Sometimes the best experiences are those we don鈥檛 expect. If you think a championship-level golf course parks the fun at the pro-shop, for example, you鈥檒l likely be thrilled to tee up amid the relaxed, friendly atmosphere at 琉璃神社鈥檚 .
And if you have some preconceived ideas about golf course food, well, you鈥檒l find some surprises in store there, too!
鈥淲e definitely provide you with an amazing golf experience, but we also don鈥檛 take ourselves too seriously,鈥� says Black Mountain General Manager, Russ Latimer. 鈥淵ou won鈥檛 find anything stuffy about Black Mountain.鈥�
Nestled amid some of the most beautiful scenery in the Okanagan, this masterfully designed 18-hole course offers something for golfers of every level, where you can golf along majestic cliffs and even try your hand at their signature island green.
鈥淚t鈥檚 tight, target golf or 鈥榤ountain golf鈥�, with amazing scenery and lots of elevation changes as well as our famous island hole,鈥� Latimer says.
This amazing golf experience, coupled with service from their friendly up-beat staff, makes Black Mountain the kind of place where you want to stay awhile.
鈥淲e have awesome staff, who鈥檙e always laughing and joking,鈥� Latimer says. 鈥淟ike I always say, 鈥業t鈥檚 just a golf course, people are here to have fun, so all we have to do is make sure they do!鈥欌��
Tasty dishes and stunning vistas
Finish your round at The Grill at Black Mountain, where you鈥檒l savour mouth-watering dishes and a selection of frosty beverages and premium local beers. The perfect place to enjoy them? The 120-seat patio providing breathtaking views of the course and mountains.
鈥淭he Grill also doesn鈥檛 really have the feel of a typical golf club, with great music and the huge patio with a beautiful east-facing view of the mountains and the 18th green,鈥� Latimer says. 鈥淎nd the food鈥檚 amazing, with items like braised short rib and ahi tuna along with a selection of pub classics like our beef dip and Black Mountain caesar 鈥� both hugely popular.鈥�
There鈥檚 always something fun happening at Black Mountain Golf Club, including tournaments like the Kal-West Mechanical Men鈥檚 Open and the RBC Scramble All-Female Local Qualifier as well as the Special Olympics 琉璃神社 Classic, Putts for Paws and Chicks with Sticks charity events.
鈥淕reat course, fun staff,鈥� exclaims one happy reviewer. 鈥淰ery, very friendly staff. I highly recommend Black Mountain!鈥�
