The Falls Golf Club is situated in beautiful Chilliwack with breathtaking views that overlooks the Fraser Valley from an impressive 750 foot elevation. Natural surroundings, towering cedars and cascading waterfalls complement your mountain side golfing experience.

Grounds Maintained:
The greens had just been punched when we played here so there was rarely a putt that the ball did not bounce. The fairways were in decent shape except for a few areas that were dry, hard ground.
2/5
Staff Friendliness:
The staff in the office and the snack hut girls were very friendly and helpful. There was a person at the 1st tee off that helped us out by letting us know that the distance between the whites and blues increases throughout the course. As well he had warned us of a bear on 3 that we did not come across.
5/5
Amenities:
The office area was a little small and did not offer a large pro shop for equipment and apparel, there is a restaurant and a snack shack that you pass twice during your round. There was no beer cart or driving but a large pitching/practice green.
3/5
Facility Cleanliness:
The main office area was in ok shape, an older building that did not have much appeal to it. The snack shack looked nicer but the bathrooms were small and cramped.
2.5/5
Cost:
Currently the price is $45/round with a cart, but normally when the course is in better shape it will be up around $90. Generally there are coupons and stay and play specials for this course that can be found online.

Total: 14.5/25
Course Type:
Parkland | Public | 18
Par: 71
Thoughts:
A very tough course to play, even if you manage to always keep your ball in play the greens offer a greater challenge with a constant downhill slope on almost every one. Although quite a drive out of the city this was a fun course to play with friends and offers some great views of the valley. Finding a good deal on green fees will make this course a must try by any average golfer, I would not recommend it for beginners though. If driving out make sure to check the map before leaving as the signage is extremely poor.
