Up on the sage mesa just north of Penticton, Wow Golf Club has an Arizona-desert feel rare for the Okanagan, with unobstructed panoramic views over the city and Okanagan Lake from a compact 9-hole, par-34 layout. It's a quicker, looser round than the valley's championship courses, well suited to golfers who want good views and good practice without committing to a full afternoon. The practice facility is the draw here: a large range with both covered and uncovered mats, plus a combined chipping and putting area, making it a solid stop purely to work on your short game.
