Tacoma is honored to be considered the home course of several PGA professional golfers.  Founded in 1894, the Tacoma Country & Golf Club is among the premier private country clubs in the Northwest.  Perched on the banks of American Lake, the clubhouse offers an unequaled setting for weddings, banquets and other private special occasions. Amenities of the club include a world-class 18-hole championship golf course complete with a large all-grass driving range, sand traps, chipping and putting greens and a practice hole where golfers can hone their short game.  In addition to golf, the club has an Olympic-size swimming pool, a lakeside boat dock with swimming area, tennis courts and…

When Rainier Golf & Country Club opened it’s first nine hole “golfing grounds” on September 15, 1920, it was considered one of the finest private “out-in-the-country golf links” in the Seattle Area.  Originally the course consisted of what is now the back nine and there was no clubhouse.  Bob Collins, the designer, builder, and first Golf Professional at Rainier, was quoted in the August 29, 1920 Post Intelligencer as having lined up 198 prepaid members and a long list of golfers awaiting his “golf instructional work.”   Rainier, the second oldest private golf club in Seattle, has matured and evolved into one of the most imaginative and demanding tests of golf in…

A fair but challenging course, Fairwood offers excellent private club conditions with smooth fast greens, great pace of play and well drained year-round playable turf conditions.  The full size and length practice range, large practice green and short game areas are available for players who seek to fine-tune every element of their game.  From the beginner just learning to play, to the low-handicapper, and everyone in between the course will provide both challenge and fun. Fairwood has earned the reputation for having some of the purest putting surfaces in western Washington.  Undulated greens coupled with varying hole designs require a range of shots and players will often use every club…

Famed golfer, Byron Nelson, once scored a 59 playing these links. He later returned for a nostalgic visit where he played such a fantastic game. When asked why he was back, he replied, “It was the only course I’ve shot 59 on!” Bud Ward, many time state and national amateur champion, started his golf career on our course. Established in 1914, and moved to its current location in 1926, it started as a nine-hole course.  Additional property was purchased in 1957 and the course was expanded to 18-holes.  A pro shop, swimming pool and deep water dock were built at that time.  The grounds are continuously upgraded with new drainage and…

The Home Course is about as good as modern public golf gets. Everything is super-sized–the fairways, greens, and bunkers are all at massive scale–which makes some sense for this course, to allow for the frequent winds off Puget Sound.  The Home Course is very playable for golfers of all skill levels, but still poses a significant test for low-handicap or scratch players. As a championship test, it’s as interesting as its sister, Chambers Bay, thanks to challenging green surrounds, and its scenery is almost as good.   The par 3′s in particular will definitely get your attention here.  The course features gentle elevation changes throughout the course, for the most part,…
