White Horse Golf Club has one of the toughest courses in the Northwest. Situated on the Kitsap Peninsula, the course is located just five minutes south of the Kingston ferry terminal. The course sits on the Puget Sound between the Olympic and Cascade Mountains, offering panoramic views on every hole. When the Suquamish Tribe bought the club in 2010, one of their top priorities was to make the course more playable. They enlisted John Harbottle for the job, a local architect who has designed several layouts throughout the state. By taking out nearly half of the bunkers, he opened up the greens and made them more approachable. He also widened the fairways and made the landing areas more generous. Since the update, White Horse Golf Club has become one of the most popular on the peninsula.

Nice course to play at. Other than rude players all around us. No respect for us. People here are very entitled. Would not recommend bringing new players to the game here

AMAZING course but.

No longer offer the free shuttle on the other side. This increased the cost to get there around $50. One thing we thought was that the course has no first cut of rough. Miss the fairway (which is very easy to do) and you are in thick rough. Maybe a first cut for 5 to 10 feet then the thick stuff would be nice (and appropriate)

Challenging test on a cold, windy day from the tips.

Greens were recently punched and sanded, so they were slow and bumpy. Otherwise, course was in great shape, bunkers were nice, etc.
