“Cowichan is the perfect
golf club!”
- Shane Sparks, member since
2014, 16 handicap
Why consider a membership at CGC? Well, to start we’ve built a
great community of golf lovers— friendly, unpretentious and
enthusiastic. The course layout is walkable and mixes forgiveness
and challenge (no resort golf here), and has a classic ‘turn’ so the
front and back 9’s are both accessible from the club house. Easy
access off the highway with no housing developments on the
course so you can enjoy the peace of the pristine natural setting.
The proshop staff are the friendliest in the business and the
grounds crew does an amazing job of keeping the course in top-
notch shape. There’s wonderful social events for all skill levels —
Mens’ & Ladies nights, Seniors Mornings, Ladies morning, League,
Interleague play, various member-only tournaments, the
Discovery Honda Open, and of course the August club
championship. And the club membership is as diverse as the
Cowichan Valley.
Oh and the value can’t be beat.

But really it depends on the kind of golfer you are.
Casual golfer – So you’ve been playing a few rounds a year and
hacking it up at the company tournament. Why make the leap?
Well for one, if you want to get better you need to play more. But
more importantly, when you are member you can just show up
and play. No booking tee times well in advance and trying
organize your other hacker buddies. Many members enjoy a few
hours of golf after work as a way to unwind. It’s more fun than
the gym and walking 9 holes of golf burns about 700 calories. And
it’s easy to find new friends for a weekend round of a full 18
holes. It’s a great social community, and wouldn’t it be fun to put
up some serious numbers at the next Texas scramble?
Serious golfer — Cowichan is a great track to hone your game.
Flexible, a more challenging back nine accessible from the club
house, abundant on-course practice opportunities, enough
challenge to be interesting, league and interclub competitions,
and great value for the membership fee. Sunday league gets out
many of the “serious” golfers in our club, and a new club
championship has been crowned each of the last 5 years. Maybe
you’ll be next.
Families – NEW. We’ve launched a new family membership plan
to get mom, dad and kids out for some great family time.
Introducing your kids to golf early can mean a lifetime of bonding
over a round of golf. And adults, you get full membership
privileges to get out for some “recharge” time away from the kids.
New to Golf? — Golf is a challenging game, but it is rewarding,
fun and no one is too old to start. (Plus golfers statistically live
longer!) You might not be shooting par, but it gets you outside in
the fresh air, and includes you in a wonderful community.
Membership for a new golfer gives you a change to play the
course during off hours to practice your game. You don’t have to
play 18 holes. Many members play 4, 6 or 9 hole practice rounds
in the evenings. (The course layout makes it easy to get out.) Best
of all you can just show up play after 2pm.
“What I love about being a member at Cowichan, is that not
every round has to be a 4.5 hour time commitment and
planned in advance. I often just show up at the course in the
afternoons to hit some balls and play nine holes. It’s a great
social outlet and doesn’t take too much time away from the
family, so I don’t feel guilty. And since the monthly fee includes
UNLIMITED golf, I can play as much as I like without worrying
about my monthly ‘fun’ budget.”
