Although the course is located in a metropolitan area just north of Seattle, it is well-enclosed and has a park-like atmosphere. The fairways are narrow, gently rolling. The greens are small to medium in size, fairly flat and two are double tiered. The signature hole is #14, a 578-yard, par 5, requiring a lay-up tee shot from an elevated tee box. The second shot must carry over water. Course access with a cart is weather dependent. This course is owned by the Shriners, but is open to the public. However, only members of the club are allowed to use the restaurant and bar.
