What to Expect: Designed by heralded Canadian architect Thomas McBroom, Tobiano is located on dramatic terrain above Kamloops Lake. Big elevation changes, bluff-lined fairways, great conditioning, and forced carries over ravines are all calling cards at Tobiano, as is the occasional blind shot. With impressive lake views and holes that mainly run parallel to the water, similarities can be seen between this Canadian gem and Pete Dye's Wisconsin creation at Whistling Straits. The fairways are generous overall, which can assist players that may be contending with the Aleutian wind off the lake. The engaging terrain at Tobiano makes walking the course an unrealistic scenario for most golfers, but it does provide plenty of elevation changes and the hole designs are an awesome combination of fun, challenging, and memorable. With five par threes to contend with, a multiple of memorable shots, and Kodak moments throughout, Tobiano is surely the treasure of Kamloops!
