I always search for the best deal, but I keep coming back to Nile Shrine. It's a well maintained course with an interesting layout.

Course conditions are deteriorating - 2023

The Nile Leadership is allowing the course to deteriorate with each passing season. The cart paths are worn and in serious disrepair - everywhere. The brush is overgrown on certain holes (17). Several holes are mud holes year round (3, 5, 6, 13, 14, 16 and 17). The condition of some fairways is like playing on cement mainly on the back 9.

Great Value, Friendly

The day turned out to be a perfect weather day. Fairways were in great shape, almost all greens and the sand was actually sand and not mud, like most

Seattle courses. Pro shop was very nice . We had lunch and the food was a great deal and Kitchen manager was awesome. Sorry, I did not get her name but she delivered food and answered questions about the "secret" spice used for the crispy fries. I'll be back just for the food, burger was perfect, made to order and quick!!!

very good for this time of year

Been a while since we played the nile. Very surprised at how green and actually over wet in a few spots due to watering. Greens must not have been sanded too long ago, but they were in great shape for this time of year.

Great Value for Really Well Maintained Course

This is a great course for a quick 18. Course is shorter - no Par 5's -- but has challenging holes including several with elevated greens. Fairways and Greens are in really good shape in spite of the dry summer we've had. Excellent value for a fun round of golf.

Golf great. Beer price not so great

Only issue was with the 19th hole bar. I was surprised to pay $18.00 for two cans of coors light beer. That is WAY TOO MUCH MONEY, and drastically higher than wha tyou used to pay at the Nile with the former caterer. It doesn't make any sense that I canI pay less for beer at a fine restaurant in downtown Seattle than at a public golf course????? Something is wrong with that. Maybe they overcharged me; not sure. The staff was helpful and courteous, and I think Navi has done a nice job with the catering rooms but the beer prices are too high in the 19th hole bar and grill.
