Located less than an hour from Seattle in Lakewood, Oakbrook Golf Club is one of the area's hidden gems. Opened in 1966 as a private club, the course opened its doors to the public in 2012. The course is known for its smooth, firm, and fast greens. The 6,700-yard layout plays both narrow and long but it is player friendly enough to appeal to a wide range of skill levels. With hundreds of mature oak trees scattered throughout the course, accuracy is key. It's a course that rewards strategy rather than raw skill. One of Oakbrook Golf Club's toughest holes is the par-4 seventh, which you'll have to play from below since it's sloped steeply from top to bottom. The downhill shots and doglegs will put golfers of any skill level to the test.

Not a bad course. For the money there are better out there. My only real negative was the overcharging of products in clubhouse. Especially water since there was no drinking water on the course I had to buy a bottle of water for 5$. That brought the price of the round up to the cost I could have paid rack rate at a better course

Punching Greens

Would’ve been nice to know from the staff in the pro shop before we teed off that the greens on the front 9 were being punched while we started on the back 9. We were surprised to find that out when I turned to number 1 from 18. Had the staff said something, we probably wouldn’t have paid $50 and some change to play. This is why we usually stick to playing private courses. A little professionalism goes a long way.

Unknown Gem

My and my buddies were looking for a new course to check out in South Sound area. We stumbled upon Oak Brook. Super pleased we did. Well manicured course, challenging layouts, and very solid greens.

Staff was super friendly and pace of play was great. 3 of us played 18, in 3 hr 50 mins.

Would recommend and will definitely be playing it again.

Staff were not in pro shop, waited at least 5mins before another patron ahead of me went out to find an attendant. Otherwise the course was great.

Great staff great course made for a great day of golf

The fairways were in great shape and the greens were immaculate. The pro shop and restaurant staff were friendly and engaging. My first time playing the course took just over 4 hrs even with occasional waiting on the foursome in front of us.
Lunch at the clubhouse was equally good. I highly recommend it.

Oakbrook GC is in great condition

My two golf buddies had never played Oakbrook, so I arranged a day & time we all could play. The course is always in great condition, and is a very challenging course to play.

They loved it and we all agreed to put it in our rotation.
