TSAWWASSEN SPRINGS GOLF
🇨🇦 Tsawwassen, British Columbia, CA
Designed by Ted Locke
Tsawwassen Springs occupies a distinctive position in the southwestern corner of British Columbia, situated on the Tsawwassen peninsula approximately thirty kilometers south of Vancouver. Designed by Canadian architect Ted Locke and opened in the late 1990s, the course takes advantage of flat to gently rolling terrain characteristic of the Fraser River delta region. The layout incorporates natural water features and mature tree corridors that define playing corridors across the property.
The routing reflects Locke's approach to designing accessible yet strategic golf courses suited to the Pacific Northwest climate and landscape. Fairways are generally generous, though water hazards—including ponds and drainage channels—come into play on multiple holes, requiring careful course management. The relatively open terrain allows wind to influence play, particularly during spring and fall months when weather patterns move through the Strait of Georgia corridor.
Tsawwassen Springs serves as a public facility in a region with limited daily-fee options, drawing golfers from both the Greater Vancouver area and visitors crossing the nearby border with Washington State. The course's location near the BC Ferries terminal to Vancouver Island and the Tsawwassen Mills shopping complex makes it a convenient stop for travelers. The facility maintains year-round operations, typical of Lower Mainland courses that benefit from the area's mild coastal climate, though winter conditions can affect course presentation and playability during the wettest months.
