Whitefish Lake Golf Club – South

Whitefish Lake Golf Club’s South Course in Whitefish, Montana, is a public 18-hole course designed by William Hull in 1984, spanning 6,400 yards with a par of 72, a rating of 70.8, and a slope of 126. Located near Whitefish Lake with views of the Flathead Valley, it features tighter fairways than the North Course, with water hazards and bunkers adding challenge. The club offers a shared pro shop, dining, and practice facilities, known for its welcoming vibe and scenic setting, as noted in GolfPass reviews.

The South Course plays as a slightly tougher counterpart to the North, with narrower fairways demanding accuracy off the tee, like the par-4 12th with its dogleg and water hazard. X users highlight the par-3 8th for its scenic carry over water and tricky pin placements. The greens are fast and undulating, testing short-game precision. Golfers on X call it “a fun, affordable challenge,” ideal for mid-handicappers who can hit straight but engaging for all with its mix of risk-reward holes and mountain views.
