Frequently Asked Questions

How challenging is Elks Country Club for an average golfer?

We found Elks to be a fair test, not overly punishing but with enough strategic bunkering and subtle green breaks to keep you honest. You'll appreciate the forgiving fairways, but don't get complacent on the approach shots - they demand precision.

Are there any standout holes or unique features at Elks Country Club we should look forward to?

Absolutely, keep an eye out for the par-3 7th, which plays over a small pond to a well-guarded green - it's a beauty and a real test of nerve. The back nine also offers some lovely elevation changes, particularly around the 14th and 15th, providing great views and interesting lies.

When is the best time of year to play Elks Country Club for optimal conditions?

We highly recommend visiting in late spring or early fall; the course is typically in fantastic shape then, with lush fairways and perfectly rolled greens. Summer can be hot, but the course handles traffic well, and you might find some good twilight rates.
