Sandra White: Hitting the Links in Port Townsend

Hitting the Links in Port Townsend

Port Townsend is a special place for any golfer.  Temperate climates, only 19"of rainfall and very few days with  snow on the ground, plus 15 hours of daylight in summer makes a perfect environment for year round golf.  There are two courses in Port Townsend, and many more in the surrounding areas within a 30-45 min. drive.  Both clubs have organized play, both mens and ladies groups,  plus special events and  tournaments all year long.

 Port Townsend Community Golf Course

1948 Blaine Street

The location in the heart of town makes for easy access in your golf cart from most of Port Townsend.    This nine hole, public course is open year round, and you can walk the course if you prefer.   Fees range from $12.50 for 9 holes to $25.00 for 18 holes, with money saving passes and special rates for seniors and junior players.

 The scenery is outstanding with views of Olympic Mountains, a small lagoon with beautiful fowl, and lovely trees.  There is a pro shop and café, covered parking for your cart and a good driving range.      image of Port Townsend Golf Course  image of Port Townsend Golf Course image of Port Townsend Golf Course
