Clubhouse Restaurant Manager: Creston Golf Club

Clubhouse Restaurant Manager: Creston Golf Club Established in 1954, the Creston Golf Club is a hidden gem of the Kootenays, situated in the lush Creston Valley of British Columbia. Perched on a benchland overlooking the valley floor, the course is renowned for its stunning panoramic views of the Selkirk and Purcell Mountain ranges. The region’s unique "micro climate" often referred to as the "Valley of the Swans" provides a longer, sunnier playing season than much of the province, allowing the fairways and greens to thrive in a landscape defined by rolling terrain and mountain vistas. The town of Creston itself is a vibrant agricultural hub, famous for its fresh produce, orchards and vineyards. Over the decades, the course has matured into a championship-caliber facility, blending the charm of its 1950s roots with modern refinements. Recent major upgrades to the greens, fairways, and a state-of-the-art driving range have solidified its reputation as a destination course, drawing golfers from across Western Canada to experience the serene, high-mountain beauty of the Kootenay River valley. Our Competitive Edge: A Course in Peak Condition: A total transformation of our fairways and greens has elevated the course to a premier standard, resulting in significant year-over-year growth in green fee revenue. Our elite Course Superintendent recently committed to a long-term contract, ensuring that these exceptional conditions and the resulting increase in patronage will continue to improve. Major Infrastructure Upgrades: We have just completed a significant overhaul of our Driving Range Facility and will be cutting the ribbon at the start of the 2026 season. Transitioning from mats to a brand-new professional grade grass hitting deck that allows for significantly more golfers in a much more enjoyable fashion will serve as another "customer funnel" for our clubhouse. More carts will be purchased including a refurbished beverage cart. Continued Growth: With over $1.3 million in annual golf revenue and growing out-of-town traffic, the clubhouse is perfectly positioned to capture "post-round" spend from a high-volume, and inclined demographic.
