Creston Golf Club

Posted on October 6, 2011 by Jeff & Tara

The last week of September our road trip through the Kootenays and Okanagan took us to wineries just for fun (see previous blog) and to golf courses and other venues where Jeff was speaking about social media.

Posted on May 10, 2011 by Jeff & Tara

Well this Friday was an adventure! We went on a lovely trip to the Sunshine Coast in particular Sechelt. While we were there we did a site inspection at a course under a new owner.

Golf Course Review – Long Beach (Tofino)

Posted on October 1, 2010 by Jeff & Tara

The Long Beach Golf Course, on the most westerly point of Vancouver Island in Tofino, is owned and operated by Keith ‘Gibby’ Gibson and his team. The day we visited there was a heavy fog and although the clouds threatened, it turned out to be a decent day for a game of golf.

Golf Course Review – Morgan Creek

Posted on September 16, 2010 by Jeff & Tara

I had a chance to play Morgan Creek Golf Course in Surrey, BC the other day, on a chance invite from a couple of great guys I had met through Twitter.

For a mid-September day the weather was fantastic to the point that I regretted not wearing shorts!

I’ve played Morgan Creek about a half a dozen times in the last ten years or so and the last time was probably a year or two ago. I have to admit that… Read More →

Golf Course Review – Sechelt Golf

Posted on September 5, 2010 by Jeff & Tara

We had a chance to play at Sechelt a couple of weeks ago when we were on the Sunshine Coast for a quick trip. It was actually the first time we had been to the Sunshine Coast and had no idea what to expect at Sechelt Golf & Country Club. As we made our way up a windy tree lined road to the golf course driveway, we were a bit surprised as the golf course appeared to be a links style course with… Read More →
