About this course

The Links at Swan-e-set Bay Resort & Country Club occupies low-lying terrain in Pitt Meadows, approximately 40 kilometers east of Vancouver in the Fraser Valley. Designed by Lee Trevino and opened in the mid-1990s, the course represents the six-time major champion's foray into golf course architecture in the Pacific Northwest. The layout takes its name from a links-inspired design philosophy, though the setting differs markedly from traditional seaside links terrain, situated instead on reclaimed marshland near the confluence of the Pitt and Fraser Rivers. The routing works across relatively flat ground with water hazards factoring prominently throughout the round, a characteristic of courses built on this type of Fraser Valley bottomland. Trevino's design incorporates wide fairways and large, undulating greens that reward strategic positioning, reflecting his playing philosophy of managing angles and avoiding trouble. The course sits within a resort property that includes lodging and event facilities, making it a destination for both local golfers and visitors to the Vancouver metropolitan area. The surrounding landscape offers views toward the Coast Mountains to the north, and the course's exposure to valley weather patterns means conditions can vary considerably depending on season and precipitation. Swan-e-set serves both resort guests and members, hosting regional amateur competitions and corporate outings throughout the year. The facility emphasizes accessibility while maintaining championship-length tees that extend the challenge for accomplished players.

Getting there

The journey to Swan-e-set Bay Resort & Country Club begins at Vancouver International Airport (YVR), a swift forty-minute drive east through the Fraser Valley's pastoral lowlands. The route traces the meandering course of the Pitt River, trading the urban density of Greater Vancouver for the open skies and farmland of Pitt Meadows, where the Coast Mountains rise dramatically to the north. As you cross into this quiet corner of the valley, the road narrows and the landscape softens, delivering you to the resort's gates on the shores of Pitt Lake - a serene, mountain-framed sanctuary that feels worlds removed from the city left behind.
