This course, of nine par 4 holes on beautiful hillside turf, has many natural hazards including a burn which features on four of the nine holes. Although devoid of bunkers it is nevertheless a challenge to golfers of all abilities. There are decisions to be made on every tee and each following shot has to take account of the rugged terrain in order to reach the well-constructed and well-maintained small greens.
There is also a 5-hole Putting Green.

The original 18-hole Dollar Golf Course was designed by Ben Sayers.
He felt there were enough natural hazards and so did not construct any bunkers.
In 1906 the Ladies Golf Club and the Gents Club came together on Dollar Bank, part of Harviestoun Estate, as Dollar Golf Club, and were there until 2019, when, due to falling membership, the Club closed.
In July 2020 Dollar Golf Course was established and has retained nine holes which are open to a new generation of golfers.
