About this course

The Links of GlenEagles sits in Cochrane, Alberta, approximately thirty kilometers west of Calgary in the foothills of the Canadian Rockies. Designed by Canadian architect Les Furber and opened in the mid-1990s, the course occupies rolling terrain that takes advantage of the natural elevation changes and views characteristic of this transition zone between prairie and mountain landscapes. Furber, known for his work across Western Canada, routed the course to incorporate the property's native grasses and contours while creating a links-style experience adapted to the Alberta climate and topography. The layout features wide fairways and large, undulating greens that reflect links design principles, though the setting differs from traditional seaside links venues. Elevation changes throughout the round provide varied perspectives of the surrounding foothills and distant mountain peaks. The course plays across open terrain with strategic bunkering and natural grass hollows that require thoughtful course management. Wind is often a factor given the exposed nature of the property and its proximity to the mountains. GlenEagles operates as a semi-private facility serving both members and daily-fee players in the Calgary region. The course has hosted regional amateur competitions and remains a popular choice for golfers seeking a challenging layout with mountain views. The clubhouse offers standard amenities and dining consistent with Alberta golf clubs of its era and market position.
