Description:
Ted Parslow-designed; The Murray Downs 18 hole championship course is situated in the heart of historic Kidman Reid's Murray Downs Station on the rivers northern banks on the border with Victoria.

Construction of the Murray Course commenced in mid October 1988 and was formally opened in March 1991. The soil is a wonderful reddish brown, dotted by trees and tufts of natural grasses, making for a striking first impression.

Highlights are the par 3 5th - a huge water carry over a lake that follows the hole all the way to the green on the right. Bunkers guard the left of this narrow target and it is rated one of the toughest holes on the course.

The challenge of a championship rated 18 hole course is exhilarating and will seriously test all facets of your game.

The Amen corner is the par 3 15th, par 5 16th and the par 4 17th. The last of this difficult three begins from an elevated tee but then finds you hitting to a green where water cuts across the front and bites into the right side.

Experience the pleasure of playing golf away from metropolitan crowds, in the peace and quiet of the Murray's most awarded and popular resort course
Course location: The Murray region of NSW
