History of the Cohuna Golf Club

The Golf Club at Cohuna is located just a short drive from Echuca and Bendigo in the Murray River Region of Victoria. The home course of Australian professional golfer Stuart Appleby, the Cohuna Golf & Bowls Club has been magically carved out of the Gunbower forest.

Our Course

A well treed Murray River public golf course, Cohuna's extraordinary fairways and greens are set between towering river red gums alongside the picturesque Gunbower creek on Gunbower Island. The golf course is relatively flat with gentle undulating fairways, winding through the red gum forest, with some creek frontage and the occasional bunker.

The main challenge when playing the course comes from tight fairways and fully-grown gum trees that line all fairways. Hitting straight and long will enable you to score well. Chances are that when you miss the fairway, the towering forest red gums will make a direct way to the dance floor a rarity.

Golf at Cohuna usually brings encounters with native fauna that include kangaroos, varieties of Murray River bird life and the occasional emu. A nature playground and golfers sanctuary, the tranquil environment of Cohuna golf course epitomises the allure of golf on the Murray beyond the challenge of the game itself.
