Waterton Lakes Golf Course is a stunning destination where wildlife, including deer, elk, moose, and even the occasional bear, can be spotted. Since its opening in 1922, the course has expanded to 18 holes and has undergone significant improvements, especially under new management. Golfers appreciate the well-maintained and groomed course, which offers challenges and breathtaking views of the surrounding mountains. While some reviews noted that the condition of the greens and fairways could be better, many visitors feel the course is underrated and worth the trip. The dining experience at Stanley's BBQ Grill House received positive remarks, with tasty food and friendly service enhancing the overall visit. The welcoming atmosphere, combined with the historical charm of the course, creates an enjoyable golfing experience. Whether one is an avid golfer or simply looking to enjoy nature, Waterton Lakes Golf Course delivers a picturesque setting that embodies the essence of mountain golf.
Straightforward Stanley Thompson course with awesome scenery. The fairways were in good shape, the rough was dry and forgiving because of that, and the fescue will eat your golf ball on some holes. Good variety of difficulty for a shorter course.
Marshalls were very kind when they asked us to pick up the pace and didn’t make us feel bad about some slower players.
Will definitely plan to play here again!

No driving range that I could see.
Clubhouse and pro shop on site.
Great food in the clubhouse for lunch after an early round.
You won't be wowed by anything other than the scenery but you definitely won't be disappointed in the course and experience.
Worth a visit.

Waterton Lakes Golf Course is a truly special place. Be aware that the course's highest point is at an elevation of 1,330 meters (4,365 ft), so if you're not used to the thinner air, walking the course can be quite a workout. The layout, a classic Stanley… read full review
