Type Public
Par 72
Length 7005 yards
Slope 126
Rating 73.1

Located just 20 minutes south of Tacoma, Eagles Pride Golf Course in Fort Lewis is one of the area's best golfing values. Originally opened as the 18-hole Fort Lewis Golf Course in 1940, it soon became known as one of the best military courses in the country but it's also open to the public. Another nine was added to the layout in 1979. The three nines, known as the Red, Blue, and Green, are played in different 18-hole combinations. The Red/Blue Course is the original layout. The classic design is player friendly but at the same time challenging with an abundance of trees lining the fairways and greens as well as tricky elevation changes that make it tough to find a flat lie. Each hole offers plenty of variety.
Previously known as Red/Blue at Fort Lewis Golf Course.

Fun day

Started out in a drizzle but it quit after 5 holes or so. Course is in good shape, even with all the moisture lately. Got paired with a couple of fun guys, made for an enjoyable day, even though I did not play well. Only 2nd time playing green course.

Well maintained & fun

Not too hard but not a place you want to play if you miss a lot of fairways. Will definitely be back.

Customer service not good

Booked online and that was easy through GN. Buddy got there 1 hour before our tee time and when he paid and asked for the cart the guy at the counter said " No not giving you a cart it's way too early" I had this same experience the last time I booked too. This guy doesn't understand basics of customer service and that it's ok to have rules but don't be a jerk to people because you can. His body language when I booked a while ago was very rude with me too. I got there 50 minutes prior to Tee time and asked for the cart as well and same experience it wasn't that was the rules it's how he speaks to you. Frankly like your not a paying customer. He has an ego like he's the only golf course out there. Well your not and now after treating me this way and a good friend of mine that's a Veteran we will never return. It's ok to have rules and all but someone needs to teach this guy how to talk to people. It's not what you say but how you deliver it like a good person. Very unhappy and will tell all our friends to never go to your course.

Great Value

Really nice track and well maintained. During busy periods pace can be slow because t-times are close together. Love the holes, layouts and overall all 27 holes are enjoyable. Love that there are zero houses, huge old trees but wide fairways to work with.

What’s with the Ladybugs?

Everything is cool with the course except the swarms of ladybugs this time.
There were so many that they messed with the play. At one time I’d were 50 in the cart and also crawling over you when trying to play…
It was really annoying at times.
