Detailed description

North Bellingham Golf Course, is a Public, 18 hole golf course located in Bellingham, Washington.

North Bellingham Golf Course is a wide-open Scottish Links-style course. That means tall grass lining most holes waiting to hide any wayward shots. Add to this the usually present wind with no trees to break the breeze and you start to see the unique challenges of North Bellingham.

The course has prevailing winds out of the southwest. And wind will be a major factor in almost every round played.

Don't mistake the lack of trees on the course to mean bland scenery. You can see Mount Baker from just about everywhere on the course and a great view of the San Juan Islands.

The wide-open course has plenty of water, sand hazards, tall grass and, the ever present wind. How tall is tall grass? Well, let's just say that in summer it is played as a lateral hazard. Tall!

Par for the course is 72. From the back tees the course plays to 6,816 yards. From the forward tees the course measures 5,160 yards. The longest hole on the course is # 11, a par-5 that plays to 564 yards. The shortest hole on the course is # 14, a par-3 that plays to 156 yards from the back tees.

Watch out for # 6, a 487 yard par-5 challenge and the #1 handicap hole on the course. The easiest hole is # 10, a 370 yard par-4.
