About the Course
Ranked 47th among Canada's best public courses by SCOREGolf, Fairview Mountain has earned recognition as a 'distinctly spectacular golfing destination' by Canadian Golf Traveller, with Canadian Golf Hall of Fame member Bob Weeks placing it among his personal Top 100 courses in Canada. Since 1925, this Okanagan Valley gem has leveraged over 200 feet of elevation change to craft a dramatic mountain golf experience, establishing itself as one of British Columbia's premier public facilities. The 4th hole, a 497-yard par-4, plunges 75 feet from tee to green with out-of-bounds stakes guarding the right side, forcing players to favor the safer left route—this visual drama and strategic challenge epitomizes mountain golf at its finest. Greens invariably break toward the valley regardless of pin position, and combined with undulating surfaces, every putt becomes a test of terrain reading skills. The layout alternates between generous valley holes and tight, tree-lined corridors, offering a 7,025-yard test that challenges without intimidating. This balance of playability and character explains why Fairview Mountain has captivated golfers of all levels for nearly a century.
