1st off today POP 2.5 hours. Wow what a course. Designed by John Harbottle Jr. From the tips 7300 +. Lots of elevation changes. Terrific par 3’s and I loved the 3 par 3’s and 3 par 5’s on the back. Course record Maverick McNeily 61. 100% links and on the campus of WA State and just beautiful views of the farmlands. Customer service is fantastic (thanks Brian).

Every tee box was level/clean and in top shape. The fairways looked like a Scottish course, with the brown and green grass, but they were firm (lots of roll) and terrific lies. Traps (not many but deep and dangerous) were so clean and playable. Lots of tall grass (in place of rough) outside of the fairways, that is deep and virtually unplayable. The greens are large (and fast today at 11.5) undulating and just great. They all are below the cart paths (wind protection) in large bowls, with unique ridges around them, allowing you to use them to chip into the green (great design idea). Highly recommended if/when in the area. Great Courtyard and Residence on campus 5 minutes from the course. This is a course not to miss, if you love golf (like all GKer’s do). Great restaurant on site.
