windy, but could be worse.

Everyone said "it always blows here" Today it was only 10-15mph. The crowds were light, the day sunny, Mount Baker in the distance. Very nice.

Good GolfNow Value

I was pleased with my choice to book this tee-time. Had a chance to stop and have lunch in the clubhouse, food was good and well priced. The atmosphere was very friendly, the cart girls were very efficient and frequent. The golf was quite good, the course is well maintained and the greens were quick but held well. I hadn't played N. Bellingham for many years and was quite pleased with the fact the hay on the sides of the fairways had been recently cut down, reduced searching time for my playing partners' balls. Nice course, nice day!

I liked the course. Open links style with grass to steal your ball.

It was my first time playing the course and I will be coming back more often!

Course was in great shape

Other than a slow pace of play everything else was really good. Unusually challenging pin positions, must have been an angry greens keeper.

Great layout, open but enjoyable.

Course was in great condition, it rained ealier in the day and we were very impressed with drainage on course. Enjoyed the layout and it was a very fin course to play. For Canadians, I would compare it to the Northview Canal course.

Phenomenal condition and great layout for a super price

North Bellingham has clearly been spending some money on course maintenance. It drains beautifully after a heavy rainfall and the fairways and greens are exceptional, putting much more expensive courses to shame. The layout is lots of fun without being punishing and it's a great walk, if that's your preference. Highly recommended!!

A great golf experience

Greens in good condition, fairways as well. Moderately
challenging, open links style course without any residential
encroachment. A great day of golf with very little wind which
could be a factor on this style of course. Good food facilities.
Pro shop lacking in social graces!

Course management is challenged on all 18 holes

No tricks, just a solid well maintained golf course. Your appetite is whetted as you stand on the tee wondering how to navigate your way to the green.A real gem in the Bellingham area.

bad experience/fantastic course

I found a last minute deal on the app and raced down from Canada to make the tee time. This had been my first time using the app and was unaware I had to print off my paperwork and bring it with me. The guy in the pro shop was immediately defensive when I didn't have "the paperwork". You would think in this day in age of technology everything would get processed securely through a system and producing ID would be enough. The round was a "hot deal" and came with power cart. This apparently didn't come through their system either and a "fine whatever" and put the key on the desk and I was on my way. As I'm leaving the pro shop a regular says to the guy at the front desk " I have to get out of here there are too many Canadians here today". That is nice, the same Canadians that make up for probably 50% of the rounds played that day. I love this course and an all around great value for the money. I may have caught the kid on a bad day or maybe it's because I'm "Canadian" and so difficult to tolerate on a beautiful Sunday afternoon.
