Auburn Golf Course sprawls across the rolling hills that run alongside the Green River. Originally built in 1948, the course was bought by city of Auburn, Wash. in 1968. The course has gone through major renovations in recent years including the reconstruction of nine fairways, 15 greens, and 17 tee boxes. The layout sprawls across more than 150 acres of lush hillsides, offering scenic views throughout. The golf course has a classic design with 20 bunkers strategically placed throughout as well as two ponds and a waterfall that come into play. Though you will face a variety of different lies that to the undulating landscape, there aren't any blind shots to contend with. Auburn Golf Course combines challenging elements with playability, making it a course that appeals to players of all skill levels.

Course was damp from morning dew and lingering fog. But overall play was satisfactory. A fun course and the staff is very friendly.

Lovely

The gold tee boxes have changed significantly since the last time I was here --much more friendly to women although they weren't mowed as nicely as the men's tee boxes. The pin placements were very difficult on some holes but that just adds to the challenge. Greens and fairways were well-kept. The outside door to the restrooms was locked which was unfortunate. The only backups we had were at the par-3 16th and 4th holes. We watched lots of balls hit into the water on 16. But a beautiful, picturesque setting.

Marshall Needed

Only reason I give four stars because there was no marshall around to regulate the paste of the course. I hope the day I was playing was isolated issue.

Foursome in front of us was slow playing. There were two holes open in front of them.

I like this course.

Great local course

Auburn is a nice course just outside the busy areas of Renton/Kent. Plenty of parking, club house at a welcoming, central location. Carts are in excellent shape and clubhouse very clean.

They have a nice restaurant with an outdoor patio which looks right at hole 9's green. Fun to sit outside and enjoy a beverage and food while watching people hit their approach.

The course itself is in current great condition. They beautify the greens as with most courses with a little bit of Hollywood magic that might turn it a lush color of grass, which I think is a great sign of maintenance guys taking pride in their work. Very walkable course, however there is a giant hill that goes up to the upper tier of the course at 11 which can be problematic for a lot. As well as the decline on 15 which is of course physically easier but something worth noting. 15 has an interesting tee shot from the whites/blues as you're hitting off a cliff onto the fairway some ways down. 16 is the signature par 3 that hits over the water with a waterfall in the background. Challenging and fun!

Best municipal course in the South Seattle Tacoma area!

Auburn Golf Course has fast smooth greens true to the roll. Every hole is completely different in layout design and difficulties. Dog legs both left & right and some great elevation holes. Best summer golf for sure.

A very nice municipal course

I had a morning tee time and teed off slightly early which was great. The course was in nice shape and I felt that this was a very good public course. The back nine takes you up onto the top of a hill and those were nice holes to play, although we got really bogged down at that point and had to wait to hit every shot for the last 5 or 6 holes. Hole 18 is a great finisher.

Surprisingly nice condition

Picked this because it was halfway between a buddy and I.
Had a very enjoyable day at a nice venue. No complaints other than it was a slow Sunday.
