Salish Cliffs Golf Club
About
Salish Cliffs Golf Club, part of the Little Creek Casino & Resort, is located 20 minutes from Olympia and is just a little over an hour from Seattle. When the course opened in 2011, it was named "Best New Course" by both Golfweek and GOLF Magazine. The dramatic landscape of the course travels up and down over 600 feet of hillside, providing panoramic views of Kamilche Valley. The golf course is covered in bentgrass turf more frequently found in tropical climate, but that is just one of Salish Cliffs' many unique amenities. Each hole offers a unique challenge. Though the fairways and large greens roll true, accuracy is essential or you'll be severely penalized for missing them. The course finishes on a positive note with an opportunity for a birdie if you favor the left side all the way.

Very nice experience
Can I give this a 4.9999?
Really enjoyed playing here. The layout is beautiful and kept in perfect condition. Staff is friendly and helpful. It really is a resort course feel.
$95 is pricey, but it did come with a cart with GPS, range balls, and tees. Course is near the ocean (about 40 minutes away) and the fairways a lush. So, it has heavy air and no roll, so the course plays longer than the yardage says, ended up having to hit a lot of 4s and 3s to greens and not 6s and 7s.. Greens were perfect, no bumps and few tricks, they just rolled beautifully.
Why would I mark them down a little? My GPS didn't work for the first four holes (they brought me a new cart), the coffee shop is, well, a coffee shop, not real nice for a place of this type. Finally, their was a drunk group of guys behind me on the back 9 yelling and being obnoxious. Not what I expect from a resort course. Finally, I didn't get my 10% 55+ discount, even asked for it.
I'm being petty, sorry.
I loved the place and will be back.
Costco pack mistake led to an unmistakable day of golf.
First off I lost like 20 golf balls. You hit it anywhere off the fairway or fringe and the balls was gone. Eaten by the hungry fescue. The course was amazing. Staff was amazing. Del is the man. I cant wait to someday go back.
By the way if you are curious I went to buy a 2 pack of rounds to Auburn golf course for $45 and they gave me Salish instead.
It only takes one...
A lovely course I've wanted to play for some time. I'd definitely like to come back in the summer. The only blemish on an otherwise great experience was the slow play. The group ahead of us took 18 min. to play the 1st hole. It took an hour to play 4 holes! The staff fixed things at the turn. That was 8 holes too late to my mind, though.
Wet but playable
With all the rain the greens were outstanding. Cart path only slowed things down. Course was totally worth the drive.
Winter Wonderland
End of year frost delayed start and left 11 holes closed. Staff is very friendly and the young man (Caleb) working as valet were great. With the frost, staff was able to open seven holes and allowed unlimited play or till dark. The course does not allow walking and with someof the distance between holes it is understandable. I feel the winter rate is way to high considering many other courses are cheaper. 40 to 60 dollars for winter golf is pricey. I had a Golfnow promo code and reserved a Hot Deal for $45.00 and only got 14 holes in. Restaurant is great with awesome burgers and tremendous staff. Perhaps I may play again in the spring or summer if I can get another good deal.
this course has great features
winter golf in the northwest. it was in good shape little wet in places greens were better than expected
A must play if you're in the area
Great course with lots of features. First time playing there, but will return. Lots of elevation changes. The course was in great shape, considering the recent drought. Greens were fast but ran true. Nice practice facility and range balls included in price.
Beautiful Course in excellent setting
First time played. Would play the course more since it's only 20 miles from my house but cost of green fees are too high for me to play more than every so often.
Enjoyable round of golf
Very nice facility and the course was in great shape. Staff is very friendly. Tha carts are great with a nice GPS and score keeping unit. I thought the $60 fee was fair all things considered. I'd play there again.
Close to perfect!
Just a great course! Excellent greens - rolled fair and true (wish I would have made a few more of my putts). Super friendly staff and the fairways, hazards, rough, etc., give you plenty of opportunities to challenge holes and yet punish the errant shot. Look for a good deal, pricewise, and this will surely be a special round for you. We loved it and look forward to playing it again.
Amazing course, definitely a must play in Washington!
The course was an excellent condition. The tee boxes were amazing, fairways were good and greens are fast and true. The staff was friendly, from the bag drop off, to starter, and cart girls, everyone was friendly. Course definitely is challenging but fair. Risk reward, excellent views. Watch out for garden snakes, show several. Pace of play was good, played in 4 hours with a slower 4some in front of us but didn't really wait on any tee boxes. Worth the drive from Seattle, also they have Hot deals during the week, so if can, buy one and go play. Won't be disappointed.
Great time, great course
The back nine has a lot of places you need to carry but it is wonderfull, challenging and in great shape. Plenty of shade in hot weather.
You Must Play this Course!
The course is challenging with beautifully maintained greens, fairways and tee boxes. Friendly, helpful staff are there to make your golf outing enjoyable! Play it and you will want to return!!
Nice but not worth the drive
The course is in great shape, looks beautiful but after driving the two hours from Seattle the dead flat bunkers were a bit disappointing. In my opinion it is not worth the drive. If you are in the area though it is a must play.
Outstanding
Enjoyed the challenge. Course is not cheap, but was in excellent condition. Staff was great. We will be back.
Awesome course!
The staff was super courteous and helped us tremendously because they knew that it was our first time there. The scenery is very nice and each hole gives you something to view outside of playing golf. The course is very well maintained and is very challenging. On the day I went the wind was blowing mach speed but that just added to the challenge. I drove 3 1/2 hours to play this course because I had heard a lot about it and was well worth it. I will definitely be going back.
Immaculate
Salish Cliffs is first class. The course was in beautiful shape: green fairways and challenging true greens. The back nine is more difficult than the front, in my opinion. Each hole is framed nicely, and territorial views are seen throughout the course. The practice areas are very nice, especially the area by the first and tenth tees. The food in the restaurant is good and provides a nice atmosphere, also has a nice outdoor seating area. Everything about this place is top notch and I look forward to returning.
Always fun and challenging
The course is in good condition. It was windy which always adds to the challenge. The course has a nice variety of holes with drivable par 4s and long par 3s/
Beautiful and Challenging
Course conditions were excellent. Nice layout where you can tee off with different clubs. Greens were terrific. A bit windy which makes club selection important.
Joanie came by with the beverage cart several times and made sure we had sufficient provisions.
loved putting on the greens. Smooth and speedy.
Great course
What a wonderful place to play golf!! The course is in great condition, the tee boxes feel like plush carpets!!
4 holes in an hour...were the mext 4 in an hour too? Then if you played the ninth in 15 minutes that is 2 hour 15 minutes for 9 holes so about 4 hours and 30 minutes for 18.....sounds like a good pace for Salish as it is normal to play in 4 1/2 to 4 3/4 hours there.
