Washington state contains 165 named golf courses and country clubs distributed across 148 cities and 33 counties, according to data compiled from the USGS Geographic Names Information System, the federal gazetteer of officially named places. The directory organizes these facilities by their geographic location, making it possible to search by municipality or county.

Because the GNIS database catalogs named geographic features rather than actively operating businesses, the listing represents a partial and potentially dated snapshot of the state's golf landscape. A newly opened or recently renamed course may not yet appear in the federal record, and operational details such as public or private status, green fees, and course layout fall outside the scope of GNIS documentation. Those seeking to visit a specific course should use the directory to identify and locate facilities by city and county, then consult the course's own website for current information about hours of operation, rates, and tee time availability.

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.

How to use the Washington 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.
