Off the tee is challenging on most holes
Ur 3 wood works well on this course, if ur driver is a bit weak,
Well maintain, green a little spoogy.
Nice beginner/ intermediate course.
Executive style course (only one short par 5.) Although it has tree lined, relatively narrow fairways, errant balls remain playable on adjacent fairways. Well maintained. Greens are a bit slow, and a few were a bit bumpy. Busy day due to a tournament, but play moved at a reasonable pace.
Great golf Sunday!
This course has a great restaurant with great service. Good for beginners and intermediate golfers. Nicely maintained.
Plesant track that anyone can walk!
I like this course because it is walkable, kept well, located well for South King County residents, available online (golfnow..com). It can be slow on weekends but my Saturday 9am round took 4-1/2 hours.
its ok
I think its a little overpriced for the course. I would only go here if i got golfnow prices with the cart. just nothing special to pay that much to play here.
Not the right time of year
This course was pretty muddy and swampy all the way through. I understand that the time of year isnt ideal for golf in this area, but there are many other courses who keep their drainage up to par. Unfortunately, i lost about 4 balls in the mud directly in the middle of the fairway. If the weather has been dry for some time i think this courder has some great potential.
Great value
considering how much rain we had the day before, the course was in great shape. It would be nice if they had an outdoor window where you can go to order a snack or drink at the turn, rather than go inside to the big bar and wait to be served.
great for the high handicapper
Fairways are soft but this course is a great value when combined with Golf Now discounts. And, after a round of golf, you can't beat the food and service at Billy Baroos.
Slightly disappointed
This was my 4th round here, but first in the off-season. I was mostly disappointed with the conditions, but have conversely been pleased with the course in the summer. This day the course was soggy and the greens were slow and spongy. It was also slow going at times.
Simple and Easy
Not so great in the wet, but i had a lot of fun at this course. Short and very simple!
Great short practice course
I have been playing this course for many years. It's a great course to score great on due to it's length. Many driveable par 4s. Only 2 par 5s total one on the front one on the back. It's rather scenic for a small city owned muni. The green river wraps around the entire course. Greens are rather small but run true and are always maintained. Two par 3s to carry over the river and
1 par 3 over a 175 yard carry pond. One of the best reasturaunts that rival any higher end golf course. One of the best happy hours in the state.
Excellent course - fun experience
Course well kept & friendly staff.
Flat course for easy walk is a bonus...
This course is great for anyone that wants to go out for the day!
I have played this course several times this last year and I haven't had a problem once! The employees are friendly. I like the recent addition of the warm up net to drive into. All around, its not the most difficult course, but it sure is fun! Will definitely play here as much as I can
Beautiful course, poor drainage.
Golf Now offered and excellent deal and we purchased it despite weather (60 degrees, moderate rain). The course is very pretty and well layed out. The green river can be seen from almost every hole and the fall colors set for a perfect background. For the price, time, and weather it was nearly perfect! The clubhouse is large and well staffed and Billy Baroo's (restaurant) had excellent food and a great beer list. The only problem we had with the course was the conditions. Very large puddles, almost every sandtrap was like a pool, and the whole course was very saturated. Those conditions were the only reason the course wasn't given a 5/5 was that. Excited to play this course next summer!
Very nice course for inexperienced golfers. Play is very slow.
The members of the staff are very friendly, but a bit disorganized when trying to match up individual walk-ons. There is no starter on the first tee. Since there is no marshal on the course, play can get very slow. If you have a lot of time and don't care about the slow pace of play, it's a nice course. It is easy and fun to play. The facilities are very nice and the bar and restaurant have good food and drink.
Good Job with all the improvements- it shows!
I was very pleased this year with the course conditions. They made some real improvements with the greens. No backups just a real good experience all season!
