Going low at Foster
This course is short, fairly tight at times, with a couple of holes that have water bordering. Keep it in the fairway and you can go low.
I used driver "just cuz'" and drove 3 greens. Nice when youre putting for eagle 3 times in a round. Not much challenge really, but it makes for a relaxing and enjoyable round of golf whether you are just starting out, or an old man like me trying to regain some of my lost youth.
Oh, and by the way, the greens were in magnificent condition.

Stop over game
I was in Seattle, on Business and went looking for a game of golf.
The hotel recommended the course and was pleasantly surprised. The staff were great weather was good and the group I joined as a single player were fantastic people so great day.
The course is quite short but in good condition, it was not challenging but was just good fun.
Thank you for the 4 stars! We hope to have you back soon.

Good early
course was in very good condition for this early in the season. Some of the greens may have even been a little dry by mid afternoon. Good pace of play and got around in 3.5 hours.

What a difference dry weather makes
Course was in great condition compared with when I played it back in January February definitely makes a huge difference that's been dryer greens were nice and pace of play was decent
Hi adambzelt! Thank you so much for leaving us with your feedback. We value our customer experience, so your review is important to us. We will make note and we hope to see you back!
Great warm up course
Grwat short course to work out kinks in your game. Course wS in great condition and pace of play was normal for a sunny Sunday in Seattle.
pveldhuis, thank you for your kinds words! We hope to see you again at the course very soon for another 5 star experience.
Foster is my home course so I play it most. This course has a good layout and is well conditioned. It has no driving range, witch for me and most of the people I play with means 1 and 2 are pretty much the warm up. Other than that, this is a great course, very flat and some par 5's to let out the driver.
Great weather
Course was in good shape, paired with two friendly golfers. Had a great time
Thank you for taking the time to review us TommyT89. Your feedback is valuable, and we look forward to delivering you excellent service again soon. Foster Golf Links thanks you!
First sunny day in April
Sunny day in April means golfing. Found a great deal on Golfnow. Headed to the course. Played with a really nice couple. Greens were great, fairways still a little soft. Some players couldn't find their own fairway and didn't know
to call fore!
Thank you for leaving us a great five-star review! We're thrilled that you enjoyed some beautiful weather and nice conditions. We hope to see you again soon.
Thank you for leaving us four stars!
Different but fun
A short but fun course with some interesting challenges. While the first three holes lull you into thinking you will shoot in the 60’s, the long par 4 five hole will set you straight. The back 9 is more interesting and fun, starting with a makeable par 5, a par 3 over the river, and #12 requires you to stay left or long and down the middle or a slide fade/slice will put you in the gulley or river to the right. Then you have 3 short par4’s in a row where you can experiment with an alternate club to avoid trees or bunkers. These are fun holes. The 17th hole is a long par 3, which may have you reaching for your driver, and watch out on the 18th, you don’t want to be on the left side. Good course for beginners or people wanting to work on different aspects of their game. Oh, and the greens are mostly flat and well groomed. I had 6 1-putts my last two times out here and I’m a pretty average putter. Enjoy!
It sounds like you had a fun and challenging round with us and we couldn't be more pleased. We hope to see you again soon.
Second Time A
Played last year for the first time as course was very wet due to winter rains. What a difference when it's relatively dry. Short course that is excellent to try different clubs and shots where you don't need driver. Greens were in great shape. Though the course was packed, still finished in 4 hrs. Recommend this course to beginners and others that need to fine tune their irons. Great value for the money.
Thank you for the very kind words and four stars! We're thrilled that you enjoyed your round and enjoyed our layout and conditions. Please come and see us again soon.
Don’t go if you aren’t part of a group
Unprofessional clubhouse employees. I had to tee off #10 because they let a group of eight go off of #1 before me. So I make the turn and there are 4 groups in front of me. I asked if I could just get a rain check for nine holes. No and “ I don’t have time to deal with this” was the answer. They said I paid the early bird for 26.00 so I play at my own risk in terms of pace of play. The regular green fee is 28.00!
So because of the employees error and bad judgment I get punished over 2.00! What a joke. I drive 30-45 mins most times to play your course. I take it early bird is before 9:00am, my tee time was 8:50. So 10 mins difference and 2 dollars more your telling me I wouldn’t have to wait for 30 mins to tee off on my 10th hole? I understand not every round will be smooth and quick but you can’t punish me because I’m a single golfer , And might I add, a single golfer that will never play at fosters again.
Great until back 9
This was a great deal to get out and play a round at a great value, until... they slipped an extra foursome in front of us at 10, then it slowed and we ended up waiting on nearly every hole the rest of the day and almost always had the group behind us waiting on us at the tee box. Never much fun, hurrying shots.
We're sorry to hear about the slower play, but we're glad that you otherwise enjoyed your round with us.
