Nice round of winter golf

Played a round at Lake Spanaway with three friends. Rain on Sunday and Monday didn't allow us to drive golf carts on the course, but overall enjoyed the opportunity to play on a nice layout. Some standing water on the cart paths, bunkers were raked (saw a large pile of sand in the parking lot) but need some TLC. Greens were great!

Bunkers are being repaired. Greens are getting better. Rocks in rough and bunkers are a problem. Cart paths always a problem Hope it continues to improve.

Foggy

If not for the damp weather due to the heavy fog it would have been a great time.

Good price to play this course and pace of play was great. Fairways were not in great shape and greens were covered with pine needles. Overall it’s an okay course but not what I expected for my first time playing.

Soggy in July

I’ve played this course quite a bit. Always have had a good time.

That being said, someone fell asleep at the water hose as there were large water puddles on the cart paths and numerous soggy areas on the course in general. If you were to encounter one of these areas you’re going to lose whatever roll you thought you were going to get.
