The Empangeni Country Club was formed in the early 1900's. By the late 1980's, Peter Matkovich was commissioned to inspect and suggest changes to the course. Apart from minor changes suggested by him, the course itself has remained very similar to the original layout.
The 18 hole golf course is beautifully maintained with a number of challenging holes. The fairways consist mainly of the local indiginous Nkwaleni grass with the greens having a mixture of Country Club and Cynoden grasses.
Water for the course comes mainly from a storage dam (situated between the 2nd and 3rd fairways) and a borehole. The tee boxes and greens receive most of this water and the fairways rely on natural rainfall.
