About this course

West Seattle Golf Course is a municipal layout designed by H. Chandler Egan and opened in 1940. The course moves through rolling ground near Camp Long, with a varied routing that asks for accuracy from uneven lies and changes character between its two nines. Several holes open views toward downtown Seattle and Elliott Bay, giving the back side a strong sense of place.

Fox Den Grill is the course's diner-style bar and grill. Its casual clubhouse setting makes it a straightforward place for a meal or drink after the round, with none of the formality of a private-club dining room.
