Nice enough course but the pace of play is brutal. 5+ hours is way too long for a round of golf. Find somewhere else to play.

We loved the course, but play was so slow. We spoke to the marshall on the 11th hole and advised him of the two an a half hour front nine. He was never seen again on our round.

Always a pleasure to play this course. A good challenge and every hole separate from the others. I play it each year a couple of times and am never disappointed. Friendly and helpful staff.

We lived in Campbell River 20 years ago and were members at this course. We loved it at that time.
On our recent visit we played again. The course has improved, if that was even possible.
The layour and design (Les Furber) is superb. You hardly ever see an adjacent hole. There is a good mix of par 4's 3's and 5's. The greens roll nice. Fairways are in good shape.
The course can be difficult, especially if you tend to spray the ball off the tee.
One of the really good things is that the course is WALKABLE. There is no need to take a cart if you don't want one. There are some small hills on the back nine but hardly big enough to be even classified as hills.
The pro shop staff are friendly and professional. There is also a restaurant / bar although we did not eat there. Green fees are on the high side but are not out of line given the quality of the course.
If you are in the North Island, and are a golfer, this is a must play.

Both of us were blown away by this amazing hidden gem of a golf course. Great scenery loads of wild life with great golf holes throughout the 18. Greens were difficult but fair, fairways were in super shape. Would love to play this again, would definitely recommend it. Oh and the bear on the 5 the hole made our day.

There is spectacular forest scenery on this course. We saw a least a dozen deer and fawns. The course is tough with targeted landing spots and bring lots of balls. Great course for the money. The clubhouse isn't too impressive; I would plan to hang out elsewhere after the round. I would play here any day though.

Our group of 17 players came up for a day of golf in late May. The course was amazing. We found that the greens rolled true and the layout was in great shape. This course is well worth the drive up island, and in fact most of our party enjoyed this course the most on our tour. Don’t miss this course if you are on the island. The all day pass was a great value.

Simply wow in so many ways. We were a group of 6 up for the day from Vancouver to try out the infamous Storey Creek course. We were all blown away and left the course eager to get back again as soon as possible.
First of all I have to compliment the staff and the members there that were so friendly, helpful and considerate to us. We made a wrong turn after the 2nd hole, missing the signage on the cart path (we took a short cut right across to the 17th tee box thinking it was the 3rd) and ended up playing the 17th and half of the 18th before realizing that we perhaps took a wrong turn. While backtracking we ran into some members who were nice enough to plug us in front of them to get us in the right direction. (Note for improvement there, guys, to put that signage for the 3rd right as you come off the 2nd.)
The fairways were lined with majestic trees, like some natural cathedral! God, it was breathtaking! The greens were immaculate, skies were blue, temperature was toasty warm - we couldn't have chosen a better day. We were visited by several deer throughout the round as well. "A Course in Nature" indeed! Sorry for all of the exclamation marks. You folks should be very proud of what you have there. We'll all be back.
Oh yeah, too bad the one par-5 on the front was under-repair but we were too gobsmacked with enjoyment to even let that blemish the day.
Thanks again to everyone there and especially to the members. Wow, is that what happens when you move from the city to Campbell River and have a golf course like Storey Creek to play on?
Cheers
Geoff

Had the pleasure of golfing here in august. Daughter went whale watching so I drove over and got a good twilight rate and paired with a member. Nice layout and weather was good. Very enjoyable day on a nice course
