It is a great golf course, located at Okotoks, AB. My wife and I have family that lives there and have played the course a few times. Stay out of the prairie grass (rough) and it plays well. It is a fair, but long, course, if you are hitting the ball straight. Regular dress code, no blue jeans. Nice 19th hole. Enjoy your round.

Real nice track, played it around 5 years ago. You will enjoy it.
Once you are out there, make the trip to Kananaskis......

Having just moved here a year ago from Calgary, I have played it a number of times. Definite cart course unless you like a cardiovascular workout with your golf. If you are not fairly straight, will be a challenge. A few interesting hole.....eg. a big downhill par 3 over water, with junk behind. Several holes blind, so helps if you play with someone who has been there before. Overall, I like the course.

Next time you are in the Okotoks area; try River's Edge at the other side of town. Great views and a tougher course than the scorecard indicates.
