Twin Lakes Golf Course
Rating Snapshot
About
Twin Lakes Golf Resort in South Okanagan is situated in a beautiful valley surrounded by towering mountains covered with forests of firs and pines. It's part of the Okanagan Golf Trail, a group of courses in the Penticton, Oliver, and Summerland areas that each offers a diverse terrain and unique playing experience. The golf course full utilizes the dramatically undulating terrain, incorporating elevated tees, rolling fairways and sloped greens. The lofty elevations also provide stunning views across the rugged landscape. The seventh is the toughest hole with a large sand trap combined with a narrowed fairway. As far as difficulty goes, it's followed by the equally tricky 16th hole, which has a lengthy sand trap that spans almost the entire left side of the golf course. In addition to the golf course, Twin Lakes also has a short-game practice area with chipping and putting greens as well as a riving range.

Nice track with great scenery
Have played this course many times and enjoy it a lot. Fairly wide open so you can spray the ball a bit. Course just opened up last week after the winter and greens were in great shape. Price is well under competing courses so good value.
Only downside is the restaurant is not open, but do have a snack bar that actually has a decent selection.
Great value for a very playable Course
For the cost this Course was more than expected. For the time of year the course was in good playable condition. Staff were very friendly and accommodating. Would definitely play this Course again.
This course is in a beautiful setting
Interesting & beautiful course with narrow fairways, elevated greens with lots of break. Great value, friendly staff, awesome mountain setting.
Excellent value for the money. Some very scenic views
Cheap golf but very busy
We played on $10 Tuesday which is a great deal ($18 with a cart) but it was so slow that it was frustrating. The course was in pretty good condition and it is a pretty course with a few challenges along the way. It would have been great if it had been faster.
Great value
Always a treat to golf this course that offers great value.
Nice course
My husband & I stayed at the RV park and golfed every day, course is in really good shape except the greens were recently punched just prior to our arrival.
We always enjoy our time here, staff are friendly, avoid $10 Tuesday's as the pace is painfully slow , took us close to 5.5 hrs.
Great deals on Golfnow.
A Great Course
I've played this course many times and always enjoy it.
Scenic course!
My favorite course I've ever played! Scenery is amazing, staff are great. Course offers a challenge for most abilities.
Twin Lakes
Interesting course. A couple of very difficult holes and the rest are a good challenge. Really enjoy the course.
visually great and entertaining to play
I like this course. Greens could be a little softer but they are in good shape.
Always enjoy this course
Great course, staff very friendly & acommodating the RV park adjoining the golf course is a bonus - love it. Great value.
Golfing in the Mountains
Many elevation changes at this course from elevated tee boxes to elevated greens. Course was in great shape greens where playing fast and true.
Much Improved
We played this course 3 years ago and swore we would never play it again. Temporary greens on the fairway were not even cut. No discount on green fees. We decided to play again last week on our way to Penticton and what a difference. The course was in great shape. We were in an electric cart instead of the horrible gas ones on our previous visits. The fairways were in good shape and most of the greens were excellent. A couple still need a bit of work. There was hardly anyone on the course so we had a very pleasant round with no waiting and no-one pushing us. Will definitely play again as I like the layout. It is challenging in places but generally not too hard.
Decent track
Nice views. Greens were hairy
Management changes
What were once AWFUL staff and facilities over the winter of 15/16 have now become ZERO / ABHORENT !! Expect no help from staff, no warm-up areas, and worse yet....they will try to gouge your credit card for non-existent golf cart damage to pay for their terrible service. Course is nice, prices are okay if you book using GolfNow.. Front 9 is "courses for horses, back 9 is semi-links style ( wide open / flat / windy.
Twin Lakes is terrible.
I played there 10 years multiple times , not bad. Over the winter something happened.... now it is AWFUL !! ZERO WARM UP FACILITES, ZERO CART STAFF,. ZER0 ATTENTION MADE TO THE COURSE. I highly recommend taking a pass on Twin Lakes until ownership reviews it's commitment to the players beyond the RV'ers.
Challenging
Excellent course! Our favourite so far!
