Mount Gambier Golf Club
About
Overview & Vibe
The Mount Gambier Golf Club has played at Attamurra since 1909, five minutes from the city centre on what were once rolling sand hills. Its clubhouse doubles as one of the Limestone Coast's larger function rooms, and weddings lead the list of what it hosts. This is a club function centre rather than a dedicated wedding venue — straightforward, well equipped, and priced as room hire rather than as a package.
Setting & Style
The club describes a modern clubhouse with a spacious bar, seating for up to 140, and views over the course, all air conditioned. A second, smaller function room sits alongside it with its own private bar, for groups too small for the main room. The outlook is the course itself: an 18-hole par 72 of Santa Ana couch fairways and large greens through native and exotic trees, with elevated tees and a signature par-3 8th looking back toward the Centenary Tower.
Ideal For
Couples marrying in Mount Gambier who want a large, air-conditioned room with a bar and a view, and who are bringing their own styling. The two-room structure means a small wedding is not marooned in a hall built for 140. The same facilities carry conferences — projector, whiteboards, microphone and internet are all available — which is a fair signal of what the room is set up to do.
The Need-to-Knows
This is a reception room, not a ceremony venue. The club publishes nothing about ceremony locations, a garden or an outdoor space for vows, so plan the ceremony elsewhere or ask. No pricing is on the current page — site hire is charged for both rooms but the figures were removed when the page was rewritten, so ask for them. There is no accommodation on site, and no published dietary, catering or beverage detail: the club says only “let us design a package to suit your needs.” Everything runs through the office on 08 8725 7739, open weekdays 9am to 3pm.
Standout Feature
Space and light for 140 with the course through the windows, in a town where the alternatives are mostly historic rooms without a view. And the small room with its own bar — a genuinely useful second option rather than a partitioned corner of the first.

On Site Accommodation
Price Notes
- SITE HIRE IS CHARGED FOR BOTH ROOMS BUT THE AMOUNTS ARE NO LONGER PUBLISHED. The live venue hire page — the one the site's navigation links — reads "Site Hire: Small Room or Main Room" and stops there. An orphaned older copy of the same page, reachable only through the sitemap, retains "Site Hire: Small Room $150.00 - Main Room $250.00". Because the current page kept the sentence and removed only the figures, those amounts are treated as SUPERSEDED and are recorded here purely as history, not as prices to rely on. Ask the office for current rates. WHAT THE LIVE PAGE DOES COMMIT TO: a modern clubhouse with a spacious bar, seating for up to 140, views over the course and air conditioning throughout; a second smaller function room with its own private bar for smaller groups; conference facilities including a projector, white boards, a microphone and internet; and an open offer to "design a package to suit your needs". Enquiries go to admin@mtgambiergc.com.au or 08 8725 7739, with the administration office open Monday to Friday 9am to 3pm. NOT RECORDED, AND WHY: the superseded page carries a block on Madd Bites at Attamurra, the club's dining operator, listing Friday dinner and Wednesday lunch service, grazing platters, gift baskets, venue catering and two mobile numbers. It also references covid capacity restrictions, and it has been removed from the live page — so it is treated as stale rather than as the club's current catering arrangement. Confirm who caters before assuming.
- THIS IS A GOLF CLUB FUNCTION ROOM, NOT A DEDICATED WEDDING VENUE, and the site reflects that: the wedding content totals roughly 710 characters on one page, weddings are listed alongside engagements, birthdays, corporate and social functions, and the rest of the domain is membership fees, fixtures, reciprocal courses and the pro shop. The club has played here since 1909; the course is an 18-hole par 72 of just over 6,000m with Santa Ana couch fairways, large greens, elevated tees and a course enhancement program by Crafter and Mogford Golf Strategies.
