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.

Whitehorse

I always enjoy myself playing out at Whitehorse .The course lay out. Makes it feel more like a journey through the woods than a track of holes back and fourth as no holes are really bordered next to each other and look completely different . Very challenging as well and can play very different from one set of tees to the next .had great company as I met some good people and managed to do something I have never done before which is hit every fairway . greens were not as pure as they normally are due to them being unusualy soft , overall the course was in great shape .

Cynthia Dye McGarey pays homage to Pete Dye

This course is amazing, visually intimidating but wide and fair fairways with big undulating greens, I will say we lucked out and played on a nice day, and the conditions were amazing even in March. Drains really well, some mushy spots but mostly off to the edges of the fairways. If you’re into a course that will beat the crap out of you, and leave you with a smile, look no further.

Awesome, Challenging Course

White Horse GC was a perfect golf experience, everything about the course was high quality considering the heavy rainfall over the last few weeks. The green are very firm and roll fast. The fairways were firm with very little standing water. A very challenging course, keep it in the fairway to have a decent score...bring lots of balls if you battle a hook/slice. This course is fantastic and a great value considering you have to take a ferry from Seattle to reach it.

The last round of 2020?

The course was in good shape, though somewhat soft - as to be expected this time of year. The greens were surprizingly fast and challenging as always.

Golf course is in great shape. It would be nice if golf carts had navigation. It is really hard to figure out distances. Pace of play was good and cart girl was friendly.
