Rating 69.1

Gleneagle Golf Course in Arlington is just an hour north of Seattle. The 5,949-yard, par-70 layout may seem relatively short, but it's a course that will test your shot making skills and accuracy with strategically placed bunkers and undulating greens. The layout makes up for any lack of length in many other ways, including the treacherous rough that lines the rolling fairways. Water hazards come into play as well, but there are more on the front nine than the back. There are some challenging holes but overall, players of all skill levels will enjoy the golf course, especially with its backdrop of cedar and fir trees spread across rolling hills. With a driving range also available, Gleneagle offers one of the area's best values for the money.

Nice course worth playing

Short course, but plenty of challenges. Lots of fairways sloped left to right which is difficult for a fader of the ball. Lots of hazards not seen if new to course. Greens run true but slower than most other courses. Worth playing if in the area.

Just a fun course to play. There could be a little better signage when crossing roads. But nice new carts and awesome greens.

Too slow pace

I booked for 18 and only played 9 because I was waiting 10min per tee…understand everyone has the right to play but someone should make sure the pace is accordingly. Was going for a 6 hr round and was not going to spend that much time. There should be someone making sure the pace is good.

It’s got some water

Many ponds and streams that need to be avoided and a little on the narrow side with big trees edging the fairways except where houses encroach. Not long but lots of terrain changes and slopes, it is challenging. New carts are nice.

great coourse

It was the first time to play golf for me in Seattle area. This course is licated in the clean and beatiful local residence. I was lost to find out #5 as some of the holes are not set side by side. You have to be careful not to lost to find out #5 and #9. Anyway it is a great course though.

Fun in the sun

Beautiful fairways, greens, and views. Nice get away from the city. I met a great ball striker name Matt. He was a pleasure to play round with. It was more wet than a couple of weeks ago. Lots of lift, clean, and set for a fluffy lie. Bring some extra balls if you can not hit the fairways consistently. The brand new golf carts are amazing. Great value for your money.

Beautiful day

I play GleneEagle 2-3 times per year.. I live in Redmond so I can only get out a few times per year. I enjoyed the course and the upper 70s degrees day. I noticed they replaced all the golf carts with brand new carts. Nice to drive around in a new vehicle. The course forces you to aim small to avoid trouble on some of the narrow fairways. The greens are in great condition my putts were dropping in better than normal. There are many types of lies depending where the ball lands. You have to adjust to many up hill and down hill lies. Most of the fairways were dry. There was very little trouble with wetness. It is worth the drive out to Arlington. Have fun!

3.5 hour round

Started on #10 as a single and finished in an hour and a half. My back nine took well over two hours as I did run into a threesome that was struggling along and had no idea what ready golf was or how to allow a single to pass through.

There were noticeable tire tracks throughout the course from what looked like heavy equipment that was operating during wet conditions. Some, if not all the sand traps resembled OB hazards vs an actual sand trap. Either way, fun times on a cool local track.

Needs serious attention

This course has been neglected and could be great again if they'd just clean it up. The course has experienced a great deal of rain this spring so the mushy and mud areas are excusable but could be addressed with an aggressive topdressing program. The bunkers have grass growing within an haven't been raked for quite some time, obviously. Stairs and other manmade parts are in total disrepair. They really need to fine tune the details to regain this gem of a course! The greens are excellent though, quick and true rolling healthy surfaces! Kudos for this only shiny star here currently.

Good Course

I do not understand why Gleneagle is not busier. It is a par 70 with a lot of character. Lot of elevation changes. Lot of wide fairways which is why I only give it a moderate rating. Par three's are challenging. Some good risk/reward holes. Winds through a residential neighborhood which can be intimidating to some, but the houses are not really in your face, except on one par five where the fairway is tight.

The price to play 18 is hard to beat. I like to walk it, but you can get greens fees and a cart for a good price.

Really good greens, inconvenient reservations

Course was in very good condition except for the bunkers. They were unplayable, but was told they were going to be redone soon. Greens were great.

My foursome would like to play here on a regular basis but the reservation system requires payment when made. That means one person has to pay for every player with credit card. One person doesn’t show there is no refund. No other public course I’m aware of does this. Also, if you rent a cart they take your license and hold it so you will bring the key into the office. Kids take off and joyride with them. I totally forgot and left the cart with the key in it like every other course I’ve ever played. They never called me to let me know they had my license. I had to cancel a medical appointment because I realized one week later that I left my license at the club house. Not my problem that no one has eyes on there carts. Change these these two policies and we will return.
