Short track in good shape
This is an executive style course. It was in good condition, especially the greens. I enjoyed it, yet am unlikely to return. I’m visiting the area and, if I gol some more, will be choosing longer tracks.
Thanks for coming out to play our course. We hope you'll give us another try in the future.
just fun day
Almost always enjoy a day at Foster even though front nine was noticeably slower than back. Just seemed too crowded again for a good pace. Too many waits at tees and from fairway waiting to hit approach with this many going out so bunched up
Thanks for coming out for a round, and for your great rating. We appreciate your review, and we hope you'll be back again soon!
Thank you for taking the time to review us Gforce63. Your feedback is valuable, and we look forward to delivering you excellent service again soon. Foster Golf Links thanks you!
it was very slow today, no marshal to keep the game going.
Thank you for taking the time to review the course and rate us, as well as for your feedback.
We appreciate you taking the time to leave us a great rating. We look forward to having you back again soon!
Great Course
Fun course to play on any day. Afternoon pace is kind of slow but this course is a good one to pick up a friend and play at. I come here regularly and the people are always friendly.
Thanks for your review and for your feedback! We're so glad to see you have great interactions with our staff, and we hope to have you back again soon!
crowded and SLOW
Way over booked for a course that attracts high handicappers. ^6 hours for 18

We take customer feedback very seriously at our course. Please reach out to our team in the golf shop and tell us what's on your mind. Thank you for playing Foster Golf Links.
Excellent course, play, and price
Foster outshines every other public course in the Seattle area. Awesome pace of play, firm but forgiving greens, and perfectly manicured fairways. The staff are always friendly and keep the first tee marshaled to avoid hold ups. I play here every Friday plus one other day a week and plan to continue for the season.
Wow, we are so happy reading your review, Nathan! From everything about the pace of play, to our fairways and staff, we could not be more thrilled that you had such a wonderful experience at our course. We love having you here every Friday, and we look forward to the Friday's to come!
Hard to Beat for the Money
This course is a great value for the money (I paid $35 per person with cart). The clubhouse is nice and the course is well maintained. Concessions are reasonable and the cart comes around several times during your round to make sure you have refreshments.
About the course - it's a short course without a lot of variety, but it's really well maintained. I would aliken it to an 18-hole version of Interbay or a nicer version of Jefferson.. Well maintained, fairly easy, and relatively inexpensive.
Definitely better than Jefferson/Jackson or just about any other muni course around Seattle.
Wow, thank you so much for this wonderful review! We're so glad to read that you like our clubhouse and course. What a great compliment to receive, and we hope to see you back again very soon!
Out it’s Independence Day
The course was nice today. Wasn’t wet and the pace others were playing was good. I think it’s a great course for beginners like me..
Thanks so much for the great review! We're glad you enjoyed your round with us!
Thanks so much for taking the time to rate us 5 stars!
Packed tee times & slow pace of play.
I like the course layout. Simple straight fairways, short 18 with mostly 300 yard par 4s. This links style course should be an easy course to move people. HOWEVER, the way they are packing in tee times with groups of foursomes and more back to back within mins is extremely worrisome for social distancing and pace of play. I had to leave at hole 7 as a twosome with the 3 groups of about 11 people stuck at the next tee as we're we pushing 30 mins a hole. Almost 2 1/2 hrs before even reaching the 9. I informed management that it was not the first time as this happened on a Wednesday noon, sat 3pm, and fri. They have a serious problem with packing tees causing so much buildup. I really wanted to love this course. We tried 3 times. Think we're done, first time having to leave mid round to beat traffic back south.
Hello mikeylim. Thanks for the review. We see you rated the course 1-star and are interested in talking to you more about this. Please reach out to our team in the golf shop. We always appreciate the feedback. Thank you for playing Foster Golf Links.
Fan of Foster but....
Mind you I really love the little course and typically I always enjoy the day there however my past experience is has been partly due to value one gets for a well run small course usually with good pace and well kept greens. Yesterday was not the case unfortunately, A marshall on course might have kept the pace up a bit with a lot of newbies playing, but the cost of Foster should not be anywhere near a $58 round. Not worth it at all. This is at best a place one should be able to play for $40 tops .... all courses are charging more, but slow pace, high price, short course, becoming close to not a good deal anymore if it stays this way
We appreciate your feedback, and for coming out to play our course. We are going to pass along your feedback to our team so we can work to make some changes to ensure your round is always an exceptional experience. We thank you for coming out to the course, and hope to you back again soon.
Had a beer on the patio, our server was great. Noticed another server not wearing a mask. Thought it was mandatory
Thanks for coming out, and we're glad you had a great time!
Thanks so much for taking the time to rate us 4 stars!
Short Course but Great Deal
Course was in really nice shape. Greens were fast and rolled well. Well maintained. The only drawback may be the length for some. I liked it short.
Thanks for the great review. We work hard to maintain our course, and we hope to have you back again soon!
We're so glad you enjoyed your round. Please book another round with us soon, and thanks for choosing Foster Golf Links!
Fun Afternoon on the Course
I played Foster with a foursome on Friday evening, and we had a great time. The course is in excellent condition, and the staff is very friendly and accommodating. The greens were in better condition than I've ever seen them at Foster. The only reason my review isn't 5-star is because of the pace of play; the tee times are stacked tightly and there was a bit of a log jam ahead of us. That said, we totally understand that the course may need to stack tee times tighter in order to make up for lost income from earlier in the season. I will definitely be back at Foster before the summer is up - thanks for a good time!
We appreciate you coming out to the course and leaving us a review. Thank you for your feedback about the pace of play, and we will work to make improvements for the future. We look forward to having you back again soon for another great round!
Thanks for taking the time to rate us!
