One improvement needed

I absolutely love playing The Rope Rider course at Suncadia.

I think that it's both challenging and fair. And it's fun.

But for $160, I would expect the bunkers to be of higher quality and better conditions. They were atrocious.

Love This Course

This course is great in so many ways: challenging but not too penalizing, in great condition, variety of holes, requires strategic thinking, beautiful scenery,

The only complaint is the traps don't get smoothed often enough with all the deer that travel through them. Hoof prints make for bad lies.

Beat course within Seattle metro

Great course layout and conditions. Fairways are always in great shape. Greens roll true. Better value than Newcastle

Beautiful course just miles from Snoqualmie pass

A quick drive out of Seattle, you'll be treated to destination class golfing. There are two courses and Prospector is the gem of the two. Immaculate condition, beautiful views, greens rolling at a 10, and tee boxes even and well staggered.

Carts and range balls are included in the fees. The cart has an entertainment system with music, news, videos, an active gps and Bluetooth pairing for personal music. My ears sense a JBL speaker fitted and sound great even in the loudest setting - just be mindful of the volume when playing near others.

Absolute worth the time and drive. Arnold Palmer design team course.

I could not make my 2:40 tee-time at Roperyder Suncadia yesterday due to serious traffic. The is only one highway in, 40 miles in, and it was blocked by an accident. I cancelled with Roperyder and could not make contactt with Golfnow. I hope I am not charged, we could not play.

Beautiful Course

Beautiful golf course. The fairways and greens are in great condition. The bunkers desperately need some work as they were shockingly bad.

So good

It had been over 15 years since I last prospector. It exceeded my memory as a great ‘Northwest inspired’ track. The greens were perfect, fairways and Blvd jers too. Fun layout, I hit every club in my bag. The tenth tee shot vista is second to none. Great staff, friendly starter, not a complaint to be found.

Over rated

The course is fairly new and no holes is really stand out. It’s not worth $128+ taxes. Lucky I didn’t book during prime time,
