Fun beginner course

Nile has always been a go to course for a relaxing round or bringing newer golfers. The greens are normally in fairly good shape and some short driveable par 4s.

Great value and a fun tight little course.

I've been going to Nile Shrine for many years now, and it is such a great value! It's a tight and mostly narrow course with no par 5s and some tricky par 4s. You could play nothing larger than a 4-iron off the tee or be bold and go driver/wedge on most of the back 9. The course pro, Joe Korn, is a really great guy and has always taken care of me well. The one event I organized there went very smoothly, and we felt well accommodated. The only thing I wish they could work on is their warm-up nets and have a more present marshall for the fairweather weekends.

One of the best maintained golf course in the Seattle area

Well maintained from tee box to green. Greens keepers could be seen maintaining this course even in the winter months.. Nile is not a beginner’s course even though it is only par 67

I miss the old Nile

This used to be one of my favorite courses to play in the area because it played pretty fast and the price was good. Just played here at 12:30pm on a Saturday in mid-March and the conditions were pretty poor overall, bad drainage, lots of puddles, and the greens were very bumpy. Also pace of play was super slow, and the price has gone up too much to make it worth it. I know inflation is real, but paying almost $50 for a round in mid-March on a short course in these conditions just makes this course not worth it anymore.

Also, please cut down the huge branch on 13 on the super downhill par 3 that is perfectly blocking a straight shot if the tee box is on the right. Pic attached

Great course to get back to golf after winter!

Overall the golf course was short in length with no Par 5's but some challenging dog hook holes and plenty of trees. The course was in decent condition, considering it was wet and the greens could be tough with elevation and lots of undulations. After not playing for a while due to colder conditions, this was a great course to get started back up again. Also nice for the mid-range and short game.

A great short course

Nile Shrine is a great short course, one where you really never need to whip out the driver but if you choose to bring it out and hit it well, you'll be set up on quite a few holes with a very approachable shot into the green. The greens roll true and are largely forgiving.

Good neighborhood course

Short, narrow course, very hilly. The fairways have lots of bare spots, perhaps due to winter season.

Nice short course with challenges

Usually get stuck behind or with "hacks" which really slows the pace of play. A short course like this you would expect to complete in 3+ hours, but it's always 4+ hours! So plan accordingly and enjoy!
