GOLFBOX was built with community at the center. Operating 24/7 on Westbank First Nation Land, our space blends modern golf technology with design elements inspired by the land and culture around us. We’re more than a place to practice — we’re a gathering space where neighbours connect, families spend time together, and players of all levels feel welcome.
Booking is simple. Choose your bay type, select your date and time, and book online in just a few clicks. Sessions are booked by the hour, and you’ll have full access to the bay for the duration of your booking.
Yes. GOLFBOX is open around the clock so you can play early mornings, late nights, or anytime that fits your schedule. Whether you’re squeezing in practice before work or meeting friends after hours, the doors are always open.
Our simulators use high speed cameras and advanced tracking systems to measure ball speed, spin, launch angle, club path, and more. This data creates a highly accurate virtual ball flight, giving you a realistic golf experience indoors — whether you’re practicing, playing a full round, or working on specific skills.
Most players bring their own clubs, but we also offer loaner sets for guests who need them. All clubs are welcome except for drivers or wedges with damaged faces that could harm the screens. Golf balls and tees will be provided by GOLFBOX. We recommend that all players use the golf balls provided to protect the screen. If you do choose to use your own, they must be clean and unmarked (no sharpie).
Wear something comfortable that allows you to swing freely. Golf shoes are optional — clean indoor shoes or runners work perfectly. We simply ask that footwear is clean and dry to protect the turf.
A good rule of thumb is one hour per person for 18 holes.
• 1 player → ~1 hour
• 2 players → ~2 hours
• 4 players → ~4 hours
If you’re practicing on the range or working on drills, you can use your time however you like.
Each bay comfortably fits up to 4 players. We’ve designed the space with bar height tables and seating so everyone can relax, watch, and enjoy the experience together.
Absolutely. GOLFBOX is built for everyone — from first timers to scratch golfers. Beginners often find simulators less intimidating than a full course, and the instant feedback helps you learn faster.
You’ll have access to a wide selection of world class courses, including championship layouts, scenic international tracks, and fun, casual options. You can also choose from driving ranges, short game areas, and skill building games.
Not yet — but it’s part of our vision for the future of GOLFBOX. As we grow, we plan to partner with local teaching professionals to offer lessons, coaching sessions, and skill building programs right here in our bays. Our goal is to create a space where players of all levels can learn, improve, and connect with knowledgeable instructors from our community.
If you’re interested in lessons down the road, keep an eye on our updates — coaching will be one of the first new features we introduce as GOLFBOX expands.
Booking ahead is recommended, especially during evenings and weekends. However, if a bay is open, walk ins are always welcome.
