Park International Country Club

Frequently Asked Questions

What's the best time of year to play Park International Country Club?

We've found late spring (October-November) or early autumn (March-April) offers the best balance at Park International. You'll get comfortable temperatures and the course is typically in peak condition, avoiding the busier summer crowds and any potential winter dampness.

What kind of course can I expect at Park International - is it links, parkland, or something else?

Don't let the 'Country Club' in the name fool you; Park International offers a delightful blend of mature parkland holes with some surprisingly open, almost links-style stretches on the back nine. We particularly love how the native New Zealand flora frames many of the fairways, demanding precision off the tee.

Is Park International a walkable course, or should I plan on taking a cart?

Absolutely, Park International is a fantastic walk, and we highly recommend it to truly appreciate the elevation changes and views. While carts are available if you prefer, the course's gentle undulations make for an enjoyable trek, especially on a crisp New Zealand morning.

What's the signature hole or a 'must-play' hole at Park International?

For us, the par-3 14th hole at Park International is an absolute standout - it's a beauty and a beast. You'll face a challenging carry over a natural gully to a well-guarded green, with stunning views of the surrounding hills as your backdrop.

What's the atmosphere like at the clubhouse after a round at Park International?

After your round, the clubhouse at Park International has a wonderfully relaxed, unpretentious vibe that we really appreciate. Grab a local craft beer or a flat white on the deck; it's the perfect spot to recount your birdies and bogeys while soaking in the peaceful New Zealand countryside.
