Alaska contains two named golf courses and country clubs according to the USGS Geographic Names Information System, distributed across two cities and two counties. The GNIS serves as the federal gazetteer of named geographic features and provides authoritative location data for established facilities.
Because GNIS documents named geographic features rather than current business operations, this directory represents a snapshot that may lag behind recent developments. A newly opened or recently renamed course may not yet appear in the federal system, and operational details such as public or private membership status, current fee structures, and course layout specifications fall outside the scope of the GNIS record.
Those seeking to locate a golf course in Alaska should use this directory as a starting point for identifying facilities by city and county. Confirmation of a course's current status, operating hours, rates, and tee time availability should be obtained directly from the facility's official website or by contacting the course management.
Alaska golf by county
Directory note. Listings come from the USGS GNIS named-feature gazetteer (2021 vintage) and are partial — public/private status, green fees and course layout aren't in the federal record. Confirm details on each course’s own site.
| Course | Locality | County |
|---|---|---|
| Fairbanks Golf Course | Dogpatch | Fairbanks North Star |
| Moose Run Country Club | Fort Richardson | Anchorage |
How to use the Alaska directory
Start by narrowing to where you want to play — by city, or more reliably by county — then open a course for its locality detail. Every listing is a real, named facility from the federal gazetteer; for tee times, green fees and public-or-private status, check the course’s own site, since those aren’t in the GNIS record.
