Allenmore Golf Course
About
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.

Terrific Greens
The course was in great shape and the greens were in great shape and putted very pure and true!!! I will come back for sure!
Great value
Great course with friendly atmosphere. Parking is insufficient. Course in great shape. Greens are quick.
Good local course
Good course to play. Very friendly staff. Course can be extremely wet during certain times of the year. Balls will plug off of drives and can be hard to find. It's better to walk the course instead of getting a cart when conditions are like this. Overall, it's one of my favorite local courses.
Aka more
Nice and EZ course to play. Lots of trees and Bertie fairways
Nice Improvements
New carts, cart paths redone, beautiful course and very friendly staff. The new product shop is beautiful. The course does have exposure to wind. Lots of trees and well manicured course. There were a lot of older golfers on the course taking their time, but for the price, I have no complaints. I will be golfing here more often. Challenging, but not too tough. Good course for a high handicap golfer.
ALLENMORE Golf Course
Very slow pace of play, no starter, two walk-ons givien tee time ahead of ours despite backup. left two seat throw rugs on power carts, went back ten minutes later to find on on a marshalls cart and a cart attendent who acted like he did know anything about it. will NOT go back.
Restaurant far too expensive.
allenmore 2/15/15
Course was wet & muddy. Maybe that is why the fairways looked like roughs. Pace of play was extremely slow.
Great Day on the Course!
We had a great time golfing. Golf Now made the experience very easy. The system paired us up
and it was seamless from booking, to the pro shop, to the first tee box. I'd use the service again. Rates are great!
Best deals !
Love the layout .. But very bad drainage .. Super muddy and soft in the winter . Bring your mud boots.. Summer here is great though !!!
Keep it on the fairway
Whomever runs this course is spending more time and money on the looks of the clubhouse, and leaving the course alone. I was lucky to find balls that just missed fairways and greens due to the soft ground that ate them up. I don't complain about wet conditions in Western Washington, but i see nothing being done to alleviate the muddy conditions around greens and between fairways.
Good Winter Course
Course in surprisingly good condition for the middle of January. Great clubhouse. Nice upgrade on the 10th tee box and fairways in good condition; ditto greens; again for the middle of January following some heavy rains and storms.. Course seems to get a lot of play and can get a little slow on back nine for some unknown reason. But, overall, a nice track for the winter season.
Excellent greens, fairways a bit sloppy
Typical for January, the fairways were soggy in places and therefore the coarse played longer than spring or summer. Cart path only is inconvenient, but necessary this time of year. The greens were amazingly good. The guy in the clubhouse was "golden"!
Beautiful views Beautiful greens
The greens where amazing...the only issue was the course in many spots was mushy due to the recent rain ....pour drainage....I lost 3 balls that plugged never to be found...I still highly recommend this course and will definitely play it again
Fun Course
Impressed with the course. Great time golfing. Lunch was great. Friendly staff
Happy!
For just having rain in the morning before, this course was in great shape. Did not have any plugged balls in the ground which means course has great drainage. This is good to know in this type of climate. Very happy.
Great Course , Excellent greens and well maintained
This little gem is a quick drive from anywhere in Tacoma and has always been a great course but in the last year it has been improved even more...
Allenmore GC
A good test. No flat lies to speak of anywhere except dead center on some fairways. Good pace of play with an attentative Marshall on patrol. When available I play from "Senior" tees, between white and red. Here I played from the back of the reds while my wife played from the front. While it's not real long the course is always interesting with uphill, down hill, side hill lies and shots through the trees plus tricky greens. We'll be back.
First time at Allenmore
Excellent day, I was impressed by the condition of the course, especially for how much play it must get....the greens had been punched about 4 weeks prior to my round and they were rolling true and fast. This is not a long course, but you'll use every club in your bag. The par 3s are excellent. I'll be back now that I know where to, or not to hit my ball on certain holes.
good golf, morning busy
Overall I liked the course and amenities. As a new golfer, I think that this course could use a better posting of " house rules". My self and a friend were paired with two others for a walking foursome and there were several sets in front of us. Unfortunately the group behind us was in carts and hit into us three times without a customary hazard call. We couldn't play faster without risking the same, but I think our "friends to the rear" could have asked to play through or asked a Marshall to let them hold off. Luckily we got to eighteen before it became an issue again and I could leave. I noticed the course was much less cramped between groups at noon. IF I return it will only be afternoon to avoid those golfers that lack respect.
