Kerang Golf Club – RV & Caravan Stay & Play in Victoria’s Lakes District
Discover one of the Murray Valley’s most welcoming ‘stay and play’ destinations at the Kerang Golf Club. Renowned for its friendly atmosphere and superb sand scrape course, the club extends a warm invitation to caravan and RV travellers to park up and enjoy the unique combination of top-quality country golf and the natural beauty of Victoria’s lakes district. This isn’t just a stopover; it’s a recreational hub where you can immerse yourself in your favourite sport, relax in a peaceful setting, and explore a region famous for its spectacular wetlands and birdlife. The convenience of having your accommodation just a stone’s throw from the first tee is an unbeatable experience for any travelling golfer.
The club offers powered sites for a modest fee, providing a comfortable and affordable base for your adventures. The 18-hole course is the star of the show, consistently rated as one of the best sand scrape courses in the state. It offers a true test of skill, with its watered fairways and challenging layout. After your round, the clubhouse is the social heart of the club, where you can enjoy a cold drink, share stories with fellow golfers and friendly locals, and soak in the relaxed country vibe. Beyond the course, Kerang is a paradise for nature lovers. It’s located at the heart of the North Central Victorian irrigation district, surrounded by lakes and marshes that form part of the internationally significant Kerang Wetlands system. This makes it an ideal spot for birdwatching, fishing, and kayaking. With the town of Kerang providing all necessary supplies just a few minutes down the road, the Kerang Golf Club is the complete package for a memorable and active getaway.
