shuksan golf club

It is adjacent to Western Washington University and its outdoor sculpture park, the trails all connect.

Four couples go here each year to golf and relax. We love this course, especially in the fall since it has so many colorful trees on the course. The breakfast burrito is yummy and wait until you get a hot chocolate with peppermint schnapps made by Darcie. Darcie is the Queen of the Cafe. The drink itself is reason to go there but the course is fun.

Shuksan Golf Club is tucked away off the Guide Meridian, north of Bellingham. I play the course once a year, for a birthday outing with a couple of foursomes. This is a course you'd want to ride, as very hilly & some pretty severe elevations. Condition is usually very good. They have however changed a few things over the last couple of years. They did away with their putting green & also no longer take Canadian at par on Tuesdays. I would recommend the excellent muni course at Lake Padden less than 30 minutes souith, which to my mind is equally good and is about half the price.

This is a really neat course. The thing I like the best is the speed of play. We never had to wait for the group ahead of us and we were never pushed by a group behind us. The different elevations at this course make it unique and the course layout is fun to play. You might want to rent a power cart if you play due to the elevation changes.

Awesome scenery and mountain views. While I am not a golfer, my husband has played it. It's hilly and beautiful, and we used to eat at the clubhouse for the view and the food on special occasions.

Played here in the last week of May. When we arrived, it was raining and the forecast called for more. The guy in the pro shop actually said he wouldn't hold us to our tee time, since the weather was bad. This is the first time I can ever recall a golf course employee being honest about the weather. Most of the time, there could be a hurricane blowing through and you'd be told, "Oh, it'll pass, go on out".We decided to grab a bite in the coffee shop and see how things went. Good food and a solid value. By the time we finished breakfast, it was just drizzling and there appeared to be clearer sky on the way.The first and tenth tees are very elevated, and the view is beautiful. Drives go a long way, so you'll feel like a big hitter. We did have a white-knuckle drive down the winding cart path. Rain and shade made for a slick trip, but we survived.The course is challenging, but fair, most of the hazards are easily visible. While the course was wet, we found only a few areas of standing water.While the course would be walkable, there are a lot of hills, so it would be quite a workout.I'd love to play here again in sunnier weather.

This course is a hidden delight. Some people choose to walk this monster however a cart will make the day far more enjoyable. For you and those behind you. One and ten offer incredible elevation that make for exciting starts to the front and back nine! There is nothing that compares to an elevation drive to a fairway that seems miles below you. And you get to experience this thrill again on 18 along with water and sand fun. But I jump too far ahead....There is danger and reward on every hole.....so do not expect an easy or forgiving course. However, the vistas, distances and varied landscape offer consolation for those errant shots.There is a bar and restaurant available for food before the round, at the turn and then for the 19th. It's not a spectacularly large restaurant / bar but the view from the deck is spectacular. And you'll find the food totally acceptable.Finally, the staff is what makes this location shine. Everyone is friendly, helpful and wants you to have the best possible time when you are there. So go golfing there.....what are you waiting for? Pick up the phone now and make a tee time!

Just played this for the first time and mud (plugged) balls everywhere. Greens are quite bumpy and some have fungus and winter kill. Only $27 @ 1 pm, so it's good value, and its a good work out / walk for sure, for those carrying. Played blue tees.

Our daughter's wedding was held on the terrace at Shuksan Golf Club. It was a beautiful setting and fortunately a beautiful summer day. After the ceremony we enjoyed hors d'oeuvres and drinks on the deck. The dinner buffet of steak, chicken and a variety of salads was delicious and many guests commented on the quality of the food. I highly recommend Shuksan Golf Club as a wedding venue!

I went to shuksan and it cost 40 bucks with a cart which I think is a great deal for this course. The elevated tee boxes offer spectacular views and the course plays fair. Great value for your dollar

Worth at least one visit due to the drastic elevation change. Rates are decent in the winter. Golf cart recommended.

Played the course on August 31 - teed off at 2:00 PM - 5+ hour round which sucked, but course was in excellent shape with wicked deceptive greens - &^%$#! three-putts. A really fun course to play with elevated tee boxes and greens and lots of water. Used driver only a handful of times rather than going deep and wet. $90 all if for my 15 year old and I with a cart and range balls which I thought was an exceptional value given the course quality and conditioning. Only drawback was that marshals should have been moving the groups quicker. The foursome in front of us was walking which would not only be physically taxing but really slowed things down. Would definitely return to play again.

The course has it's share of challenges and hazards . Reasonable prices. Allows for two somes. A lot of hills and valleys. Personally, I would not want to walk this course, although some do. I think the air quality is better here than Sudden Valley.

Nestled out in the Rural country side, this golf course is not only stunning to play but a real challenge. I recommend a golf cart though some do walk the course. Several holes including 1 and 10 are situated with tee boxes high above the fairway making for exciting tee shots and steep walks down and up. Lovely clubhouse overlooking the course. Great pro shop. Friendly staff.

Easy 35 min. drive from border. Cheap green fees,good rate for seniors, Interesting opening tee shot. Several steep climbs up to next tee boxes to hit back down to fairways. Fun course, not too difficult but some challenging holes
