Detailed description of Homestead Golf & Country Club

Homestead Golf & Country Club, previously named Homestead Farms Golf & Country Club, is a Semi-Private, 18 hole golf course located in Lynden, Washington.

The Homestead Golf & Country Club golf course first opened for play in 1993. The course was designed by William Overdorf,

Homestead Golf & Country Club winds its way across what was once dairy land and is now one of the real surprises of Northwest Washington golf.

The course has wide landing areas and multiple tees for the recreational golfer and length, doglegs and hidden hazards to challenge players with some game.

This is the only course in Washington with a par five that plays into an island green. But this green not only has water around it, it has water on it. Hit it short, you're in the drink. Hit it long, you're in a rock garden and waterfall. That, combined with spectacular views of majestic Mt. Baker makes this a course you will remember.

Homestead hosted the 2004 and 2005 Great Links Northwest Open. >
