About this course

Fort St. John Links Golf Course sits in the Peace River region of northeastern British Columbia, where the town of Fort St. John serves as a service hub for the surrounding oil and gas industry. The course was designed by the Holland family—John Holland working with Len Holland and Jim Holland—who brought their golf architecture practice to this remote corner of the province. The design reflects the practical constraints and opportunities of building golf in a northern climate with a relatively short playing season. The routing takes advantage of the area's gently rolling terrain, characteristic of the Peace River lowlands. The landscape here differs markedly from the mountain courses of southern British Columbia, offering instead open prairie-like vistas with scattered stands of boreal forest. The Hollands worked within these natural features to create a layout that balances playability for the local membership with enough strategic interest to reward thoughtful course management. Fort St. John serves a community that experiences long winter months and celebrates its brief summer golf season accordingly. The course functions as a recreational anchor for residents and workers in the region's resource economy. While it does not host major competitive events or draw destination golf traffic, it represents the northernmost golf options in British Columbia and provides a genuine links-style experience adapted to the unique conditions of Canada's northern interior.
