Vancouver Golf Club: What It Is and How to Visit or Join

Updated

Vancouver Golf Club is a private golf club at 771 Austin Avenue, Coquitlam, BC V3K 3N2, set within 176 acres of woodland park and describing itself as offering one of the most beautiful and challenging courses in the Pacific Northwest. If you want to play, join, or hold an event there, the right starting point depends on your goal: prospective guests should look for guest information, prospective members should look for joining information, and event planners should look for weddings and events. Existing members use the member login.

Where the club is and how to reach it

The club's own site lists a single location and two phone lines:

Detail Information
Address 771 Austin Avenue, Coquitlam, BC V3K 3N2
Office phone (604) 936-3404
Golf Shop phone (604) 936-1131

Note that despite the name, the club is in Coquitlam, not the City of Vancouver. If you are planning travel or a taxi drop-off, use the Coquitlam address.

What the club offers

According to the club's homepage, the experience centers on:

  • A golf course set within 176 acres of woodland park
  • Practice facilities
  • Private club amenities
  • A clubhouse that also hosts gatherings, weddings, and events

The site's framing — "More than a club. A way of life." — signals that this is a membership-oriented private club rather than a daily-fee public course. That distinction matters for how you get onto the property.

Choosing your path: guest, member, or event

The site's navigation points to several distinct entry points. Match yours to the goal:

If you want to play as a guest

Look for the Guest Information section. As a private club, access is generally arranged through a member or through the club directly rather than by walking up and booking a public tee time. If you don't know a member, call the Golf Shop at (604) 936-1131 and ask what guest play requires.

If you want to join

Use the Join section. Membership at a private club typically involves an application and review process rather than an instant online purchase. Start there, then follow up with the Office at (604) 936-3404 for current process and any requirements.

If you want to hold an event

Use the Weddings or Events sections for venue inquiries. These are separate from golf bookings, so contact the club through the event path rather than the Golf Shop.

If you are already a member

Use Member Login. This is only for existing members — it is not a way to book as a visitor.

What to check before you contact the club

The club's public pages do not list pricing, membership fees, or guest rates. Treat those as unknown until the club tells you directly. Before calling, have ready:

  • Your goal (guest round, membership, or event)
  • Preferred dates
  • Whether you are connected to an existing member
  • Group size, if booking an event

Common points of confusion

  • The name vs. the location. "Vancouver Golf Club" is in Coquitlam. Don't navigate to Vancouver.
  • Private vs. public. The site describes a private club with member login and guest information, not open public tee times. Plan to make contact rather than book online.
  • Which phone number. Use the Golf Shop for play-related questions and the Office for membership and administrative matters.
  • Member login is not a visitor tool. If you are not a member, it won't help you get a tee time.

For anything not covered on the public site — rates, availability, membership terms — contact the club directly at the numbers above.
