Boat of Garten Golf Club

The Boat Of Garten Golf Course was initially established as a 6-hole layout in 1898, which was then expanded to an 8-hole course in 1910. In 1930, additional land was rented, paving the way for the legendary golf course architect James Braid to design the 18-hole course that officially opened in 1932.

In subsequent years, the course underwent several modifications, including the relocation of the 14th tee to create a dogleg in 1980, the purchase of the land by the club in 1991, and the creation of a new green at the 4th hole in 1994 to convert it to a par 5. The course also saw renovations in 2003 and 2004, with changes to holes 1, 5, and 13, the latter introducing another par 5.

Located in the Cairngorms National Park near Aviemore, the course is set alongside the River Spey. The Braid-designed course is comprised of 18 distinct holes with fairways lined by birch trees, heather, and broom, utilizing the terrain to present a challenging round of golf.

Notable course milestones include celebrating its centenary in 1998, re-contouring the 1st hole's green and re-siting tees in 2009, and modernising the Lounge & Bar area in 2019. This speaks to the club's commitment to both maintaining the historic nature of the course and ensuring its facilities meet contemporary standards.
