About this course

The University of Idaho Golf Course serves the university community and public golfers in Moscow, a college town in the Palouse region of northern Idaho. The course was designed by Frank James and occupies rolling terrain characteristic of the area's distinctive agricultural landscape, where gentle hills and natural contours shape the playing corridors. The layout provides a straightforward test suitable for collegiate competition and recreational play alike. The routing takes advantage of the property's natural elevation changes, with holes that move across and along the Palouse's signature topography. Fairways generally follow the land's movement, and greens are positioned to incorporate the site's slopes and ridges. The course functions as the home facility for the University of Idaho golf teams, hosting practices and competitions throughout the season while remaining accessible to students, faculty, and the broader Moscow community. As a university course, the facility emphasizes playability and maintenance standards that support both competitive golf and high-volume public use. The setting offers views across the surrounding Palouse farmland, with the course integrated into the campus environment. The layout provides a practical venue for collegiate golf in a region where courses must balance athletic program needs with community access and the operational realities of a northern climate with a defined playing season.

Getting there

The journey to University of Idaho Golf Club begins at Spokane International Airport, roughly ninety minutes north across the rolling Palouse wheat country of eastern Washington and into Idaho's northern panhandle. The drive south on Highway 95 unfolds through a landscape of undulating golden hills and vast agricultural vistas before descending into the college town of Moscow, where the course sits tucked along the eastern edge of campus. For those familiar with the region's quieter rhythms, Pullman-Moscow Regional Airport offers a closer touchdown just minutes away, though commercial service is limited and most visitors find the Spokane route both reliable and rewarding in its own right.
