Lake Albert Golf Club has a rich history, with its formation dating back to 1968 when a 9-hole course was designed with black sand scrapes. In 1979, members decided to expand the course into an 18-hole course, which was successfully completed in 1981. The course was designed by local residents Bow Jude and Dave Cleland. Over the years, members have contributed their time and effort to improve the course, including laying irrigation pipes and developing additional greens.
Today, Lake Albert Golf Club boasts one of the best rural golf courses in South Australia. It features thousands of trees lining the fairways, creating a picturesque and interesting playing experience. The club remains close-knit with approximately sixty-five full-time members, always welcoming new members to join.
