The club features an 18-hole championship course that measures just under 5,700 metres from the back tees. With various tee options available, including shorter play for ladies, social tees, and forward tees for children and seniors, players of all levels can find a suitable challenge.
Mullumbimby Golf Club is known for its country-style course, offering breathtaking views of mountains, farmland, and fresh air. The absence of houses along the course ensures a peaceful and quiet environment for golfers. The fairways are well-maintained, and the greens are beautifully undulating, providing an enjoyable playing experience.
For those who prefer to ride, the club offers electric carts for hire. However, many players find it enjoyable to walk, as the course offers stunning views of Mullumbimby's Mt Chincogan, which is also featured as the symbol on the club's merchandise available at the pro shop.
After an exhilarating round of golf, players can head upstairs to the second-floor clubhouse, where they can relax with a drink from the bar. The outdoor seating area provides a perfect vantage point to watch other players finishing up on the course.
