Great Track, still wet

Had a great round. I was one of the first off in the early morning solo. Got a full 18 holes in 3 hours. Course was a little wet but in great condition. As soon as I finished #18 it started raining so I timed it well. Will definitely be back to play more. Easy course/short course but good to practice my short game.

Nice Place To Play South Of Down Town Seattle

I have played here many times before and if the timing is right, you can get 18 holes in under three hours. It can also get very crowded and dangerous, in this I refer to golf balls out of control. All of the fairways are next to each other and this course tends to attract new players just learning how to play golf. So Watch Out and don’t expect to get the courteous stray ball call out when one is miss hit your way.

The conditions were less than perfect which is to be expected since the weather has been so wet. The grounds crew does a great job keeping up on the greens, fairways and clearing fallen tree branches. There is work going on next to the 10 hole for the H2O retention pond and the 17th tee box has been relocated temporarily due to this work. I noticed a mower finally cutting the fairways and second cut, so work is starting to commence on a more regular schedule now that the weather is cooperating.

Fosters is an attractive golf course is spring and summer. There are many varieties of trees and plants that flower and all of them are well kept. It is an easy walking course so many people like to take advantage of that, thus making it a nice playable golf course when carts aren’t allowed on the fairways. I would like to see all of the carts taken away and not allowed unless you have a disability. This would speed up play and keep the course in a much better playable condition. The savings on $$ could be put back into the course and passed on to the public, lowering the green fees.

Don’t expect to warm-up at a driving range when you get here. The only practice facility on the grounds is a pitching green and a putting green. After your round don’t miss the 19th hole. Good food, lots of great beers on tap and the service is top notch. When it gets warmer outside the covered patio is a special place to have lunch and enjoy the views of the golf course. Hope this Helps. Have fun and remember, you’re not the only one playing golf so please fix your ball and club marks on the green and in the fairways. Every little bit helps keep our golf course much nicer for the new and retro hackers behind you.

Convenient track for Seniors

Short track convenient to I-5 and straightforward design leads to many birdie chances. Fun and varied par 3's to otherwise easy par 68 Good greens in otherwise wet conditions.

Wet, but a great time with a 5some

After the wet weather Seattle the course was in pretty good condition. Still swampy in areas, but I walked the course without a problem. Stafff was very accommodating allowing our 5some to play together. Most holes are 300 yrds and lower, fairly straight with limited sand. Great course for someone just starting or working on their short game.

Foster

Foster is a great smaller course and easy to play. If you are a beginner, this course is the one you should play after you take your golf lessons. Also, this is a great place to take lessons.

The greens and fairways are always in mint condition. The staff is friendly and accommodating. It's a great course to play after work for a quick nine. During the summer it gets busy but that's because everyone wants to be on the course cause they know it's the place to be.

Walkable course close to Seattle

I play this course a lot with my girlfriends who are high handicappers. It's a walkable flat course with narrow fairways so you'll see people hitting errant balls off your fairways or under trees.

Great course for high handicappers and beginners.

Since it's flat it doesn't drain well so it's soggy in wet periods.

Greens are small but manageable

Fairways are thin since this course gets a lot of play

I go to practice irons and short game

The senior rates are good plus the Fosters card gives you discounts on future rounds

Don't miss eating at Bill Baroos the restaurant serves delicious food and at hole 8 you can phone in an order and pick it up at the turn, and it can be anything off their menu

I usually split their brisket sandwich and homemade potato chips

Very nice course. Good parking. Course very well kept.

Challenging and short - only one short Par5. Tight fairways and small greens but balls are playable if you miss a fairway. Mature course.
