About this course

Colfax Golf Club sits in the Palouse region of southeastern Washington, where the town of Colfax occupies a valley surrounded by the area's characteristic rolling wheat fields and steep hillsides. The course reflects the practical, community-centered golf tradition common to small agricultural towns across the inland Northwest, serving local members and visitors in a landscape defined by dramatic topography and open skies. The routing works with the natural contours of the Palouse terrain, which means golfers encounter elevation changes and uneven lies throughout their round. Fairways follow the folds and ridges of the land rather than fighting against them, and greens are typically positioned to take advantage of natural plateaus or bowls in the hillsides. The setting offers long views across wheat country, with the course itself providing a green contrast to the surrounding farmland that shifts from golden brown to fresh green depending on the season. Like many small-town courses in eastern Washington, Colfax Golf Club functions as a gathering place for the community, with a clubhouse that serves as a social hub beyond just golf. The course provides straightforward, honest golf without pretense—a place where the challenge comes from reading the terrain and managing the wind that moves freely across the Palouse rather than from elaborate design features or manufactured difficulty.

Getting there

Colfax Golf Club sits in the rolling Palouse country of southeastern Washington, most easily reached via Spokane International Airport (GEG), approximately ninety minutes to the northwest, where rental cars and regional ground services connect travelers to the quiet agricultural landscape that defines this corner of the state. The drive south from Spokane traces through the distinctive undulating terrain of the Palouse - a patchwork of wheat fields and gentle hills that gradually reveal the club's secluded setting near the small town of Colfax. Those with access to private aviation will find Spokane's Felts Field (SFF) a convenient alternative for a more direct arrival. The final miles unfold along quiet country roads, where the landscape's natural contours and the club's understated presence signal entry into a destination prized for its isolation and the authentic character of the Pacific Northwest's agricultural heartland.
