Great value

Spanaway is a very nice course, and a great winter course. Greens were freshly punched and sanded, but course conditions were otherwise fine. We’ll worth the cost.

Great weather made a great round

Foursome thoroughly enjoyed the layout. It was the first outing of the year. Puts were rolling straight and drives were rolling out. Most enjoyable to get out on such a nice layout on such a nice day.,

Bunkers are being repaired. Greens are getting better. Rocks in rough and bunkers are a problem. Cart paths always a problem Hope it continues to improve.

Lake Spanaway

A fantastic old school layout with giant trees and reasonably fast greens. The course management is definitely making great improvements the last 16 months.
