Metro Vancouver Golf Tee Times in 2025
Golf is a wonderful sport that seems to have increased in popularity over the past few years. With so many new and active golfers, tee times can be difficult to reserve. The purpose of the lists below is to help golfers get the tee times they desire at local public courses. It’s organized by how far in advance you can book tee times at each course (without being charged additional booking fees).
Unless stated otherwise, most places mentioned in this article have an online booking system that adds new tee times at midnight. For the best chance at reserving a tee time, try doing so the moment they’re released.
Note: The following information was last updated in early April of 2025. We’ll try our best to keep the list up-to-date, but details are subject to change.
When Can You Book Tee Times at Vancouver Golf Clubs?
Different clubs let you book different numbers of days in advance. For some, you can book just 2 to 5 days before the day you want to play. Some venues let you reserve a time up to a week in advance. Other places let you book between 10 to 12 days in advance and some even let you book two weeks or more before you plan to play.
The reservation rules are different at each place, which makes it confusing for people who like to try different courses each time they play. Below are lists of the courses that have free 2-6 day, 7-day, 8-12 day and 14+ day reservation policies. We hope this helps reduce the confusion and makes it easier for people when deciding where they want to golf and how far in advance they can plan.

Tee times for courses in the first list below only become available a few days in advance. They can be especially difficult to get.
