Wirrina Cove Golf Course And Mini Golf New Terry, Wirrina Cove SA

Played yesterday and I have nothing but praise for this course.
At present the greens are in immaculate condition and the fairways are in good nick. The layout is a good challenge for all types of handicaps and makes for a fun round. It's not crowded and some of the views on the back are beautiful. The abundance of kangaroos that live on the course make for a memorable game.

We had a large party for a bucks show here, Mark and the team helped us plan the day over email in the weeks prior. The day went amazingly and we all loved the course. It was great fun and was all done within a reasonable price.

Good little course. Hadn't played here in a while. It no longer has a dedicated pro shop so directions to pay and find the first tee are confusing. The resort itself feels like a ghost town now, but the course is in good condition. It's a hilly up and down with some walking between holes. Some hole directions could be better for walkers. Plays a part 70, with some challenging par 4's and blind tee shots. Shot a 91 despite it being a warm day. Would probably get a cart and play on a cooler day. Beware, greens quicken up during the day! Also seems to be visited by people who are tourists first/golfer second. Hit a middle fairway drive, and while walking towards it and the group ahead were wondering about and stole my ball!

An enjoyable 18 hole course. The wind coming off the ocean can make things a bit tricky sometimes which is good and the greens can be a bit fast if you're not careful. I noticed quite a few unrepaired pitch marks on some so players, please check and repair any you make instead of just leaving them for someone else to deal with.

Part of golf for me is the walk but this time I developed a problem in my left knee whilst on the back nine and was unable to finish my round. The staff were great and came out in a buggy to rescue me and I'd rate them 10/10 for service and helpfulness. Will definitely go back but maybe I'll book a buggy next time instead of walking it.

Warning - watch out for snakes. Had a close encounter with a large Brown that was getting on for a metre in length in the rough to the left of the 5th fairway. If you put a ball in there just forget about it.

What a cracking course. Greens excellent, whole course well kept and challenging. Very Aussie country with Roos and wildlife all around you Restaurant and bar nice, staff friendly but services limited, rooms average. If you're thinking about going to McCracken and you're more into your golf than the room then I'd be heading here first. Tbh loved it.
