Redstone Golf Course

Frequently Asked Questions

What's the best time of year to play Redstone Golf Course?

We find that spring (October-November) and autumn (March-April) offer the most pleasant conditions, with comfortable temperatures and fewer crowds. While summer is beautiful, it can get busy, and winter play is crisp but watch out for potential frost delays on early mornings.

How challenging is Redstone for an average golfer?

Redstone is surprisingly playable for all handicaps, but don't mistake that for easy; it demands smart course management. The rolling fairways and strategically placed bunkers will test your accuracy, especially when the famous New Zealand winds decide to make an appearance.

What's the signature hole or a must-see feature at Redstone?

You absolutely have to experience the back nine, particularly the stretch from 14 to 16. The elevated tee on the par-3 15th offers simply breathtaking panoramic views of the distant peaks that will make you want to pause for a photo.

Should I walk or take a cart at Redstone?

While many New Zealand courses are quite walkable, Redstone has some significant elevation changes, especially on the back nine. We'd suggest a cart if you prefer to conserve energy for your swing, but if you're fit, walking offers a fantastic, immersive perspective of the landscape.

What should I know about booking and green fees at Redstone?

Booking ahead is always smart, particularly during peak season; walk-ins can sometimes get lucky but don't count on it. Green fees are competitive for a course of this caliber in New Zealand, and we recommend checking their website for twilight deals or package rates if you're flexible.
