Eagles Pride Golf Course - Red/Blue
About
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 time
Course was in good shape. Play was fluent all the way. Really did a good job on play. No food was lame but there building a brew house so i can live with that. I paid $50 for 2 of us walking on a Saturday at 9 am. That's a pretty great deal.
Fun 3 hour Sprint
So first 9 was on the red course after some confusion between the course staff and golfers...got stuck behind a foursome for the first 5 holes till they saved us through. Got the front done in about two hours...pro shop guy said you have till 8...we got it done.
Great Golf Challenge
Friendly and accommodating staff. Wonderful course.
In Great Shape
I'd not played here in a few years. They've been doing work. The 12th green has been rebuilt. The 14th is now a par 3 15th now a par 4 - a great improvement that is still growing in. But the greens rolled as true as I've ever seen them roll. Tremendous value. Course plays tougher than its 118 rating - the trees create narrow shoots in many places.
Great value
With Hot Deal, it was lower than the usual military rate that I pay. Although I live in Seattle and have to drive the distance it is still worth playing there.
Tough course
Nice fast greens. Unfortunately, the blue 9 won't be open until July. I realize there should be a penalty for missing a fairway, but on green course #6, the rough was almost up to my knees. That will really slow down play while players search for their errant shot.
Great course
We played on Sunday morning. The front nine was a bit crowded but pace of play was good. We only waited on 2 holes. The back nine was wide open as a number of golfers in front of us only played 9 holes.
Course is long and narrow, with beautiful old growth trees making it a challenging course. Restaurant is being re-modeled but will not re-open until fall we were told making food and drink selections very minimal in the pro shop.
We can trim the elephant grass
elephant grass it's by far the worse I have seen on a golf course we accidentally hit it in there to drop the ball because you'll never find 18 inch high elephant kind of disappoints the play
Great Course
Course was, and is always great. Very well kept. The staff, on the other hand, is not. Every time we visit this course the staff at the desk is usually rude. Very short, never a smile, and all around unfriendly. The course marshal that drives around is always in a good mood.
Be sure to keep your receipt from checking in as you'll need it to tee off.
They're in the process of building a Samuel Adams Brew House which will be great.
If it weren't for the attitude of the staff I would rate this course 5-stars.
Great layout, fun and challenging
A great experience in a beautiful setting. Fairways, tee boxes and greens in great shape. Snack bar still closed for drinks and eats so not able to hang out afterwards.
Pace of play
I really enjoy this course, however if the Marshal isn't going to enforce keeping pace then what is the point? Three hours for nine holes is outrageous!
The driest course I've played this year
The course was in very nice shape. Drier than any other Seattle area course I've played this year. Greens were firm and fast.
