A-game with your short irons and putting.

What makes Glenkerry unique, and are there any signature holes I should look forward to?

Glenkerry truly shines with its natural elevation changes and the way the course integrates the old growth oak trees. The par-3 12th hole, "The Sentinel," is a standout; it demands a precise shot over a ravine to a well-guarded green, offering incredible views of the valley below. We also love the risk-reward par-5 18th, a fantastic finishing hole.

What's the typical cost to play Glenkerry, and is it good value?

Green fees at Glenkerry generally range from $90-130, depending on the day and time you play. While it's not the cheapest round, we think it's excellent value for the quality of the course conditions and the memorable layout. Consider playing twilight for a slightly reduced rate if your schedule allows.

What amenities does Glenkerry offer, and what's the post-round experience like?

Glenkerry has a well-stocked pro shop and a practice facility with a decent driving range and putting green. After your round, we always head to "The Oak Room" grill; their local craft beer selection and the views from the patio are the perfect way to unwind and discuss your birdies (or bogeys).
