A great course in bad shape currently
I have played this course many times and have always enjoyed it; but, this time was very disappointing. The greens were in terrible shape with many dead spots and quite bumpy and difficult to put. The fairways were exceedingly wet and the grass was nearly the rough.
Perhaps it will dry out somewhat and regain it's usual beauty and play as the spring progresses.
Great winter greens
The greens were smooth and rather fast even with a morning rain before the round.
Will play here again!
Great course conditions during the winter, friendly staff and awesome rates!
Beautiful course
Well worth a trip to the peninsula
Just over the hood canal bridge
great course, tall fir and cedar border fairways. elevated tees and greens
Have played this course many times before and Its a great summer course. The date I played for this review was Sept 29 and there was standing water on greens and fairways with bunkers filled with water. Carts driven off paths will do serious damage to fairways. Went to play this somewhat local course because my home course was aerating greens. Great value for the golfnow.com rate of $23.00 with cart had it been a month or so earlier in the year. Suspected I made an error when the parking lot was empty and the putting green was like a giant sponge. Welcome to Fall golf in the Pacific Northwest !!!.
This course is a nice layout in a beautiful setting.
Enjoyed the day, the course was well maintained and the staff were friendly. We had a foursome and were able to play with no one in front and no pressure behind. It was a beautiful day and the course is a fun course to play and very scenic.
A rainy round of fun
The weather was horrible for my first time on this course, but still had fun and enjoyed the round. Will definitely go back.
Greens need attention
The greens are uneven, made up of multiple grasses that leave gaps in the surface affecting the putt line.
Some beautiful holes!
Friendly accommodating staff. Good golf and food. ,
Not easy...
The course challenges us to figure out where the ball will roll or putt...often not as expected. Need to keep trying!
great time for all
My foursome was treated outstanding from the time we arrived until we left. Course was great condition.
One of a kind golf course with every hole different and unique.
Great public golf course, challenging, beautiful scenery with easy pace of play. Tide & Timber are both great but different from one another. You don't get tired of playing the course.
Lots of blind holes.
Play 2 or 3 times every summer. Beautiful views of Sound and Cascades.
this course is average
course was ok...no better than a lot of other courses for a lot less money
Nice course on the Olympic Peninsula
I hadn't been to Port Ludlow for many, many years but enjoyed my recent round. Used to be three nines, now two. The course was well maintained, although it would have been nice if they weren't maintaining it so much while I was trying to play (mowers were annoying). Greens were hard and fast but true. Plenty of water and sand challenges with several forced carries off the tee. Overall a nice layout. About 3:45 for time on the round which was fine.
Fantastic day!
Have played here several times...always a great experience!!
Course is in immaculate condition!! Paired up with good people making it that much more enjoyable.
Beautiful course, friendly helpful staff.
Can't think of a better way to spend the 4th of July - great weather and a fun challenging course.
Bueatiful unique course.
Beautiful 18 hole course. It's a shorter course, but certainly still challenging with a great variety of unique and picturesque holes. The greens were 90% playable (some brown/dead edges) and mowed for about a 10.5 on the stimpmeter which allowed for genuine roll without being ridiculously fast. Yardage marked with 200/150/100 posts along the fairways, colored circles on the cart path, and fnt/cnt/bck on many sprinkler heads. Tee boxes were nicely maintained and level. Fairways were manicured and gave some roll. Avoid the bunkers because your lie will be difficult to judge. Walking the course involves significant elevation changes but most holes provide a short distance from green to the next tee box.
Gorgeous
First group in the morning was enchanting with a wee bit of ground mist rising as the sun came up. Course was in outstanding shape greens rolled true,,,,,,but oh watch out for very challenging breaks. Not very many flat spots. Though local to me, the only time I play it is when I snag one of the golf now specials......and then...what an incredible bargain.
Excellent woodland course on Olympic Peninsula
Port Ludlow is an older course once ranked among the state's best. The proliferation of newer and modern courses moved it down in the rankings some but it has been in excellent condition the past few years. Greens are always excellent and combination of sun and moisture this spring and early summer has kept fairways in excellent shape. Pace of play is excellent on my visits in the past few years. Local members happily allow faster players through and non-member guests are well treated. Staff are friendly. Modest clubhouse facilities keep focus on golf and sandwich options make for a good meal before or after the round.
