The Pauanui Lakes Resort
The Pauanui Lakes Resort golf course has received such high recognition for its quality, course design, layout, and playing surfaces that it has been accepted into the prestigious International Marketing and Promotional group called The Best of Golf New Zealand. Lakes Resort now stands alongside Kauri Cliffs, Cape Kidnappers, Terrace Downs, Wairakei Resort, Gulf Harbour, Formosa, Clearwater and Millbrook as one of the finest Resort Golf Courses in the country.
Since its completion golfing professionals, players and course evaluators throughout New Zealand have raved about the course’s unique natural design. This 100 hectare tract borders protected conservation areas and embraces 20 hectares of natural wetlands.
Ten and a half kilometres of cart paths meander through the course and over charming stone bridges to link fairways.
Lakes Resort’s championship 6171 meter par 71 layout is definitely a player’s course. A tribute to its brilliant designers Canadians Sid Puddicombe Associates.
The whole idea was to create a course that can be a formidable test, challenging but not impossible. Inspired by the perfection of nature itself.
