How it compares

27-hole club
  • Several nines, so you can play different combinations.
  • Rated 4.4 on Google, about the typical 4.3 for courses around Brisbane.
  • One of the most-reviewed courses around Brisbane (536 Google reviews), so it sees plenty of play.

Virginia Golf Club sits at Banyo, about 20 minutes from the Brisbane CBD and 10 minutes from the airport. The club has 27 holes: an 18-hole championship course and a nine-hole Heritage course. It describes itself as one of Queensland's oldest courses and marked its 90th anniversary in 2018.

Golfers describe the championship course as flat, leafy and well maintained, with fairly long, testing par 4s that are fair to anyone who keeps the ball in play. Reviewers mention few water hazards, trees that come into play, and a layout that suits walkers. The course drains slowly and floods after heavy rain. The Heritage 9 draws more mixed comments. Some golfers enjoy it as a good-value, walkable nine with decent greens, while others call it tired, with debris, rocks and branches on the fairways and poor greens. One visitor was unhappy about paying full price while the championship greens were under renovation, so check course status before booking.

Pace of play gets praise, with rounds reported at around four hours. Visitors book through the club's online visitor system, choosing a date, number of players and green fee, and the club says it has no joining fee or social green fees. Rates are not published on the page I could read, so confirm prices when booking. A couple of reviewers had issues with cart availability and with the closing time for hire gear, so it is worth calling the reservations team on 07 3267 6333 to check. The clubhouse has a bar and bistro that reviewers rate for food and service, with kids-eat-free Saturday nights mentioned, plus a function centre used for weddings and parties. It suits golfers wanting a long, flat parkland test close to the city.

“Always fun to have a round of golf, but the non-member course is shabby, full of bogs, and lots of debris like big piles of dirt and branches off to the side of most holes. Fairway is not terribly well maintained. If you're not too…”
