monk's three picks · spring 26

THE COURSES most calgarians overlook.

PICK · #01 · BUDGET
cheapest legitimate 18 · weekday
Maple Ridge
$48 · WEEKDAY 18
Calgary's best-value city course. Mature trees, real challenge on 7 and 14, almost never a wait Monday-Wednesday morning. You'll spend less on 18 holes here than parking at Earl Grey.
PICK · #02 · TWILIGHT
summer evenings · 4pm onwards
Cottonwood
$45 · TWILIGHT
Cottonwood drops to $45 after 4pm in summer. Best twilight value in metro Calgary. The 18th green at sunset against the foothills is worth the drive alone.
PICK · #03 · HISTORY
when you need to be impressed
Calgary G&CC
PRIVATE · 1897
Calgary's oldest course. Founded by R.B. Bennett (future PM) and five other founders before the city was a city. Read the full history scrapbook →
