After two previously unsuccessful attempts to start a golf club in the township of Merimbula a public meeting was called in August 1965 resulting in the formation of the Pambula-Merimbula Country Golf Club. The name would later to be changed to Pambula Merimbula Golf Club.

An application to the Crown Lands Department a lease was granted to the club of 52 acres on which to build a clubhouse and golf course.

A small timber clubhouse and nine hole sand greens course was completed by volunteer labour the following year with the first competition held on 15^th May.

From these humble beginnings the club developed into a 27 hole course with a large modern clubhouse which has attracted many discerning golfers to the Far South Coast and is currently listed in the Top 100 Public Access Courses in Australia.
