White Horse Golf Club has one of the toughest courses in the Northwest. Situated on the Kitsap Peninsula, the course is located just five minutes south of the Kingston ferry terminal. The course sits on the Puget Sound between the Olympic and Cascade Mountains, offering panoramic views on every hole. When the Suquamish Tribe bought the club in 2010, one of their top priorities was to make the course more playable. They enlisted John Harbottle for the job, a local architect who has designed several layouts throughout the state. By taking out nearly half of the bunkers, he opened up the greens and made them more approachable. He also widened the fairways and made the landing areas more generous. Since the update, White Horse Golf Club has become one of the most popular on the peninsula.

Bad Service - Tee Time Mgmt

Prepaid using the golfnow app. Got to course, gave name and tee time, purchased range balls and pushcart and warmed up. Went to box for my tee time and there was a foursome ready to go, and a foursome ahead of them. Called pro shop and he stated that I missed my tee time at 12:42 vs the one I have confirmed of 12:51 - catch up to the single who went off at 12:42 which was also false. Walked ahead and saw only foursomes, ended up not playing 1 and 2, following a foursome taking their time and not caring I was behind them. No apology from the pro shop, nothing but feeling like I screwed up even though I checked in and confirmed 12:51. Good course, nice setting, bad service and support.

Making money in my backyard

Whitehorse is a beautiful golf course, highly recommended! … but a warning! locals treat the bunkers like petulant children, I believe the local legend is there is a virus on the handles of the rakes ! (The bunkers are horrible!) footprints 👣 EVERYWHERE!! Beware of the Bunkers !!!!

Great Course

Joined a threesome of members at this course. First time I played here. They were wonderful to play with and helpful in understanding what the holes challenges were. Course is challenging and long. Greens sometimes were hard to hold due to the terrain. Overall a great course that I would play again. Long walk. Over 7 miles to play 18.

Challenging, well kept course

Designed by Pete Dye's daughter, to this is a tough course that requires planning to get around to scoring chances. Spaces between holes can be quite long so prepare for the walk from green to the next tee box, golf cart highly recommended. Cart includes GPS and green reads.

The restaurant is fantastic and the food is quite good. Highly recommend you try something from the kitchen. There's also a dispensary in the pro shop, which is quite rare. Plenty of parking spaces, practice areas are very well kept. Highly recommend visiting, it's one of the PNW gems. Bring and extra sleeve or two.

Winter round

Normally this is an immaculate course, but with all the wet weather we are having the course was in my opinion not playable. Very muddy course conditions and greens were extremely slow ( understandable).

Excellent course and worth the trip

The course was in great condition. The approach shots were designed to be challenging, surrounded by deep sand traps and with changes in elevation. The greens were in excellent shape, as well.

Very Slow Round...

We had a drunk 4 some two ahead of us with a single between and the 4 some trying to stop and teach the single how to play golf. Pace of play was over 25 minutes behind. Did not see a marshal ever even though the carts were yelling at everyone to speed up play. The course is gorgeous and difficult.

Course and staff unfriendly

Course is in very good condition. Not sure I will travel the hour and half distance to play here again. The 18th hole is beautiful. I would describe the course as a links course lined with evergreens, very challenging.

Great Conditions, bad Encounter

The Course was really nice, the staff was incredibly friendly and helpful as well. Pace was very slow, which was fine, but the group behind us kept hitting into us intentionally and was unapologetic about it. Would also essentially taunt us as well, expressing that we were slowing up play due to poor skills. We kept good pace with the group in front of us, constantly waiting for our next shot, so was very odd all around and very frustrating. Part of our group left due to the harassment from the group behind us and did not finish the round.
