What is Summerland Golf & Country Club?

Updated

Summerland Golf & Country Club is a semi-private golf club in the Okanagan Valley, owned by its members and open to public and tournament play. It sits on Paradise Flats, about 8 minutes from Highway 97 southwest of the Summerland townsite, and offers tee-time booking, a range of membership options, and a course the club describes as "The Okanagan's Hidden Gem."

Who can play here

The club is semi-private, which means it serves both members and the public. According to the club, three types of visitors are welcome:

  • Casual golfers looking for a place to play
  • Organizers planning a golf outing or tournament
  • Avid golfers looking for a club to join

Because it is member-owned, the course is maintained as a private club would be, but public and tournament play are explicitly welcomed.

The course and setting

The course is on Paradise Flats, a location the club describes as quiet and free from urban noise, with views of the Okanagan Valley and Trout Creek Canyon. The club calls the setting "fitting of a championship golf course" and notes that upgrades to the facility happen annually.

If setting matters to you — quiet, valley views, away from town noise — that is the club's own framing of its main draw.

Booking a tee time

To book, call 250-494-9554 Ext. 1. The club presents phone booking as the direct route; no online booking system is described in the available information.

Memberships

Summerland offers what it describes as among the widest arrays of membership options in the Okanagan Valley. Two details stand out for anyone comparing clubs:

  • Annual Driving Range & Practice Facility Membership is included in all membership categories at no additional charge.
  • No food & beverage minimums are required.

For membership questions or to join, call 250-494-9554 Ext. 3.

Staying informed

The club maintains an email list for specials and upcoming events, which it promotes as the way to keep track of news and notices. If you are comparing clubs or waiting for a promotion before booking, subscribing is the low-commitment first step.
