About
Walk in the footsteps of Clearwater graduates such as Jason Dufner, Bubba Watson and New Zealand's own World Number 1 Lydia Ko on our manicured fairways and greens surrounded by natural spring-fed lakes.
The course features both the standard Par 72 championship layout (5 tees) and an Executive Par 60 “30|30″ challenge designed by Sir Bob Charles.
Our championship pedigree is reflected in the attention to detail in the daily course setup and care. The course is playable by golfers of all abilities and offers a rewarding experience for players of all abilities.
We are located just a few minutes from Christchurch Airport. Visitors are always welcome.
