The Course

Kananaskis Ranch Golf Resort is a friendly public facility open for daily green fee use. Our location, where the foothills meet the Canadian Rockies, is a beautiful setting for hosting tournaments, group events, family reunions, weddings and staff events.

Brewster's Pro ShopThe pro shop is a quaint one room log cabin with hand crafted pine benches which offer comfort and a spectacular view from the wooden deck. The cabin is supplied with all your golf necessities, a licensed snack bar and handcrafted pine furniture by the owner.

Power carts, pull carts, club rentals are available.

Every hole is unique, with smooth fairways, bent grass greens, a couple of small ponds and a handful of sand traps. This Rocky Mountain golf course lies in the shadows of Yamnuska Mountain on the North side of the Brewster family’s 90 year old guest ranch.

Brewster's Kananaskis Ranch Golf CourseJohn Down from the Calgary Herald describes the course this way: “This regulation course (2,942 yards- par 35) gets your attention right away. The first hole, the only par 5, measures a relatively short 504 yards but it’s tight, tight. Keep it in play or pay a big price. The second and third holes are 300 and 340 yards, with a pond cutting into both fairways. The fourth hole, a 398-yard dog-leg right, and the 386-yard, dog-leg right seventh hole, are the most challenging holes. Both dare you to take a shortcut over the corner, but while you might get away with it at the No.4, there’s almost no chance of pulling it off at No. 7. The two par 3’s, the 175-yard fifth and the 227-yard eighth, are as different as night and day. A small creek meanders across the front of No. 5 green. An elevated tee greets you at No.8, which offers a wide fairway and trees down both sides and behind the green. Neither is intimidating, just picture perfect.

For nature lovers this course is your ideal choice. There is an abundance of wildflowers throughout the season, birdlife is plentiful with the possibility of seeing a wide variety of species, including Kestrels, Red-tailed Hawk, Golden Eagles, Bald Eagles and Osprey. A family of mule deer may pay you a visit on the greens. The golf course follows the moraines on the north bank of the Bow River, surrounded by Rocky Mountain scenery…don’t forget your camera!

The history…

Bud Brewster, a fourth generation cowboy and entrepreneur had a dream to complete a 18 hole golf course on the original homestead. The front 9 opened in July of 2001 and as Bud enters his 80th year he will see his dream complete as the 18 hole course will open in the summer of 2008. A banquet facility was added in 2007 that is perfect for your group event.

Brewster, a lefty when he tees up, designed the initial layout. Draftsman Lou Geroux made additional changes and caterpillar driver and friend Bruno Michalsky renovated before architect Reg Dow revamped the greens. Sykes Construction rough graded and Ron Smythe of Medicine Hat provided the final grade and irrigation. It was a team work approach to say the least.

John Brewster was born in Kingston, Ontario. In 1886 he followed the Canadian Pacific Railroad to Banff, Alberta, deciding this would become his home. John identified a need for a dairy to service the CPR Hotel and the growing community. He was required to keep the dairy herd out of the National Park so John established his homestead at the base of Yamnuska Mountain, which today are the Kananaskis Guest Ranch and the Kananaskis Ranch Golf Resort.
