About
Camaloch Golf Course is located within the Puget Sound "Sun Belt," which receives only half of the nearby rainfall of nearby courses. Its location on Camano Island also puts it at an advantage during the summer months when the temperatures rise up to the 90s on the mainland, the golf course stays cool thanks to the coastal breezes. The course first opened with nine holes in 1972 and expanded to an 18-hole course in 1991. Known for its smooth and consistent greens, Camaloch G.C. has long been a local favorite. The layout starts with a gentler front nine that features wide fairways and fewer hazards. The back nine becomes much more difficult with several holes that play over water. Camaloch Golf Course's undulating greens putt fast and true, and they are often accompanied by strategically placed bunkers.

Affected by drought
My first time playing here. The fairways were dormant or dead due to the drought. Would have been a lot better if the fairways had more green grass but being from drought stricken California, I totally understand. Fairways are side by side so we had to contend with a lot of errant balls flying on our fairways...had a couple of close calls with golfers that never learned the word "fore". Greens were in good shape. It was an enjoyable day.
Excellent experience - Excellent Greens
First time I've played this course so everything was new. Course is very well marked with abundant yardage and OB markers. Front nine has wide fairways and only a few hazards. 9th hole over water. Greens are outstanding. Back nine much more difficult with several holes over water on the drive or second shot. Tree lined fairways narrow at times. Abundant directional signs to get to the next hole. Restrooms in middle of course. Oh did I mention the greens are excellent. I would play this course every time out if it wasn't so far from home for me. Proshop attendant called me out by name when I went in to register. Tim used to be at another course that I still play quite a bit. Treated me very well. I would recommend this course to weekend golfers and even those who think they are better than most. Back 9 will challenge them. I highly recommend this course for all levels of players.
SLOW AND A WAR ZONE!
TO EASY TO HIT INTO FAIRWAYS RIGHT AND LEFT. LOTS OF SIDEHILL LIES.
Narrow fairways, but well maintained & fun to play
Course is walkable and has narrow fairways. It has well maintained fairways, bunkers and greens. It's challenging and fun. On the downside, errant shots will cost you balls or put you in another fairway. I think trying it is the only way to determine if it's right for you.
Fun course
Could have been watered a little better but the course was nice and fun to play
Camano Island's secret
I hesitate to be too positive with this review to keep away the masses. Camaloch has great course conditions, interesting well bunkered greens, some thought provoking water features and sneaky length considering the posted yardage. Although there are a few side by side tight holes there is plenty of room to spray the ball around as I found out. A good value that I hope to introduce to a few more friends while playing many more times.
Great course
I just had a great day there. Staff was nice and helpful the whole day, the food was good, facilities were clean, and I golfing decent. No complaints
Camano Island - Camaloch Golf
Lots of different looks front to back. Back nine is way more interesting with water coming into play 5 of 9. great Pro in Gary with management keeping the players always in mind.
Good golf course.
I've enjoyed playing golf at this course!! Everything's perfect.
Well maintained, great greens
Drying out after a long wet winter........greens in good shape after aeration....tee markers need to be moved more frequently to avoid overuse.
Nice greens
As previous reviews have mentioned, greens are just fantastic. Rest of course was nice too and good practice facilities as well. Played it on a Sunday and pace of play was just right. Staff mentioned they planned aeration the next day, closing the course for it.
Good time on this course
I had a good time on this course. Friendly staff and good course for families.
mud tee to green
I can hardly believe the course was allowing people on it. It was too muddy. bet it's a real nice course when dry
plugging and putting
many plugged drives, very nice greens. really looking forward to some drying out the course is very green and is looking good.
Good price - close to home
Course is under fall maintenance now and fairways are being aerated - a little rough but playable Felt rough around greens could have been mowed shorter All and all - nice course and shows maintenance is on top of things
Greens were excellent
It was a great pleasure to play at this time of year in the Pacific Northwest on greens that rolled true. Greens were as nice as you will find around here. Rest of the course was also in great shape. Pace of play was excellent as well. A great place to play.
Nice course to walk or ride.
Course always in good condition even though greens had been plugged recently.
Had a good time at Camaloch
It rained a very little bit. The greens had recently been punched and sanded but still rolled reasonably well in spite of that. The staff was friendly as usual. The fairways were basically good, and the ball rolled out pretty good on drives. I played as a single and the pace of play was very good until slowing on 15 when I caught up with a 4some. Pretty good golf course and can be fairly challenging, more so from the blue tees. Have a good variety of short and fairly long par 4's. The course layout is pretty good although there are some adjacent fairways that can be a little problematic when it is busy. Over all I very much would recommend this course.
