Royal Colwood Golf Club
Played On 11/16/2019A great golf experience for all talent levels.
Royal Colwood golf course is a ‘must’ for your bucket list. It is over a hundred years old and designed by the great Arthur Macao who designed many courses in the Pacific Northwest. The design makes you hit every club and every shot. Fairways that are relatively generous, but a premium being placed on position off the tee, to open up the best angles into the greens. Towering fir trees and ancient oak trees force you to constantly think about position to work your way through the doglegs and elevation changes.
The greens have few flat spots, so again you have to think about which side you want to putt from. If the greens keeper is in a diabolical mood, you can get pin placements that make you think about even the shortest putts. You will be more than grateful when your opponent declares it a gimme.
Best of all you are never bored, and no two days are the same. A little wind, deeper rough, faster greens and you have a brand new set of challenges.
A modern clubhouse, lounge area and great staff makes the cocktails taste better after the round.
Cheers!
