Best value in Seattle!

This course is an incredible value. It's challenging, yet not scary. It was jamb-packed yesterday, yet our total round time was under 5 hours. The staff are friendly, the pros are knowledgable, and they're good teachers of the game. The restaurant has good food at a good price.

The only cons are the occaisional presence of standing water or mud on some holes. But, for the money - especially through Golf Now - this is the best course value in Puget Sound.

a pace to grow old

I like the Auburn course. Really. But every time I play there on a weekend I swear I'll never go back. After the first hole we waited on every shot on every hole for the whole round. It was painful. We saw a marshal once... only when a member of our group called the pro shop and complained. It's no way to play. Oh, and the set up is quite unfair to women golfers. They might as well play form the white tees for all the break they get on distance. If you want to play as a couple go somewhere else.

Course still saturated from recent rains. Carts restricted to paths. Pace of play was excellent and the restaurant was a pleasant surprise. Definitely recommend stopping in for a beverage and the double bacon BLT.

It's always good to be on the course. Auburn is a fun course and is usually in good shape. The only reason I gave low rating is because Mother Nature was not kind. We had wind, rain, and hail. All of which caused the course to be very wet and sloppy. We will play it again later in the year because I know Auburn to be a fair and fun track.

Excellent local course

Excellent local course, well-maintained and it is well managed. The course Marshal was personable, gracious, and fair. The restaurant and bar are outstanding. The only drawback is that there is no driving range.

Not bad for April

For $17.00 with cart you can't beat the deal. I declined the cart as I prefer to walk but that is still a great price. The course was in pretty good shape for early April. Usually it's still a bit soggy. The greens still showed signs from aeration but were not too bumpy. Overall a decent value.

Auburn is still as slow as ever

We played in a Friday morning and the course was still packed full of people with tee times that are to close together. We waited on every single tee box and after every shot. We saw fivesomes and even a group of 6 playing in front of us. There was a cart girl out there, but we didn't see her until the 14th hole and the restaurant was closed for a remodel, so there was no where to buy anything to eat or drink. The marshals putted around but never asked anyone to pick up their pace of play. Basically, it was just Auburn living up to its reputation.

A first time at a course to warm up my game

Overall I was glad I made the drive to play. I booked as a single assuming I would be matched up with another 2- or 3-some, but this did not happen. All greens were sanded to get them ready for "the season." I wasn't aware of this before I registered, but understand the need to do so. No driving range and the "driving box / net" was not very helpful and a bit muddy, so I just hit 3 balls. Snacks were coffee and some packaged foods & muffins. Biggest irritant was with the pro shop staff, who (otherwise quite friendly) repeatedly took phone calls (answered and made me wait) while we were in the middle of dealing with my payment process. I think this is inappropriate if staff is already dealing with a customer. In other words, answer the phone by all means, but ask the caller to wait because you're dealing with a customer.

Auburn

Great course, live generally speaking fairly close. Would consider making Auburn my home course. I play here once a month. Although greens were plugged, still rolled fairly true. Will be awesome in a month or so. Love this course. Staff is awesome. Staff was awesome.

great greens!

Course was in great shape for this early in the season. Surprisingly! Restaurant was closed though, which was a bummer.... :( And it sure seemed like the course Marshall didn't have anything better to do except practice golf on empty greens, and follow us around quite a bit. But it was nice playing there overall. We'll come back.

Played before and will play again

I have played here a number of times and before the course was revamped it wasn't a good course now it plays like a new course.

When the restaurant/lounge gets open will be better.

Snails pace

The restaurant has been shut down, the GC has no liquor license which meant no beer and no beverage cart. The course was over 30 minutes behind tee time schedule. First 9 holes took 3 hours (over 3.5hrs from actual scheduled tee time). We paid for 18 holes, but left after 9 due to the horrific pace of play.
