About
The Resort at Port Ludlow sits along the shores of the Puget Sound with views that stretch across the Port Ludlow Bay. Located just 90 minutes from Seattle, the resort offers a luxurious waterfront inn, a marina, an award-winning restaurant, and a championship 18-hole golf course. Robert Muir Graves designed the course. He crafted a layout that challenging but rewarding, all while preserving the beautiful natural surroundings. The golf course is just one of 10 in the state of Washington that is a Certified Audubon Cooperative Sanctuary. During your round, you'll enjoy abundant wildlife and panoramic views of the Hood Canal and Olympic and Cascade Mountain ranges. The golf course isn’t long but it's tight and will require both accuracy and strategy. Many holes are dramatically sloped and there are hazards facing you at almost every turn.

Great Day!
Couldn’t have had a better day on the course. Never ran into the players in front of me and never had anyone come up behind me. Peaceful beautiful courses with some challenging holes. A little wet but to be expected this time of year.
Beautiful course
Ludlow plays wet, you will loose a few balls, great course, good greens !
Excellent all around!
Four of us headed over from Seattle for the day. The course was exceptional. The staff, as well as the local golfers, were super friendly. Even the deer were courteous. The course was in great shape. The greens roll a little slow (not an issue once you have faith in the consistency). The service ws quick... and the drinks were great. The patio was a perfect way to end the round. We can't wait to get back.
Short course
Everything was good except for the length of the course might be too short for serious players and long hitters.
Terrific day, uncrowded, good value, course in very good condition. Will definitely return.
Always enjoy my time at this course
I first played this course around 1980 and have played it two to three times a year since the restoration/renovation was done. Can see the outcome manifested in nicely rolling greens and better drainage. Expanding the greens by mowing to approximate original green configurations creates additional interesting pin positions and reduces wear and tear. Rebuilding the bunkers improved their condition from several years ago.
This as top five course in the state in late 70s with courses like Sahalee and Royal Oaks having higher rankings and the only public course among the group. The tree removal program helps with allowing more light and ventilation.
Nice course to meet friends and play around of golf
Had a great time Golfing met some super nice people. The amenities were good. I would recommend anybody in the area to play this. The prices were fair. I enjoyed it. I played all over the country in the last month and this was one of the nicest courses..
Port Ludlow showing age?
I’ve played this course over the years and I quite enjoy the layout. But, the condition of the course leaves a little to be desired. The greens are mostly in great shape however they just need to be mowed, and the pin placements need to be moved more frequently.They were very slow, especially for this time of the year. The rough has improved as the many white flowers have been taken care of recently. The sand traps are good, the tea boxes are OK. The course just looks aged. It seems like it needs a little more tender, loving care.
Awesome views and challenging greens
Love having such a great course 5 minutes from our course.
A Pacific Northwest Gem getting better
I thoroughly enjoy playing this course. I hope they will consider placing yardage markers in the fairways to help those who don’t carry a range finder nor use a cart. It would be a great way to celebrate their 50 year anniversary!
