Enjoyable place.

I am new to this course. I didn't intend to come to this golf course because I thought I would hear a lot
of airplane noise, but when I got there, it was so well maintained and the greens looked like the best
golf course, so I forgot about the airplane noise. The course is short, flat and has few hazards. Very good
golfers will avoid it, but you can enjoy the game comfortably with your friends. In addition, there is a
restaurant with good taste, good service and atmosphere, so we could enjoy drinking nice taste cold
beer after the game.

Haven't played here for about 6 weeks and was very pleasantly surprised to see how hard the groundskeeping staff has worked to make the course so nice. Easily the best it's been since I've started playing here a few years ago. Thank you and I'll be back soon.

Foster Greens - Wet

Foster Greens is always a good course to get your swings in. The course, like most courses in Seattle area, was very wet, with many standing water areas on the fairways, in the traps, and even on a few greens. For the most part, it was okay, but I had to play preferred lies, lift clean and place, even on some greens. I lucked out with the weather, as it poured in the early a.m., but cleared up for me during my mid-day round.

The grounds crew was lazy, in that greens that had a lot of leaves, twigs or small buds on them were not cleared, or swept. It would not have been much work to clean those greens up.

Otherwise, the course was in good condition. I was glad to get a round in when it was NOT raining.

Nice day for golf

Despite recent very rainy weather, the course was pleasantly dry, for the most part. I had last played here a few months ago and the fairways were very muddy. The grass is now fairly lush and much improved. Greens were in good shape. Other than the pace of play being a little slow, it was an enjoyable round.

First Time at Foster Golf Links

We played on Mother's Day and the golf shop staff were so friendly and welcoming. The course was so fun, fairly easy and in good condition. Perfect place for beginner golfers to get their shots in! The front 9 was easier than the back 9 with a water shots. Lost a few balls, but that's okay. We walked first 9, got tired and picked up a cart. Facilities were in great shape and clean. Convenient location for middle way for Seattle and surrounding neighborhoods. Will definitely play here again with friends! Thank you for a great time!

Foster’s Big Bang for the Buck

Foster never disappoints, from the courteous, welcoming staff, to the well kept fairways and greens, and the two par three’s that cross the Green River.

Special praise for those beautiful, seemingly bottomless bunkers. Who knows where they get their sand, but the consistency is uniformly soft, and the brownish color is so darned much easier on the eyes than the blindingly white silica found at high-end courses and on the PGA Tour.
