Good value for the money

My only beef is the condition of the course which isn't their fault. Just so much rain lately that the course is a quagmire. The layout is really good, and I would love to go back and play it in better condition. The greens were really slow but again that's because of current weather. There are plenty of beautiful scenic views and if you want a fair challenge there are multiple tee boxes to choose from that will suit your desires. If you just want to have fun the forward and standard tees are perfect. I'll definitely go back again.

Great winter play

This is my first time playing this course in the winter the course was in pretty good condition for how much rain we've had. I was able to get 18 holes in in about three hours . Greens were in pretty rough shape but all the water features were full of water making the course very unique

Great full length course, little soggy in the winter but in the summer, great view of Mt Rainier on just about every hole. Challenging course, well laid out.

Date Day

My wife and I played this course again, in 4 hours. The afternoon Hot Time was excellent compared to the normal rate. After all the drought the course is coming around nicely, grass filling in and ponds filling up. Remember, this is one of the toughest rated courses in the state and smart golf is a must. The greens were in fantastic shape, they held, rolled true, and were a great speed for day to day golf.

Expected better.

Given its reputation and greens fees that are 40% higher than my home course, I was really looking forward to finally playing this course. My first disappointment was seeing the practice range was off of mats. The range balls were the saddest collection I've seen anywhere. They weren't just bald and worn--some had big chunks chewed out of them. Of course, I didn't go for the range experience, but it was an indicator of what was ahead. The fairways were horrible. I understand the issues with the weather this year and the need to conserve water, but this course as compared to others is doing a terrible job of managing with the challenges. I swear to god, as I drove out, mid--afternoon--there was irrigation running on a section of grass next to the road, nowhere near the course itself! The greens were in sub-par condition, too, with the worst being the par three on the back nine fronted by a dried up water hazard. It literally reeked! We couldn't get out of there fast enough.

Never again

I'm from Scottsdale Arizona I play 3-4 days a week and a 6 handicap and book 1-2 tee times a week on golf now. My brother in law was super excited to take me here because a friend of his is a club member at this place. We get there the weather wasn't the greatest and talked to the pro shop girl. She said she had been keeping and eye on the weather and we had a good 4 hr window, so we gave it a shot. Well when I went to pay it was $42 more dollars than what golf now had posted. They hit u up for $14 per person for a cart and don't tell till you get there. So I paid it. The pace was super slow took 2 1/2 hrs to play 9 with a twosome. We get to 10th hole finally it's backed up and then began to rain. So we called it quits went in to get a rain check. The girl stated we don't give rain checks ! I asked to speak to a manager! She also stated there isn't one on duty. She showed me a sign that was behind her that you would never see saying no rain checks. I had asked her if maybe it would be a good suggestion to tell people this policy before they spent $120 to golf not to mention the other $60 in the bar. Worst first time experience. We will be seeing the club member today for lunch I will be sharing the same story with him. Maybe he can help with making it a better experience for the next first time player there.

Rainchecks??? Never heard of such a thing, except maybe at Safeway. Welcome to the Pacific Northwest. Seriously, you stop play if it starts to rain? I find that fascinating.

Course is in rough shape

I play Druids Glen at least 10-12 times a year. It is typically in great shape. I understand that the weather has had an impact on all the area courses, but the "premium" courses see me to have a handle on it, Druids does not. The greens were bumpy and inconsistent, off the fairway was either dead, or just dry dirt, and certain parts of the fairway were in the same condition. If you are going to market yourself as a "premium" course, you should be able to keep it in better shape. My suggestion would be to stay away until fall or spring, or play twilight rates. This course simply is not worth the money during prime tee-times.

Fun time

It was my first time on the course and I had a lot of fun. Great par 3s, the par 5s are reachable in 2 and it definitely challanged you. It was obviously pretty dry off the fairways and greens but i thought the greens were some of the softest ive seen latly. Cant wait to get back out after some rain!

Lovely day at Druids

Despite the dry weather the greens were in good shape. The edges of the fairway suffered damage, though. But the central portion was green and firm. Overall it was a nice round.

Great design, poor maintenance

I could definitely see the potential in this course. It's an interesting and challenging, yet fair layout. However, the conditions are sad. Many burnt out areas in the fairway and bumpy greens. Hoping that this is only due to the hot weather they have been having and that Spring will bring better conditions. A great deal via Golfnow.

Mt. Ranier views

This course would have been spectacular if not for the drought that has damaged a considerable percentage of the tract. Every hole was unique and pace of play was faster than expected. Bring lots of balls.

Slow play

From starting hole 10, up to second half hole 6,
every hole delayed 3 to 6 mins.
I found 5ball playing ahead 1teeam.
We started 1517 and quit playing from hole 7 at the time 1955.
2player behind us also gave up playing from hole 7
where we are waiting at tee up.
I wonder is it proper 5ball playing in this good course.

Conditions a Surprise

I've played and enjoyed this course for many years. Some of the best par 3's anywhere... However, the course is suffering. Fairways in very poor conditions and (perhaps in an effort to save them) saturated... Not good for play or the course.

Drought conditions

I'm glad of the water hazards were mostly dry. We haven't had rain in awhile. Fairways were in fair condition, greens were nice. At least they are using their water were its needed. Staff was great!

Good track

We played on a week day at mid day. Pace was a little slow but finished within 4 1/2 hours. The course was unusually dry this time as the Seattle area has been exceptionally dry. The greens were firm but held well.

Suffering from the lack of water

I love this course. . . when it's suffering from lack of water like this it's just not as fun. The ponds are dried up, the fairways are dry (although I enjoyed the extra roll.) The greens are still decent, and the staff friendly as always, but it's kind of sad to see the condition of the rest of the course.
