Moose Meadows Golf & Country offers seven holes for golfing. Descriptions are as follows:
HOLE #1 - I THINK I CAN (87 yards): This hole was a natural fit for the course as it used the feature of the hill to increase its difficulty. The two spruce trees that surround the green often come into play to obstruct players from going for the hole. When first built in 1995 there was also a pine tree that was removed in 2000 as a porcupine decided it looked appetizing! When playing the hole, one must aim for the left side (house side). Try not to hit too long, as it is an extremley tough chip, or putt down the hill. Due to the difficulty level, this hole, although a par 3, is often called the shortest par 4 a person would ever play.
HOLE #2 - LAKEVIEW (151 yards): One of the most picturesque holes on the course. This hole is used during the tournament for a $10,000 Hole-in-One contest sponsored by Collins-Barrow. It features a sand trap on the right side of the green that gets frequent usage! Often this hole is used as a driving range, as it has a wide fairway and plays over 150 yards. Wind off the lake can also play havoc for high shots, as it can move the ball in varying directions. The green is a tough one to 'stick' as there is a slight downhill break on the back that directs balls off the back side.

HOLE #3 - THE FINALE (TBA yards): This hole is a hidden gem and was inspired by a natural clearing. This hole will allow golfers to become closer with nature at Hazlett Lake. After playing this hole golfers will be treated to a meandering path towards the 'Mighty Mulligan'. During the tournament, this path also ends with a refreshing Ceaser!
HOLE #4 - MULLIGAN ALLEY (157 yards): This hole is appropriately named as the narrow fairway does not allow any errant shots. Considered by many to be an extremely tough challenge, it feels fantastic when a great shot is made. During the 'Annual Moose Meadows Tournament', complimentary Caesars are provided to help golfers feel "more confident" at the tee. Rough is non-existant on this hole as the forrest prevents any relief.
HOLE #5 - PEANUT PERIL (88 yards): A fun, short hole, that requires a precision tee shot to have any chance for a birdie. Golfers need to aim to the left of the green as it has a big slope feeding to the "peanut shaped" sand trap. The hole is bordered to the left with a grove of spruce trees and farm antiques. Golfers are also treated with a picturesque flower garden. These features make this hole perfect for a showpiece of the course.
HOLE #6 - CLEAR CUT (138 yards): A fantastic modification was done to this hole to incorporate a creek into the scenery of the course. Originally two bridges were constructed leading to and from the hole, but was reduced to one in 2005. The original tee box across the creek was later moved back another 25 yards to create an extremely scenic shot. When building the tee box, the fallen trees were left to incorporate a more natural feel to this hole.
HOLE #7 - SASKATOON TEE (139 yards): In 1999 a tee box was constructed out of railway ties. A grove of saskaoon bushes needs to be flown over in order to be sucessful from the blue tee. The green is located on a slight downhill and a great shot is required to land the ball about 10 yards ahead of the green.
HOLE #8 - ROCKY ROAD (75 yards): Of the entire course, this was the toughest hole to build. It involved extensive tree & stump removal. During this process it was discovered this hole lies on top of a gravel pit, hence the name 'Rocky Road'. The natural bank provides a nice view of Highway 2.
HOLE #9 - POPLAR AVENUE (164 yards): This was the last hole made on the course in 1997, that was a natural it for its location. After finishing #6 prior golfers would have to walk back and pass an old hay field. Building this hole allowed for continuous play to occur right back to the start of the course!
