Camaloch Golf Course is located within the Puget Sound "Sun Belt," which receives only half of the nearby rainfall of nearby courses. Its location on Camano Island also puts it at an advantage during the summer months when the temperatures rise up to the 90s on the mainland, the golf course stays cool thanks to the coastal breezes. The course first opened with nine holes in 1972 and expanded to an 18-hole course in 1991. Known for its smooth and consistent greens, Camaloch G.C. has long been a local favorite. The layout starts with a gentler front nine that features wide fairways and fewer hazards. The back nine becomes much more difficult with several holes that play over water. Camaloch Golf Course's undulating greens putt fast and true, and they are often accompanied by strategically placed bunkers.

My Day at Camaloch

Course was fairly dry except for some fairways but still was not slushy or overly muddy considering the recent record-breaking rainfall. (Great not to have mud all over my pant legs!). There was a touch of wind that was significant for some shots. Green conditions were dry and excellent; also the greens were very challenging to read. This is the first time I played an 18-hole round here. Players must drive the ball well in order to score as the rough is very thick and heavy because of the rainfall, and some fairways are quite narrow. Thoroughly enjoyed my round, and I drove over an hour to get there. Looking forward to my next opportunity to play this course..

cours review

Great vaule. Course was still pretty soggy from recent rains. Lots of balls getting plugged in the middle of the fairways. Tee boxes had not been moved in a few days, they were semi beat up.
Fairways need to be mowed. Greens were in excellant condition.

enjoyable course, weather wasn't what I had expected

I have to start by saying that I'm new to golf, and don't usually go if it's not also going to be a beautiful day, so I was a little disappointed in the forecast being wrong, and it started drizzling about 10 minutes before my round began. Having the cart to keep the rain off was nice, but playing with my jacket on, to stay dry while swinging was a hindrance. That's Spring golf in Washington. The fairways were soggy in a couple of places for the same reason.
Overall, very well maintained course, and friendly staff, I can't wait to try it in a month or two, and hope the grill is open by then too. Great value, and I would definitely recommend Camaloch.

Some of the best greens around for the price and location.

I always enjoy spending a day with friends on this course to get away from work and other distractions. The round will begin with a long dogleg left hole, but can make a super start to the game.

Nice course, but drainage is an issue

I really enjoyed the course. It's a quality design that's moderately challenging with some very good holes. The biggest issue was the drainage. I rode as it was sprinkling, and there had been a fair amount of rain the day before, but I couldn't help but do horrible damage to the turf just walking to my shots. I lost 3 balls on tee shots that plugged in a fairway or near a green.

The back 9 was drier and it's the better side if you are only playing 9. The greens were very healthy and rolled well, but I can't recommend this place during the winter.

A great value!

Camaloch G.C. is well worth the trip from Seattle. The course is VERY well maintained. Hats of to the course staff! The greens are really well kept, and even though it was raining when we started, they remained fast and true. A truly rewarding golf experience, there are many interesting, challenging holes. Had a burger afterwards, and my buddies had various sandwich's, all good! Definitely will return.

Great friendly course, speed of play was excellent.

Camaloch Golf course is a true hidden gem with professional and helpful staff. The pace of play is excellent and the course is somewhat challenging. I have played about 13 rounds there this year and have had an excellent time all 13 rounds.

This course had everything we enjoy about golf...good pace and friendly, fun play.

We were a foursome of women (ranging in age from 24 to 82)and it was quite nice not being pushed! We like to move at a good pace but we also enjoy a relaxed round without feeling like someone is rushing you through. We will definitely be back!!

Greens moderately fast & in decent shape.

Fairways aren't in the best shape & are not consistent in texture. Many brown spots that are hardpan yet there are muddy spots mixed in. Greens are nice shape & moderately fast. Roll pretty true. Staff very friendly. Speed of play was good - 4:15 hrs. Cost was good @ $24 for walking. Easy walking course.

The course has some interesting holes.

I have played this course in the Spring when it was wet. Nice to play it when it was dry. The greens are fast with some of them very hard to read due to the slight undulations.
