Allenmore Golf Course is located in the heart of Tacoma but thanks to the beautiful setting with Mt. Rainier serving as a backdrop, it feels like it's actually miles from the city. The layout is just over 6,000 yards from the back tees and though it's not particularly long, it offers plenty of variety. It's a course where you'll have to use every club in your bag. Trouble lurks at almost every turn in the form of doglegs, trees, or out-of-bounds. Water hazards also come into play. With uphill, sidehill, and downhill lies, the course is never boring and while there are some challenging holes, there are also birdie opportunities if you play strategically. In addition to the golf course, Allenmore also has a short-iron driving range and a practice facility with chipping and putting greens.

Course Renovations

Lots of the holes were under construction. Couldn’t play Hole 18 and they put a temporary hole between 9 and 10. Had a golf special but if I had to pay full price, I would be really upset. Nowhere on the website does it say their course is under construction.

Course Work

Would have been nice to know that the course was under repair. Two par fours turned into par three’s and wasn’t told that course was under repair. Holes and pipes laying all around the course. Didn’t finish because of pace of play. Wait tell course gets repaired.

Under repair

Normally I would rate this course highly, however with all the work being done on irrigation and drainage I would wait about 6 months before playing this course again

fun day

Enjoyed the day. Always seem to golf with people that are fun to golf with. The coarse is being improved so a few problems. Would be fewer if I kept in fairways. Coarse layout makes it enjoyable to play.

Hi johnh1530, thank you for taking the time to leave feedback about your recent round. We are currently replacing our entire golf course irrigation system which necessitates turning off our irrigation pumps for multiple days during active construction and then overwatering when we are able to turn the irrigation back on.

Our teams are working diligently to keep the course in shape as we work through this maintenance period. We anticipate the project will be done this winter and the course will be in excellent shape for next spring! Please feel free to reach out with any additional concerns and we hope to see you on the course again soon.

Omitting transparency to make money

Staff at checkin said temp greens for aeration on select holes....however the back 9 is under construction, vehicles driving everywhere, and certain holes closed completely. Play the front nine only...and don't pay over $20.

Hi Munizza,

We are currently replacing our entire golf course irrigation system. We have been getting a handful of negative course condition reviews lately. Unfortunately, we must turn off our irrigation pumps for multiple days during construction and then overwater the course when we turn them back on. Also, we have multiple mainlines that our broken and sprinkler heads that don’t work. The superintendent has done a great job during this challenging time and the course really isn’t playing that bad.

Thanks for choosing our course.
