Alderbrook Golf Club
Played On 03/17/2015If you like white stakes this is your course!
Short course, narrow with way too much out of bounds. Very close to much better options...Gold Mountain (both courses) and Trophy Lakes.
Kayak Point Golf Course
Played On 07/19/2014Kayak showing it's age!
Kayak for many years was a poor man's Semi'Ah Moo. One of the hidden gems that truly represented golf in the Pacific Northwest. Now almost 40 years later the course is showing it's age. The greens, fairways and tee boxes all need to be rebuilt. Will Snohomish county find the money to restore the course? It could be to the county like the Gold Mountain Olympic course is to the peninsula. I would love to see this course restored and added into the rotation of the Snohomish County Amateur.
Until then, try and find a deal and play during the week to avoid some of the slow play.
I really miss the all grass 18 hole putting course. That was a great way to introduce people to golf and a cheap way to spend a nice evening with the family.
Eaglemont Golf Club
Played On 07/06/2014Used to be a top course in the State!
4 years ago Eaglemont was one of the best courses in WA! It was in top condition and they made some adjustments to the course so if you played the correct tee boxes it would provide the appropriate level challenge.
Oh how the mighty have fallen! This course is now one of the worst maintained courses in WA state. The greens are soft, bumpy and slow...maintained like somebody's back yard. They must believe that if the greens are green in color they are okay, but they are not! You're lucky if you catch them on a mowing day. Otherwise it's like playing from the rough on the tee boxes and fairways. I mean really...several weekends in a row you could barely make out a fairway or had to pick grass on the tee boxes to clear a spot! On the weekend when they should be getting their most play?!?
The bunkers...the few that have sand in them...are raked so lazily that all the sand has been pulled up around the edges.
It's as if the owners spent their maintenance budget on the clubhouse and forgot about their most important asset...the course. It's either that or nobody remaining on the maintenance staff has ever played golf or worked on a golf course. Just sad...really sad...for the nice kids left running the pro shop.
I guess that's why it's so easy to get a tee time now and why they've had to start offering internet deals to try and entice people to play? Somebody should buy the course who cares about it!
Avalon Golf Links - West/South Course
Played On 06/21/2014Some of the best greens in WA!
Avalon has some of the best greens in the state, but make sure you have some time to practice before you play as they are firm and fast!
Fun course with interesting holes on all three 9's. Play South/North if you want the biggest challenge.
It's never a bad day...just ask the bald eagles nesting between holes #5 and #6 on the west course!
Gleneagle Golf Course
Played On 05/10/2014Improving conditions...show they care!
The course has had problems over the years but they have obviously been working hard on the course conditions.
Homes are still too close for me to play here very often, but I'm adding it back into the rotation a few times a year because of how hard they are working!
