Discovery Bay Golf Club

71.1LooperAI score

Port Townsend, WA

Discovery Bay Golf Club is an 18-hole, par-72 public course in Port Townsend, Washington, playing 6,641 yards from the Blue tees. It opened on May 9, 1925 as Chevy Chase Golf Course on farmland tied to the historic Chevy Chase Inn, and the club bills itself as the oldest public course in Washington. The front nine crosses the old farm pasture and is comparatively flat; the back nine has real elevation change, with views of Discovery Bay and the Olympic and Cascade ranges from the 10th tee. Silver forward tees measuring 3,799 yards were added in September 2017. The property has the only covered driving range on the Olympic Peninsula. Leashed dogs are welcome on the course, and the club cites a 2019 BringFido ranking as the top dog-friendly course in the country.
