Overview
A must-play public course in Washington for its scenic views and strong conditioning. Towering trees frame most holes and require a golfer to keep their tee shots in play, with little recovery options given off some fairways.

“Scenic layout with a lot of variety. Perpetually soft conditions hamper the enjoyment and limit shot options."

Review
“The superlatives are high on this strong public course. The only drawback is the course sits on the mountain and retains a lot of water for the majority of the year. It plays longer than the scorecard states and can be very punitive off the tee at times too. That said, this is a really great course and an absolute must play public option in the Seattle area with great shot options and strategy, coupled with pristine aesthetics."

“Good routing through PNW forest with occasional views. Large sloping greens will challenge your approach and short game. Very hilly course, especially between holes, so I don’t recommend walking if even allowed."

“Very good use of the topography. A courageous design that ended up being successful in providing compelling shot values. Conditioning of the fairways and greens is excellent for the Pacific Northwest."
