I played Harbour Pointe on Tuesday 9/16 with a 1:03pm tee time. From the Whites, course rating 69.1, Slope 125. Par 5s were 485 yards, so not very long. My buddy came in from the airport was at risk of being late so I got there early and the pro shop team was immediately ready to accommodate us if traffic made him late. As it was we teed off on time. I like OKI courses and HP is okay, but I think not as inspiring or manicured as Gold Mountain or Hawks Prairie. 6,055 yards from white tees didn’t seem that long. Im not a long ball hitter and my 200-220 yard drives often left me with comfortable 4-5 irons to the greens. A long ball hitter would be chipping pretty short from the white tees. Greens were in good shape overall, a little small with a few elevation changes here and there but nothing brutal, and average speed (or maybe a little slow) compared to the nicer public courses. There is plenty of water (swamp hazards) on the first 10 holes, but they are placed fairly. The back nine gets hilly, and the cart setbacks are a good 50 yards in front of most greens. As a result, it was the most walking Ive ever done when I rented a cart. The course has few high risk/high reward opportunities, so playing it straight down the middle is what we did. The 11th (?) hole requires a 4-5 iron layup from the tee followed by a totally blind shot over a bluff to a green over 100 feet below in elevation. Theres a pretty view of Puget Sound from this hole. Overall HP is a decent track, except for two problems. For a weekday midday round, it was PAINFULLY slow! As a twosome of solid bogey golfers we waited on every hole from the third hole on. A very nice course ranger (too nice in our opinion) would drive by now and then to explain that a foursome 3-4 groups up ahead was having trouble and slowing everyone down, but no one was every allowed to play through them. It got worse through the round, and our round took nearly 5 hours. The second I thought the $57 greens fee plus $15 per seat for a cart ($72 per man on a weekday), was too expensive. Im happy to pay more anywhere the course is nicely kept and pace of play is within expectations. Overall, HP gets a B for layout and condition; the pro shop staff gets an A; on-course management/pace of play gets a solid D-; and it gets a C for value.

I play here probably 5 or 6 times / summer, and Ive always liked the course. The main reason being the well maintained, consistency of the greens. The front nine demands accuracy off the tees, so make sure your woods are working if you want to enjoy the day. A lot of the hazards are not really "in-play," but act as visual distractions, and they work well. The back nine is a bit more forgiving, and more open with some really beautiful holes. Watch out for the green on hole 13 - its the only one I would call slightly unfair, depending on pin placement. Its a pretty small target, typically a blind shot, and it has a HUGE ridge running down the center. Depending on pin placement, good luck. Take the double and move on. All in all, Harbour Pointe is a good, challenging course that will make you think. Great greens, nice fairways, and lots of elevation change. Layups are common practice here, but the straight drivers can dominate this course if they know when to use it

3 stars because the course is absolutely beautiful! However, the Marshall came by and told us to speed up our pace of play 4 times in 14 holes and we literally hadnt seen the group behind us all day. We teed off, looked back and they hadnt even gotten to the tee box on the hole behind us. When I explained all this to the Marshall, how it was ruining our day and I was close to asking for my money back he realized we were right and started treating us like his best friend. That was super annoying but aside from that experience it was a great course with some amazing views. The Marshalls need to figure out who the actual problem groups are and deal with them. We finished in 4 hours and 15 mins with a group of 4.

This is a good example of a risk/reward course. If you have well hit, accurate shots, it will pay off in your scores. There is trouble all around, so be sure to bring your patience, sunscreen and LOTS of extra balls! The sand was a bit rocky in places, but otherwise in excellent condition. Have your camera with you to capture the beauty of the 11th hole! The staff very friendly and a great place to have a beer or glass of wine afterwards while adding up your scores. A definite MUST PLAY course.

First of all this place has the shittiest golf balls. More than half of the ball dont even have dimples! Second dont ever get the hamburgers at the restaurant. They are soggier than a bulldogs mouth! Staff isnt that great either. I lost something here and I asked if they have it and they said nope without even checking. Course conditions are terrible. Balls are always plugging in the winter. Puddles everywhere. Would not play here or visit again

If you like hitting irons off of par 5s to short layup spots and playing on top of tons of houses on a completely contrived, residential course that is over priced then this is your spot. They should have built more houses on this land and not the golf course. The one positive is the staff is really nice and the greens roll great and fast. The course layout is terrible though. Not worth the money at all.

Range balls were very very old. Course was not in good shape, from extremely dry dirt areas to extremely soggy wet areas. Played it because of the good reviews and the pretty signature hole. Golf cart had to be switched out after 9 hole because the brakes barely worked. Sadly was not impressed, pretty expensive for the quality of the golf course we played. Wont be back.

One of my favorite courses in the NW. Love the elevation changes, and the view from hole #11 is stunning. Played today during some descent rain, and it has been wet lately, but the greens rolled unbelievably smooth and true. They even had a bit of pace to them. I am a big fan of Oki courses, and this one is now on my favorites list.

After having an "issue" with the manager, I discussed it with some of my family. I have since found that everyone in my family has had similar issues with this individual, some coming close to throwing blows. This is not the way to run a business. The course is ok, the food is poor at best, the management sucks.

Poor run facility and twice the price its worth. I was after a good round of Vacation golf and got a soggy course, uneven sandy tee boxes and a Marshall that wouldnt leave us alone even though we finish our round in 4 hrs. Sorry there was a 2 some holding our 4 some up.

Once carved out of the forest, now carved out of the suburbs, Harbour Pointe remains a varied test of golf. A flat watery front nine and a hilly tree lined back nine give the course two distinctive feels. A good design.
