Meh

The conditioning was pretty good, a little soft for how dry the weather had been but that can be forgiven in a flood plain. What got to me was the routing, the front is a snooze, it's very out and back with 7 very straight par 4s. The most exciting hole on the front is the 5th, a par 3 with two whole bunkers. The back is a little better and saves the course, we finally get our first par 5 and the river comes in to play making the shots a little less tedious. All and all, I'd probably only go back if I wanted to spend a 5 hour round drinking.

Fun

This isn’t the best review as the day we played there it had been raining in Seattle for a week. It was raining the day we played. The course itself looks pretty fun, but there was a ton of standing water all over the course from the rain. I would love to come back in the summer and play the course when it is on its best shape. Staff was great and the bar/restaurant at the club house was good.

Great training ground...

Easily one of the best short course to fine-tune your short game before a tournament or so. Even kick off your golf season next year on this course like a warm up. Right now, muddy/very wet but playable. Mark, clean ball, place is mandatory for each pre-shot. Great value for the run. Good bar. Great staff. Great location. Cheers.

Short course great for seniors easy to walk but still challenging

Foster is a fun course to play, and a great spot to take golfers who do not hit the ball long and you like an easy walk. Or if you want to play 18 well under 4 hours. It’s fun course, while there are a few difficult holes, it is by no way a difficult course. Three of the Ppar 3's are over water. Hole #6 is a long Par4 425 yds The rest of the Par4's are short, 300 yds or less, but you have to hit down the middle on the narrow tree lined fairways. Both holes 14 and 15 are short Par 4's , 250 yds or less but you need shape the ball around two huge trees to hit the greens from the tee. The clubhouse and staff are great. Billy Baroo’s, the course restaurant, has excellent food, 20 beers on tap and a large outdoor patio next to the course.

Fun and fast

Have now played Foster a few times this fall. Overall well maintained and laid out. I am not a long hitter, so I appreciate that it is a shorter course. The shorter par 4s and the par 3 are laid out to be kind of tricky so there are definitely challenges there, especially for a new golfer like me. Pace of play has been good, with 18 holes taking about 3 hours, Tee time bargains are also to be had, making it even better!

Fall at Foster

Everything about our experience was great. The one and only complaint I had was the amount of leaves on the course. I lost a ball on the edge of a fairway because it rolled into a leaf pile. Other than the leaves the course exceeded my expectations. I was expecting a mud pit but the course was firm and in great condition. The staff saved us about $25 too.

Beautiful sunny fall day

Had a great fall day playing golf. Unfortunately the 4-some ahead of us thought it was the day to "practice" play. 2 or 3 hits per stroke. But, the weather was great, course was in great shape. Best day playing there, I made it over both water traps.

Course was in great shape with very few soggy areas. Though short, it is challenge and rewards smart shots. Had the added bonus of a great grouping of guys. I'll be bringing some buddies here in the future.
