Nile Shrine

Although only 5100 Yds tougher than you would expect. Some of the holes are a little funky but overall, they take really good care of the course.

NIle has some great holes

I have played Nile 20 years. Always enjoy the quirky starting uber short par 4s - but narrow with trouble- the couple of really tough but good and fair golf holes and the overall solid conditions and greens. IT never is a let down - good and close to Seattle - no houses or anything to deal with aside from golf. It was playing firm yesterday and #3 (wish you could FEEL the lake more from the tee - probably not allowed to limb that up to show off the water) is a BEAR when you cant stop the drive from outrunning the dogleg. The 6th hole is also a GREAT short par 3 - to a green that needs to be approached from the front. #8 is a great hole, #12 is a beast. #15 - 17 is a nice, NW routing that rewards well played, conservative shots. But begs you to hit driver and see what you can score.

For the value, location and the FUN round, Nile is tough to beat.

Local gem

I mistakenly thught this was a private course for many years, but fortunately discoved mid-summer that it is public. While not a particularly long track, it provides enough variety to challenge lower handicappers and yet is approachable for beginners. Course conditions through the three times I've played during the second half of the summer are far superior to other municipal and ppublic courses in the Seattle to Everett corridor.

Day at the Nile

Nile is a fun place to get in a round after work. Good value course with a couple of goofy holes to start out but, overall a fun place to play.

seattle golfing experience

Nice course north of Seattle, in good condition.
Nice greens, consistent roll. Fairways in good condition.
Un usual course with no par 5s but the differing lengths of the par 4s and having quite a few doglegs and well placed hazards.

App changed date

I put August 13th as day to play and app automatically put the 8th as day to play and I did not catch it, so I was not able to play and I’m out $50. This is not the first time the app defaulted back to the day of, not the date I punched in.
