Overlake Course



Overlake Golf & Country Club, nestled in the heart of Medina, is a testament to traditional Pacific Northwest golf, where towering evergreens frame each hole and the crisp air carries the scent of Puget Sound. The course, originally designed by A. Vernon Macan in the early 1920s, meanders through gently rolling terrain, offering a classic parkland experience characterized by strategically placed bunkers and subtly undulating greens. The layout favors a thoughtful approach, rewarding accuracy over sheer power and challenging players to navigate doglegs and thoughtfully placed hazards. While Overlake may not command the international spotlight of some championship venues, it has been a cherished fixture of the local golfing landscape for a century. The club has seen several modifications over the years, each intended to modernize play while maintaining the integrity of Macan's original vision. The club fosters a strong sense of community amongst its members, drawing from the established families and tech luminaries of the surrounding Eastside. Overlake is known for its unpretentious atmosphere, where camaraderie on the course is as valued as the score. The annual club championship is fiercely contested, reflecting the pride and passion members hold for their home course.
Most visitors arrive through Seattle-Tacoma International Airport (SEA), roughly thirty miles south of Medina, though Boeing Field offers a discreet alternative for private aviation just minutes closer to the Eastside. The drive north traces the eastern shore of Lake Washington, crossing floating bridges or skirting the water's edge through neighborhoods where old-growth Douglas firs frame glimpses of the lake and the Seattle skyline beyond. As you turn into the wooded enclave of Medina - home to some of the Pacific Northwest's most private estates - the road narrows and quiets, delivering you to Overlake's understated gates with the serene assurance of arrival at one of the region's most storied clubs.
