About this course

Gold Mountain Golf Club's Cascade course sits in Bremerton, Washington, on the Kitsap Peninsula west of Seattle across Puget Sound. Designed by Ken Tyson and opened in the mid-1990s, it serves as the companion layout to the club's Olympic course, which preceded it by several years. The facility operates as a municipal complex managed by the city, providing public access to both courses in a forested setting characteristic of the Pacific Northwest. The Cascade routing works through dense stands of Douglas fir and other native conifers, with elevation changes that create a hillier playing experience than many lowland courses in the region. Tyson's design incorporates the natural topography, asking players to navigate uphill and downhill lies while managing tree-lined corridors that reward accuracy over distance. The course measures over 6,700 yards from the back tees, though multiple tee boxes accommodate a range of skill levels. Cascade has hosted various regional amateur events and qualifiers over the years, taking advantage of the conditioning standards maintained across the Gold Mountain property. The layout complements the Olympic course—which has received more national attention and rankings—by offering a distinct test that emphasizes shot-making through the trees rather than open, links-inspired terrain. Together, the two courses make Gold Mountain a notable public golf destination in western Washington, drawing players from the Seattle metropolitan area and beyond who seek well-maintained forest golf at accessible rates.

Getting there

The journey to Gold Mountain Golf Club begins at Seattle-Tacoma International Airport, followed by a scenic hour-long passage west that trades urban sprawl for the maritime character of the Kitsap Peninsula. Most travelers cross Puget Sound via the Tacoma Narrows Bridge, where the roadway arcs high above churning tidal waters before descending into dense Douglas fir forests and rolling terrain. The final miles wind through Bremerton's wooded outskirts, climbing gradually into the foothills of the Olympic Mountains until the clubhouse emerges amid towering evergreens - a Pacific Northwest sanctuary where salt air meets alpine tranquility.
