Rating 74.0

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.

Nice course is beautiful setting

This was a great round of golf for the money. This course was in great condition, greens were reasonably fast and the overall settings of the course are just great. Some holes even have a view of the water which is an added plus. Weill be back again.

Recovery Mode

It was a warm sunny day and perfect for a round of golf.. The scenic views are amazing. Unfortunately our region has had over 5 inches of rain during the month of April. Many areas of the course were soggy. The roughs were extra long because the mowers couldn’t mow. I’ll Give this course a couple solid weeks of dry weather to dry out then play it again.

Over 3 hours to complete back 9

Took over 3 hours to play back nine with no marshal in sight the whole time. Not worth the time from Seattle. Most people don’t have 11 hours to waste in a round of golf.

Walked

not yet ready for play

The greens are in great shape but the rest of the course is not in good condition. The fairways are extremely wet and the rough is unplayable in some spots. There was no water put out on the course and the on course bathrooms were locked, so clearly they are not yet ready for golfers. However, when the course dries out it is worth a look.

I really liked the course

I was able to get out on the course for a great price with a cart and the course was in great condition. Only downside was it was cold as heck. The staff was great! The Hot Chocolate machine was not working when we made the turn and they got it fixed and tracked us down on he course and provided hot chocolate at no charge due to the hassle of it not working. The effort was very much appreciated.

Best course I have played in Washington State

I have nothing bad to say this was a great time despite unfavorable weather. The grass was in fantastic shape and the greens rolled true. I will for sure be back even though a long drive from Tacoma.

Great Shape

They aerated the greens 3 weeks ago so they weren't back to great shape, but they were good. A little slower than they were during the summer when they were fast. Course is in great shape as they have done a lot of work on it the past couple years to get it back to the way it was in the early years of the course.
