About

The Classic Golf Club in Spanaway sprawls across rolling hills blanketed with towering Douglas firs. Located just 30 minutes south of Tacoma, it is one of the area's hidden gems, offering not only a beautiful natural setting but also a challenging round. The layout features elevated greens, tree-lined fairways, and ponds and wetlands that come into play on several holes. The greens are the most challenging element of the golf course. Some are small, which is tough enough to maneuver as it is, and most are framed by mounding. Sand bunkers also provide contrast against the smooth and fast-rolling greens. The Classic is a challenging course but still playable for all skill levels.

Family Fun Course

The course is challenging but fair with narrow fairways and fast greens. The Marshall was out trying to encourage pace of play. The only two cons are: the price I would expect to pay those prices for a much better course. #2 There is no driving range for warming up.

Need a driving range back.

This course ins really fun, much harder than the Executive 9 at High Cedars, lol. My wife and I enjoyed it and plan to return soon. Wish they could do a driving range somehow again. Need that for the complete package. Great practice greens and chipping areas, yellow tee boxes felt like after thoughts.

A layout this tough should be in better condition

A layout this tough should be in better condition.

Dry conditions are understandable. But plastic sheeting seen coming thru the bunkers with rocks. Random pot holes in the fairways. Amongst plenty of other things.

Sad really. I suspect it’s going the same route as other courses that have sold out to developers.

Greens are good though!

Good course for us

This course could use more directional signs and repair leaking sprinklers, but it was good for us. Rough is not unplayable, much of it mowed. Greens in good shape. I like it and will play again

Unfamiliar

It has been many years since I last played this course and some changes were made which made things different and unfamiliar
