Assistant Superintendent

Company Overview
Brewster’s Golf, Kananaskis Ranch, only 20 minutes down the road from the beautiful Town of Canmore, exists to take you places, both literally and figuratively. For over 125 years, the Brewsters have been introducing travellers to some of the most spectacular locations and experiences in the Alberta Rocky Mountains.

Brewster’s Golf, Kananaskis Ranch, is the realization of a dream held by 4th-generation cowboy and entrepreneur Bud Brewster. This unique 18-hole golf course is situated at the base of Yamnuska Mountain and follows the moraines along the north bank of the Bow River. The Par 72 layout extends to an unassuming 5,606 yards of play that winds its way through the rugged, tree-lined terrain of the mountain ranch that Bud grew up on. The design prioritizes accuracy off the tee, but also offers players several risk-reward opportunities. Several water hazards and bunkers further add to the challenge, protecting the well-conditioned greens. The course provides visitors with exceptional mountain vistas and an abundance of wildflowers throughout the season.
