About the club
Many 100 Greatest courses began as open fields, then had decades of green committees plant trees to frame fairways; many of those same clubs are now clear-cutting such trees to open up vistas and invite more sunlight and air to greens. Sahalee is not such a club. Its course was carved from a Pacific Northwest forest of cedar, spruce, fir and pine, and its dominant theme has always been narrow fairways framed by towering trees that reach to the heavens. To strip Sahalee of its trees would be to shave Samson of his locks, so when Rees Jones and Steve Weisser began a 2022 renovation of the famed North/South nines where the 1998 PGA Championship and 2016 and 2024 KPMG Women’s PGA Championships were held (Jones had previously remodeled the course in 1996), they were calculated in their approach to thinning the forest growth. Gradually, they pared back the treeline to better expose the site’s topography. They were able to expand fairways to enhance shot options and took out individual trees that had come to interfere with strategic angles into greens. What players may notice most are the new bunkers, each rebuilt, reshaped and repositioned to better engage with landing areas and putting surface hole locations. Sahalee seems at once refreshed while being absolutely the same carved-from-the-woods course it’s always been.

Exceptional experience at a world-class venue! I had the pleasure of attending a recent security summit at Sahalee Country Club, and it exceeded every expectation. The course is absolutely stunning, surrounded by towering evergreens and perfectly manicured grounds, it offers a peaceful and inspiring atmosphere for any event. The staff was incredibly professional and welcoming, and our caddy was amazing, knowledgeable, friendly, and added a ton of value to the day. Every detail was spot on, from the facilities to the overall hospitality. Whether you’re here for golf or a private event, Sahalee is truly something special. Highly recommend!

I went to watch the LPGA. It's about 30 minutes by taxi from downtown Seattle, and there is a free shuttle bus to pick you up and drop you off. The golf course was very beautiful and I was able to watch the game comfortably. I also got an autograph from Hinako Shibuno.
