Berriwillock Golf Club
Berriwillock Golf Club is a small country golf course in the heart of Victoria's Mallee, offering a relaxed golfing experience among trees and open farmland.
The seasonal nine-hole sandscrape course is situated on Golf Street, a short distance from the centre of Berriwillock.
Although the surrounding country is generally flat, the course is described as tight and challenging because of the numerous trees.
Golf Course:
The course has nine holes with traditional sandscrape putting surfaces rather than conventional grass greens.
These are a distinctive feature of many golf courses in dry parts of regional Australia.
Features include:
- Nine-hole country golf course.
- Sandscrape putting surfaces.
- Flat terrain with numerous trees.
- Seasonal golf competitions.
- Opportunities for casual visitors to play.

Review:
Berriwillock Golf Club offers a traditional country golfing experience that is quite different from playing on a large metropolitan course.
The sandscrape greens are an unusual feature for visitors unfamiliar with golf courses in dry inland regions.
The course is relatively flat, but the trees provide challenges for golfers trying to keep their shots on the fairways.
With nine holes, it offers the opportunity for a shorter outing without committing to a full eighteen-hole round.
Families with children interested in golf may enjoy the relaxed country setting, although junior equipment and coaching arrangements have not been confirmed.
This is primarily a seasonal community golf course rather than a dedicated children's activity venue.
For families travelling through the Mallee who enjoy golf, it provides an interesting option to consider during the cooler months.
