The course is worth playing for those who live in a 20 or 30 mile radius, but it is slightly overpriced for the overall experience, especially considering the clubhouse facility leaves a lot to be desired. The course itself is a very nice challenge and the greens rank among the best in the area, even though they tend to be quite difficult to read. The course is built over areas conducive to standing water, which makes it wet to a fault during the rainy season, which in the Pacific Northwest, is more than average. From June through September, however, it's a very nice course and a good challenge for most players. The holes offer a nice variety and positioning tee shots is important on nearly every Par4 & Par-5 hole.
Would travel: 10-20 Miles, Not Vacation Worthy
Bottom line: I would play again, Average course for the area
