Why Join Uplands

Our Mission Statement

“To provide a welcome place to enjoy the sport of golf and social activities,

 appreciate our natural surrounding and experience a friendly atmosphere”.

Location

Uplands Golf Club is one of only four semi-private golf clubs in the Capital Region and is situated on 120 scenic acres adjacent to the University of Victoria. Just 10 minutes from downtown Victoria, it is also readily accessible from all Greater Victoria.

The Clubhouse

Uplands Golf Club is unequalled when it comes to looking after its members and guests.  Our comfortable and spacious Clubhouse, with rooms that accommodate gatherings both large and small, enjoys views of our incredible wooded course.  The Clubhouse is complemented by spacious sundecks that allow you to enjoy the outdoors in a comfortable and sheltered setting.

The Golf Course

A challenge awaits you each time you come to Uplands Golf Club. This classic 18-hole course stretches over 6,420 yards at the Gold markers and offers a challenging course which has hosted many RCGA, National, Provincial and local championships including PGA Tour Canada.  With gentle fairway undulations, and no steep hills or valleys to navigate, this is a course that lends itself to walking and an 18 hole game is often played in 4 hours or less The parkland design continues to evolve with most recent upgrades by course architect, Jeff Mingay. Uplands Golf Club is most recognized for its exceptionally well-groomed fairways and greens which are playable on a year-round basis under the guidance of our Master Superintendent, Brian Youell and his team. 

Take heart. Uplands is a club that takes great pride in making all players feel welcome and comfortable, regardless of their skill level. Our golf shop under Head Golf Professional Ian Stone, will always find a game or arrange a lesson with one of our excellent teaching Pros.

Environmental Stewardship

Uplands is recognized as a ‘Certified Audubon Cooperative Sanctuary’. To achieve this certification, a golf course must demonstrate a high degree of environmental stewardship and we continue be a leader in this field.

Known for its tree-lined fairways, Uplands has produced a tree management system that has revolutionized the way we monitor our 2,000 plus trees. (We are the only course in Canada where each tree is tagged, geo-referenced and given its own management plan).

A birds' nest box initiative has been very successful, contributing to a rich diversity of nearly 100 bird species that enhance our member and guest experience.
