Its Simply Horrible... Including way overpriced for what you should get (value wise). Sad to say... The Management Butchered the Course by removing trees everywhere and dont bother even to cleanup the mess or the ridicules countless mounds of wood chips and huge stumps or root-balls nor appear even to care. The debris form recent storms dont seem to bother them either. Seems that the thousands of trees they have removed looks like what slash areas in the forest looks like when deforestation occurs. Their excuse is that the course needed the trees removed to let the course grow better. Doesnt explain why hundreds of trees in the middle of nowhere are now stumps amongst never maintained areas were toppled. It appears that the owners needed extra cash and sold the best commodity the course had. Im sure the owners would argue otherwise of which I wouldnt believe them one iota due to the serious unmaintained areas. As we played, the surrounding neighbors (yes homes on the course) targeted us to let us know how mad they are at the golf course. They pointed out in great detail how bad the management of the course has deteriorated even their own back-yards and they themselves are required to cleanup after the "lazy" grounds crew. One guy told us that he blows the crap back to the golf course every day. One woman made a point to let us know that the ground crews only smoke and sit in their carts instead of doing any work. She also mentioned that the equipment the course brought to strip mine the course had no regards for them at all. Furthermore mentioning that the homeowners Association is pissed. They apparently let fivesomes also play on Saturday mornings because we followed several of them. They overload the course in the same way they stripped the trees out of the course. It used to be a nicer fun course while challenging to play. We played with a mens club member and he mentioned the membership is dwindling. He also mentioned that Gold Mountain / Columbia hospitality is taking over this month. Hopefully not too late because they have a clue. If you decide to play this course, consider yourself warned. Ill come back in 3 years to see how it turned out. Okay - One single good thing to point out is that the greens are very nice in spite the crazy undulations.. If you have to play this course...

I loved this golf course, but I have to admit I am biased because I worked there for 5 years. I think it is one of the best layouts around and was in great shape the last two times I played it. I would have given it five stars,but I was there a couple weeks ago and was disturbed by what I saw. The Ryan Moore Group destroyed this golf course. They cut almost every fir tree on the course down. I am glad they were not interested in the oaks. The RMG group is bad for the industry, enviroment and should be banned from one of the top industries in our state.

This is a terrific layout. A strong set of par 4s and varied set of par 3s. There are three par 5s. Two of them are really 4 1/2s, with number 9 being a true 3 shot 5. They cut over 300 fir trees late last year and a finishing up the repair work on that major project. The course is already showing signs of having better turf, fairways and the greens are really responding to the increased light and air flow. They are firm, true and VERY fast! A delight to play!! This is a better golf course than it is given credit for and it is on the upswing!!

If youre looking for the best publicly accessible golf course in the Tacoma region, look no further. All of the classic charm of a country club - tree lined fairways, pure and fast greens, great clubhouse and restaurant facilities - but open to the public. Friendly and considerate staff, welcoming environment. They do have membership offerings as well, which based on the rates also have to be the best value around. Cant get enough of this place, proud to call it my home course.

Mary and Alyssa helped coordinate a lovely catered spread for my grand opening party, the food was fantastic as was the service. They worked with me to make sure I had everything I needed and went above and beyond in the process. Very impressed by this hidden gem would certainly love to do events with them in the future.

My expectations were based upon this now being a public golf course. They have chopped down several hundred trees and there is still some clean up needed. That being said, the greens were in excellent condition and the bunkers and fairways were also in very good condition.

This is a great course, it has that traditional country club feel, great facilities, a very friendly place. Greens are large and very true, fairways and grounds are friendly to any level of golfer. Plenty of shade available for those hot summer days.
