Located just 20 minutes south of Tacoma, Eagles Pride Golf Course in Fort Lewis is one of the area's best golfing values. Originally opened as the 18-hole Fort Lewis Golf Course in 1940, it soon became known as one of the best military courses in the country but it's also open to the public. Another nine was added to the layout in 1979. The three nines, known as the Red, Blue, and Green, are played in different 18-hole combinations. The Red/Blue Course is the original layout. The classic design is player friendly but at the same time challenging with an abundance of trees lining the fairways and greens as well as tricky elevation changes that make it tough to find a flat lie. Each hole offers plenty of variety.

Previously known as Red/Blue at Fort Lewis Golf Course.

Good value

Great course. Fun to play. A little long for a high handicapper but I liked the challenge. Pace of play was very slow. Morning tournament scheduled and too many tee times stacked up right behind it. No Marshall to keep things moving that we saw. A few groups baled past us with four holes left as they were tired of being bunched up at each tee box. This could have been a one off occurance bc of the tournament. Backside restrooms were closed.

Again loved the course but 5 hours and 45 minute rounds aren’t my preference.

The only thing I would mention is that the cart paths are getting rough. Otherwise everything from the pro shop to the finishing 18 holes was truly enjoyable.

Great fun course. No restrooms available on the course.

My wife and I played here yesterday, for first time. It’s a long course. We had lots of fun. The only negative thing was that the restrooms on the 11 th holes were closed and there were no alternative honey buckets were available. That was a big inconvenience for the golfers playing 18 holes.

Great course, very slow play

Love this course, but pace of play is almost always a problem. The problem yesterday was a group of older players that refused to play faster. The Marshall told us it was a language and cultural issue communicating with them. One of the biggest issues we have in the PNW is slow play from “certain cultures”.

Eagles Pride?

It pains me to write this because I love this track. I've been playing it since I was a kid and it has several really unique holes and never gets old. But it just seems like it has fallen on hard times. Things are overgrown. Retaining walls falling down. Cups looked like they hadn't been changed in days. On course bathroom facilities closed for maintenance. Kind of a big deal since the 10th tee is not close to the clubhouse. Long time to go without using the restroom unless you just want everyone going in the woods. Restaurant/bar was a ghost town. Not sure if funding is the issue but with the resurgence of golf in the COVID era I would hope this place can survive and thrive. Really disappointed.

Awful experience. Unprofessional

We had a 10:12 tee time, didn’t tee off until 10:30. Not a big deal, it’s a Saturday. We’re putting on 4 at noon and the ambassador pulls up belittling us on our slow play. I pointed out the group ahead was still on the tee box, how could we be the issue if we’re waiting on the group in front?

He changed his tone and blamed his boss for booking a tournament and needed us off the red course before it started. He told us we had to move to the green but we could play it twice to make up for it. Thanks

We started again at 12:30, finished the first 9 around 3. There was a lot of waiting due to the green course being packed with us non tournament . At the turn we started to walk to the clubhouse for food and was promptly stopped by a groundskeeper who just got off his radio. Because of how busy it was, if we got food we couldn’t play the back 9. “Sorry you probably feel like you’re being punished but we have a course to look after and keep the speed up and also the kitchen is closed for the tournament”.

I won’t be returning, it was one of my favorite in the area.
