About this course

The Olympic Course at Gold Mountain Golf Club opened in 1996 as the second eighteen at this municipal facility in Bremerton, Washington. Designed by John Harbottle III, the course was built on forested terrain characteristic of the Pacific Northwest, with tall evergreens framing fairways and elevation changes that reflect the region's topography. The layout takes advantage of natural contours and wooded corridors, creating a parkland experience that contrasts with more open links-style designs found elsewhere in the state. Gold Mountain operates as a public facility owned by the City of Bremerton, and the Olympic Course serves alongside the earlier Cascade Course to provide accessible golf on the Kitsap Peninsula. The routing moves through stands of fir and cedar, with holes that require accuracy off the tee and thoughtful approach play into greens protected by natural slopes and strategery. Water features appear on several holes, adding variety to the challenge. The course has hosted regional amateur competitions and qualifiers, reflecting its standing among public facilities in western Washington. Its location near Puget Sound places it within reach of golfers from Seattle and Tacoma, and the facility's dual-course setup accommodates significant play volume. The Olympic Course offers a solid test for mid-to-low handicappers while remaining playable for recreational golfers, with conditioning and maintenance standards typical of well-regarded municipal operations in the region.

Getting there

Gold Mountain Golf Club is most easily reached via Seattle-Tacoma International Airport (SEA), roughly an hour's drive southwest across the Puget Sound region toward the Kitsap Peninsula. The route traces the I-5 corridor before branching west, where the landscape gradually shifts from urban sprawl to the quieter, forested terrain characteristic of the Pacific Northwest - a transition marked by glimpses of water and the gradual emergence of Douglas fir and western hemlock. Private aviation options exist at nearby Bremerton National Airport (PWT), a short fifteen-minute drive from the club, offering a more discreet arrival for those traveling by charter. The final approach to Gold Mountain Golf Club winds through the understated beauty of Bremerton's residential corridors, arriving at a destination that embodies the region's understated elegance rather than ostentatious grandeur.
