Olympia at Olympia Country & Golf Club

Olympia Country & Golf Club sits on the southern edge of Puget Sound in Washington's capital city, occupying rolling terrain characteristic of the region's glacially shaped landscape. William H. Tucker designed the course in the early twentieth century, part of the era when Pacific Northwest golf was establishing its foundational layouts. The property features mature Douglas fir and cedar that frame fairways, with elevation changes that provide both strategic interest and views across the surrounding lowlands.

The routing takes advantage of the natural topography, with holes that move through corridors of native forest and across more open ground. Water features appear on several holes, reflecting the area's abundant rainfall and proximity to Puget Sound's southern reaches. The design emphasizes accuracy over distance, with tree-lined fairways that reward thoughtful placement and penalize wayward shots in the dense Northwest vegetation.

As a private club in a smaller capital city, Olympia Country & Golf Club serves as a traditional gathering place for the local community. The membership includes business and civic leaders from the Olympia area, and the club maintains the social and recreational traditions common to established Pacific Northwest country clubs. The course has hosted regional amateur competitions over the decades, contributing to Washington State Golf Association events and providing a competitive venue for players throughout the South Sound region.
