Chilly winter day
Great day to play. Low 40s but dry. Very few players so pace was excellent. I like the course.
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.
Thanks so much for the review! We strive to create a wonderful experience, and we're so glad you had one. We hope to see you back here soon!
Well kept nice course
This course is the perfect for seniors . Fairways and greens in good conditions for the rainy season Seattle. Excellent value thru Golfpass . Definitely will be back again
Hello and thank you for your 5-star rating, Helenlee1945! We're delighted you enjoyed your round. Please book another round with us soon, and thanks for choosing Foster Golf Links!
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!
Hi, biwaracing. We are so pleased that you enjoyed your time at Foster Golf Links. We look forward to seeing you at the course soon for another 5-star experience!
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.

Fun course
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.

Always a fun round at Foster
It's very short and some of the holes are pretty easy but it is usually in great shape and it certainly was today.

Nice course
Very nice course shorter yardage but in great shape and has a couple challenging little holes. I grew up playing on this course and enjoyed every time I play. Shot some of my best scores here and had a good round today

Another beautiful day at Foster Links Golf Course
I absolutely love this course! Greens are always immaculate, there are a few tricky holes that will leave you wishing you pipes it down the fairway. Only thing I could say is that the starting hole can be like a traffic jam, from people that have reservations versus walk one. But overall it's pretty darn good. Enjoy!
anwar2558109, thank you for your kind words! We hope to see you again at the course very soon for another 5-star experience. Thanks for choosing Foster Golf Links.
as always, a nice round
I play Fosters most all the time Im in town. While the pace of play is generally slow, 4+ hours for a short course, its pretty. It is a short course so be prepared to work on your short game. I have met tons of great people while playing there and folks generally are always friendly. Don't be afraid of joining in with a group of strangers because most folks are pretty relaxed.

The round was slow no marshal to keep the flow, ended up passing 2 groups ,
Hello, 2552387. Thank you for reviewing the course. We apologize for the delay of play during your round. This is by no means the standard we strive to achieve. With an uncharacteristically full day, we work hard to accommodate everyone who visits our course and allow our guest the chance to complete their rounds. With that in mind, we are working to best control pace and allow everyone to finish in a reasonable amount of time. We will continue to look for ways to improve. W
Been a while
I haven't played Fosters in years. It is short but still has its bite. The trees are huge now making you hit good drives or else. But the course was nice, fairways were great , greens were really true and receptive.I would recommend this course to all but especially new golfers. Its a step up in length from the par 3 courses and the place is friendly.
stein7470, thank you for your kind words! We hope to see you again at the course very soon for another 5-star experience. Thanks for choosing Foster Golf Links.
This course is fun, even in the rain!
We started playing in a light mist. Then the rain became heavy. After nine holes, we took a break for a delicious lunch. After lunch, the rain stopped, the course had emptied and we enjoyed the back nine all to ourselves. What could be better?
