Food & Beverage Facilities at Mayfair Lakes Clubhouse Closed - Fire Restoration Underway
31st March, 2010

open daily from dawn until dusk. For more information on Mayfair

During the early morning hours of March 18th a suspicious fire
started outside the clubhouse at Mayfair Lakes Golf & Country
Club. The fire spread into the clubhouse, causing extensive damage
to the food & beverage operation, including the Greenside
Banquet Room, kitchen and to a lesser extent the Lakeside Grill.
Fortunately nobody was injured, and no damage was caused to the
golf course or the golf shop.
After an extensive study, the team of investigators and
engineers has now released their assessment. Due to the amount of
structural damage the estimated timeline for complete restoration
is five to six months, however, once the work has significantly
progressed a more accurate completion time will be communicated.
While the kitchen, restaurant and banquet facilities will remain
closed during that time, we are looking at various temporary
solutions to offer a food and beverage experience to our golf
patrons.
“On behalf of the owners, staff and management at
Mayfair Lakes, we appreciate the well wishes and support we have
received over the last two weeks and are doing our best to manage
this difficult situation,” says Mike Smedstad, General
Manager.
Located minutes from downtown Vancouver and the airport, Mayfair
Lakes is an 18-hole, 6,641-yard course designed by Les Furber. It
is known for fast, well-protected greens, lush fairways and
distinctive water, with an inspiring layout that offers a unique
challenge on every hole.
