About
Covering an area approximately 109 acres (46 hectares), Maryborough Golf Club, formerly Royal
Park Maryborough Golf Links, is 1.5 km down the Dunolly Road from the traffic lights at the
northern end of the shopping centre.
The 18 hole course is set midst a picturesque scene of gums, wattles and other native plants.
The Course is gently undulating, accommodating all fitness levels and age groups.
Established
In 1854 it was the site of the Gold Commissioner's Camp and was known as Commissioner's flat.
A monument to Commissioner James Daly, who named Maryborough after his Birth place in Ireland,
is a short distance from the Club House. The area was proclaimed a public Park in 1862 and
Gazetted a permanent Reserve in 1863.
The Clubhouse was built in June 1911 and the first Trophy Match of the Maryborough Golf Club
with twelve competitions, was played in October of the year.
