Great weather, coupled with three excellent golf courses, make the Suncadia Resort in Washington the premier golf resort in the state and one of the best in the entire Pacific Northwest. The 6,400-acre, master-planned community blends seamlessly into its secluded natural settings. There's no shortage of fun -- and sun -- at Suncadia Resort, Jason Scott Deegan writes.
Mountains or the beach? Really, you can't go wrong with either option. Suncadia Resort in Cle Elum, Wash., and Semiamhoo Resort in Blaine, Wash., set the standard for resort golf the state of Washington. Manageable drives from Seattle, they appeal for reasons beyond golf, Jason Scott Deegan writes.
Some of the world's best courses have been built atop old mining sites. From Streamsong to Pebble Beach Resorts, here are some top courses to seek out.
The Rope Rider Course, one of two golf courses at Suncadia Resort (located 80 miles east of Seattle), is an intriguing layout capable of challenging single-digit handicappers while still being lenient for higher handicappers -- generous fairways accept sprayed tee balls, and open greens allow balls to bounce in and roll toward the hole.
The Seattle area has become as good a golf destination as any area in the Pacific Northwest. From evergreen forests and majestic mountains to the dynamic downtown skyline and the shores of the Puget Sound, the Emerald City delivers varied and vibrant backdrops for golfers. Golf courses may not be near each other, but they're all worth seeking out to create a week of golf you won't soon forget.
