Allenmore Golf Course is located in the heart of Tacoma but thanks to the beautiful setting with Mt. Rainier serving as a backdrop, it feels like it's actually miles from the city. The layout is just over 6,000 yards from the back tees and though it's not particularly long, it offers plenty of variety. It's a course where you'll have to use every club in your bag. Trouble lurks at almost every turn in the form of doglegs, trees, or out-of-bounds. Water hazards also come into play. With uphill, sidehill, and downhill lies, the course is never boring and while there are some challenging holes, there are also birdie opportunities if you play strategically. In addition to the golf course, Allenmore also has a short-iron driving range and a practice facility with chipping and putting greens.

Still slow paced.

5 hours to play this course. Marshall said he warned the group 2 groups ahead of us 3 times. How about having them stop and let faster players through? Bunkers were all compacted dirt, had not been raked in a few days. $75 to play this is too high!

First Time @ Allenmore

First time playing Allenmore. Staff was super friendly and gracious. Shout out to Brandon in the To Go Window. He was super friendly and goes above and beyond. Also, while waiting at the first tee, he can call the way out to deliver food to the group in front of me. Super awesome dude.

The course was in great shape. I'm no course snob but the course looked great to me. Tee boxes were good and level (for the most part), fairways were in good condition with few (if any) bare spots, greens were rolling fast and in good shape (though they'll be punching next week... second week of April?). The rough was challenging... It's short but pretty thick and I lost quite a few balls so it definitely puts a premium on accurate tee shots.

I'll definitely play here again. Thanks, Allenmore!

Love Allenmore...but wait for it dry out.

This was the second time playing here. I love the layout. It a real challenge for me. The day I played though showed just how rough this winter has been. Tons of water on the course. Weather they can't do anything about but drainage and course conditions they could probably do better. If you are going to play I would maybe wait for things to dry out more.

A Little Frosty

I came in thinking there might be a frost delay, no delay and they allowed me to go out a little sooner. I got 18 in less than 3 hours.

Wet Conditions, Good Weather, Good play

We were a two some as some other twosome did not show. Don't know why, it was sunny and clear skies. The course was soft and wet so no roll out and soft greens. The greens are slow when morning wet conditions are there. So, you need to take half the break you see and hit it firm. The course layout is ok, back and forth mainly. Most hole play best from the left fairway, but be aware of which way the fairways tilt as the ball may take that direction. Not as much in the winter but a lot in the summer. The restaurant and bar up above is very nice with good food and drinks. Worth the trip and coming back.

May be last time for a while

Pace of play was atrocious. Over 2.5 hours for 9 holes. No course Marshall telling people to speed up. I may not be back for a while.

Not good

Poor pace of play. Expensive. No Marshall out on course on a Saturday. Paid for 18, left after 9 holes (3 hours) due to 3 groups waiting on each hole. Pathetic

Great course

Very nice course. Greens were perfect speed not to fast not to slow. Fairways were lush and green. Pace of play was great. Just wish they had some nets up so you could hit a driver at the “driving range” area they have. I can’t believe I’ve never played here before.

Over 5 hours.

5 hours 20 minutes is way too long. I know it was a nice day, but this was ridiculous. First cart girl I saw, I asked her how she was doing. Proceeded to gripe about getting change as a tip!

I have played here often, it's in great shape and has been well maintained. I would recommend because of course conditions, value, and the restaurant.
