Great intuitive course
Nothing about this course is particularly challenging but that’s the great thing about it. You show up, have a great time. M

Great short course!
Course is great, however the dry conditions are killing the tee boxes and there are many dry spots on the course. The staff is great and the greens are awesome but just a little slow. Probably because the amount of play helps to keep them healthy. Would recommend playing. Tons of fun.

Good for beginner/practice round
I play this course a lot. Is it the best? No. Is it the best maintained? No. Does the nearby rendering plant smell real bad? You get used to it.
I play it because it's relatively cheap (look for deals online), easily walkable, and a good, forgiving course to practice your swing and course management skills.
Because it's cheaper and easier, it draws a lot of people, and thus has a propensity to have a lot of slow play. There's no ranger patrolling, so you just have to deal with it or end your round early if you're in a rush.
It's nothing flashy, but it does the job (and it's easy to book as a single).

Great local inexpensive option if you dont mind slow play
Nice amenities, fun course, quite simple but perfect for some practice as links layout makes it tough to get into trouble. Course was in great condition - staff was very nice - twilight pricing is the deal.

Great conditions
Hadn't played here for a couple of months and was pleased to find great conditions all around. Tee boxes were in good shape. Fairways well groomed and filled in nicely with grass. Greens nice, a little slow. Played with a couple of nice guys and were able to play in less than 4.5 hours with only a little waiting along the way. Nice to see a marshal roaming the course, too.
Thank you so much for the great review. We are glad you had an incredible time, and we hope to see you again soon! Thanks for choosing Foster Golf Links.

Memories
I used to play this course with the guys when I was working in Renton. It’s been about 15 years since.
I decided to play it again. I found the deal on GolfNow worth coming from Tacoma to play it. Had flashbacks of the company tournaments we used to play here back in the day.
Plenty of birdies to be had and got paired up with good folks.
Highly recommend this course
