Frankton Golf Centre

Set against the stunning backdrop of the Remarkables mountain range, our gentle 9-hole golf course is perfect for novices and experienced players alike. Conveniently located adjacent to Queenstown Events Centre and Queenstown International Airport, Frankton Golf Centre provides residents and visitors with an opportunity to play and learn golf at an affordable and well-maintained facility.

If you're looking for a casual game of golf or an activity to fill some spare time, Frankton Golf Centre is the course for you.

Our facilities include

  • 9-hole golf course
  • Driving range
  • Large putting/chipping green
  • NZPGA qualified coaching
  • Fully stocked Pro Shop.

9-Hole Public Golf Course

  • The course is easy walking with a par of 30. There are six par 3s ranging from 73m to 185m, and three par 4s ranging from 280m to 310m. The course record is currently 26, held by Frankton Golf Club head PGA professional, Jamie 'J-Mac' McIsaac.
  • Covered Driving Range
  • The 10-bay driving range is a popular place to warm up or fine-tune your swing. Novice players can practice without the pressure of worrying if the ball doesn’t quite go where they intended! Five of the bays are covered allowing all weather practice. This is great for when it is too wet to get out on the course or if you just want to blaze away and see how far you can get it.

    Club Fitting - $79

    Feel like you make a good swing and the ball doesn’t react how you think it should? Having clubs that fit your golf swing can make a huge difference to the shots you hit. The first step in finding the best suited clubs for you is booking a club fitting session with one of our professionals.

    Each club fitting session lasts approximately 45 minutes, depending on what clubs you’re looking for and how many. With multiple brands and models available in our Pro Shop, finding the right head design, loft, shaft flex and weight is easy. Even better, if you purchase golf equipment with us, the club fitting price will come off the total price of the item.

    • Wide variety of brands and models
    • One on one expert advice from a golf professional
    • Try multiple clubs and compare against each.
