| Harbour Pointe Golf Club's course , which overlooks Puget Sound, features a low-lying front nine dotted by wetlands on every hole. It's not the prettiest playing field, but it calls for accurate shots on the occasional tight landing areas. The rolling back nine opens up considerably and a number of holes offer dramatic views of the Sound. The second-shot angles on the par 5's are interesting. After the course was built, homeowners erected screens along holes #14, 15 and 18 to deflect wayward balls from the residences, which were built close to the holes. This course was selected by "Golf Digest" as the "Best New Public Course" for 1991, as the 2nd "Best Public Course" in the state in 1996, and 58th best out of "America's Top 75 Affordable Courses" from the list of "America's Best Golf Courses Everyone Can Play" for 1996. |
