Do you know where this scene was filmed? If you do, please email me at webmaster@themoviedistrict.com. Full credit will be given to you. Thank you.
Note from the Webmaster: Although this house is pictured as being located at the end of grandma’s street, it really isn’t, making it much harder to pinpoint.

I have golfed Swanee several times, and the Waterbury Open doesn’t look like Swanee. The AT&T Open is 100% Swanee. I’m 90% certain the two tournaments were filmed at different locations.

Is it entirely possible to determine what architect designed Happy Gilmore’s grandma’s house (located in Vancouver)? Would love to acquire a name & contact info. Truly, the house of my dreams!!
The architect was Happy Gilmore’s Grandpa. he built it with his barehands.
His grandpa is a liar.
The final shots were filmed in Vancouver’s VanDusen botanical gardens.
Andrew is right. Parts of the Waterbury Open were not filmed at Swan-E-Set – the first and last holes were actually filmed at Riverway Golf Course in Burnaby but the middle ones appear to be Swan-E-Set though. I know because I recognize the clubhouse at Riverway on hole #1. 🙂
Also, the scenes that were shot at Riverway include:
– the driving range scenes with the 2 tiered tee off areas (see link below)
– the first time he sees Shooter McGavin with the tour president
– when he’s having lunch with coach after the 18th hole
They actually shift between Riverway and Swan-E-Set during the Waterbury Open.

Wow.. highly confusing to say the least!
I was in the golf business in the 90s when they were filming. I witnessed all the filming. The following golf courses where where it was filmed at;
– swaneeset
– riverway
– peace portal
– furry creek
I thought I recognized point grey or shaughnessg but am not positive.
