    The Drive
    Ernest J.

    My second round of the day was at The Rise Golf Course. The Rise Golf Course is about an hours drive away from Kelowna the small town of Vernon. Finding this course was a bit of the challenge. You keep driving up and up this unmarked and unpaved road until you can drive no further... than you've reached The Rise! Our tee time was 5 pm. There were not a lot of golfer on the course so the kid running the pro shop let our group on a bit early. The Rise reminds me a lot of Chateau Whistler. The course's yardage looks short but the dramatic elevations add a degree of difficulty to play here. Looking down from the top of The Rise, golfers are treated to some very beautiful views of Vernon and the inlet. The only negative is that playing golf at twilight here exposes you to the mosquito fest! When the sun starts going down those pesty insects come out! That afternoon the mosquitoes were treated to big Chinese buffet! Haha! I have to admit I quit scoring my game! It was impossible to concentrate on putting with mosquitoes buzzing round your face. I was told this course has been around for 6 or 7 years. It's kind of sad to realize that the course's amenities are on the pathetic side! Their clubhouse is a big tent! There is no discernible way for you to get some decent food here! All I can say is I hope these guys find some rich Asian investors and get a big infusion of $$$! It's sad to think they developed this beautiful track and we have to stand by and watch it withering away cuz no one wants to or can water it with money! Still I for the most part enjoyed playing golf at The Rise! The course is well maintained and pristinely manicured. The greens were quick but fair. The holes were challenging but fair. The golfer who plays this course will say he was definitely entertained!

    Came out to play Men's Night. Such a great afternoon. Great price of $65 for 18 holes and men's night prizes. Such a great value.

    My husband, uncle, cousin, and I golfed at Hillview yesterday for the 6:30 PM tee time. It was my…read morehusband's very first time golfing and my first time ever playing a 9-hole course. We were excited to try it, especially after reading on the website that Hillview welcomes golfers of all skill levels. Unfortunately, our experience was overshadowed by an interaction with a staff member. As we were finishing the first hole, a young employee approached us and told us that we needed to be faster and that there was "no reason" for us to be spending that much time on one hole. We explained that we were beginners and genuinely didn't realize there was an expected pace of play. While he acknowledged that it was our first time, the way the message was delivered felt dismissive and unwelcoming rather than helpful. What made the situation more frustrating was that there was nobody behind us. We had booked the last tee time of the evening, so we weren't holding up other golfers. Additionally, at no point when we paid just under $200 were we informed that there was a time limit or that we were expected to complete each hole within a certain timeframe. That information would have been very helpful for first-time players like us. The interaction completely changed the atmosphere for us. It took the enjoyment out of the experience to the point that I stopped playing, and so did my uncle, as we were there as his guests. I don't blame the young employee personally, as I'm sure he was following instructions from management. However, there are much better ways to approach new golfers. A friendly reminder such as, "Just so you know, we try to keep groups moving at a certain pace. Since you're new, here are a few tips that might help. Enjoy your round!" would have been much more appropriate and welcoming. What disappointed me most is that Hillview's website specifically states that the course is for everyone and welcomes golfers of all skill levels. As beginners, we didn't feel that reflected in our experience. It's unfortunate because we were genuinely enjoying ourselves until that moment. New golfers should leave feeling encouraged to come back, not embarrassed or discouraged from continuing to play.

    High-End Expectations, Disappointing Course Management Our…read moregroup of six booked through BC Golf Guide and arrived at the Ridge Course at Predator Ridge with very high expectations. The arrival experience certainly felt first-class: the practice facilities were excellent, and the starter was professional and clear about maintaining an appropriate pace of play. Unfortunately, the experience deteriorated quickly. By the second hole, it was obvious that the group ahead of us was paying little attention to the players behind them. Our round ultimately took more than five hours. When we raised the issue with the first course marshal, his only response was essentially, "Yes, it's slow," and nothing was done. A second marshal eventually intervened, but we were already on the 15th hole, so it was far too late to make a meaningful difference. The cart restrictions made matters considerably worse. In addition to the four par-3 holes, five par-4 or par-5 holes were designated cart-path-only. On several of these holes, the restriction made little sense based on the apparent course conditions. Because this is a demanding mountain course with significant inclines, repeatedly walking from the cart path to the middle of the fairway and back was extremely difficult--particularly for members of our group who have undergone knee surgery. At approximately $300 per golfer, we expected much better course management, more effective pace-of-play enforcement, and clearer consideration of how extensive cart restrictions affect golfers with mobility limitations. Predator Ridge presents itself as a premium golf destination, and parts of the experience reflect that. Unfortunately, the management of our round did not. Based on this experience, we are not planning to return anytime soon. Date of experience: July 2026
