Course Introduction and History
This semi-private Kelowna golf course was designed by the renowned designer Les Furber, and was finished in 1996.

Beginners can feel in their element, as the Pinnacle Course is made to be gentle enough for them.
Amenities and Services
If there's anything you need before the game, be sure to visit the club's pro shop. There you will find a large variety of items, from golf equipment to accessories for the game to clothing items for both men and women. If you don't want to purchase equipment, and you would rather rent it, the shop can accommodate that as well. Lastly, if you'd like some leisure items or some souvenirs to remind you of the experience, they're all there waiting for you.
Lessons are offered at the Pinnacle course. You can choose to be taught one-on-one for $85 an hour, $225 for three hours, $430 for six hours, or $840 for twelve hours. The more students you bring with you, the less each will have to pay. For example, the rate for one hour for two students is $50 per person, while it’s $40 per person for three students. The last option, for four students, comes at the cost of $35 per individual.
Becoming a member will grant you a number of privileges. As a member, you can get full play and full use of the facilities at the clubhouse privileges, which means that you can practice the game on your own.
