This course s layout was built on hilly terrain in the Cascade Mountain foothills It is surrounded by Douglas firs and on a clear day no course has a better view of snow capped Mount Rainier Elk deer and bald eagle sightings are not uncommon here The fairways vary in size and most are tree lined Water hazards come into play on twelve holes and there are sand bunkers sprinkled throughout the course The greens are medium sized sloped and generally fast The signature hole is 12 a 182 yard par 3 which will have you thinking The green is guarded by a U shaped lake in front so you may want to take an extra club to make sure you avoid the water If the wind is swirling par is a very good score here All of the tees are rated for both men and ladies
