Formerly known as Rosebud Park Public Golf Course, Bay Views Golf Course was given a significant new millennium facelift by Peter Thomson and Ross Perrett, with holes 11 to 13 in particular reworked by the architects.
The course is laid out within a property of around 110 acres, extending to almost 5,300 metres from the back tees, with par set at 70 (36 out then 34 in). Holes are set as returning nines – #11 to #17 occupy a separate “compartment” to the north of the others – and there are three par threes and only one par five on the inward half.
Highlight holes include the first of the short holes at the downhill 3rd; the short par four 9th (golfers can’t see the base of the flag when playing their approach shot); the left doglegging par five 13th (where players enjoy views of Port Philip Bay from the highest point on the course); and the long par four 18th (rated stroke index 1) which has out of bounds on the left before the fairway reaches a false fronted home green.

Peter Thomson worked for Spalding in Melbourne designing golf balls, which he tested himself, before going on to become the only golfer in the 20th century to lift the Claret Jug three times in succession.
