Sahalee Country Club

Private: A course for members and their invited guests only.

Est. 1969

Sahalee Country Club is located close to, but not quite on the shores of Lake Sammamish outside Seattle. The famed country club is home to a 27-hole championship golf course that ranks with the USA's best. Here you will find one of the country's most admired tree-lined parkland courses, with an outstanding array of excellently crafted and challenging holes to play.

The North, South and East nines loop their way through impressive avenues of towering Western red cedars and Douglas firs. The array of straightaway and doglegging holes are played along Sahalee's notoriously tight fairways. You'll certainly need your A-game to prosper here ... that's "A" for accuracy! And beware the greenside water hazards, which pose an occasional threat, particularly on the North and South nines

Limited access: this private course is generally playable only by members and their invited guests.
