Allenmore Golf Course is located in the heart of Tacoma but thanks to the beautiful setting with Mt. Rainier serving as a backdrop, it feels like it's actually miles from the city. The layout is just over 6,000 yards from the back tees and though it's not particularly long, it offers plenty of variety. It's a course where you'll have to use every club in your bag. Trouble lurks at almost every turn in the form of doglegs, trees, or out-of-bounds. Water hazards also come into play. With uphill, sidehill, and downhill lies, the course is never boring and while there are some challenging holes, there are also birdie opportunities if you play strategically. In addition to the golf course, Allenmore also has a short-iron driving range and a practice facility with chipping and putting greens.

fun day

Enjoyed the day. Always seem to golf with people that are fun to golf with. The coarse is being improved so a few problems. Would be fewer if I kept in fairways. Coarse layout makes it enjoyable to play.

Hi johnh1530, thank you for taking the time to leave feedback about your recent round. We are currently replacing our entire golf course irrigation system which necessitates turning off our irrigation pumps for multiple days during active construction and then overwatering when we are able to turn the irrigation back on.

Our teams are working diligently to keep the course in shape as we work through this maintenance period. We anticipate the project will be done this winter and the course will be in excellent shape for next spring! Please feel free to reach out with any additional concerns and we hope to see you on the course again soon.

Hi Munizza,

We are currently replacing our entire golf course irrigation system. We have been getting a handful of negative course condition reviews lately. Unfortunately, we must turn off our irrigation pumps for multiple days during construction and then overwater the course when we turn them back on. Also, we have multiple mainlines that our broken and sprinkler heads that don’t work. The superintendent has done a great job during this challenging time and the course really isn’t playing that bad.

Thanks for choosing our course.

Twilight Round

The layout is decent and the staff was friendly. Greens were in okay shape. Fairways were hard pan in most areas. Pace of play was horrendous. Would not recommend for twilight and conditions this time of year.

Pretty tight course

Tight course and greens ran smoothly with no “hops” on the roll. Some holes had a lot of dead grass, but I’m guessing with the slope of some of the hills, the water can’t really stay. Played my best round out here and it was well needed.

Allenmore GC

Played Allenmore in the early morning and the condition of the greens were great, extremely improved from earlier in the summer. Green speeds were fast, very smooth, and very consistent throughout the round. Great greens for the price, they make the course.
They have a substantial sprinkler upgrade project going on, but the impact is fairly small for how big of a project it is. Hopefully the overall condition will be improved once the upgrade is complete.
Course is overall in decent shape considering the work taking place and you can tell they need the upgraded system to provide more even coverage across the fairways. The value is great considering the condition of the greens and they really do make the course. The layout is OK, but you need to really put your approach shots in the right spots and not short side yourself.
