Dining & Lodging recommendations

Lodging: 

We recommend finding something near Chambers Bay  or The Home Course, (we personally detest long course commutes) so, as long as you find somewhere South of Tacoma you'll be good—University Place / Steilacoom area is best in our opinion.


  • Where we'd stay (1 - 2 people)
  • Big group? We'd go here.


Dining: 

The region is known for some of the freshest seafood in the states; so if you're feeling crab or sushi—there are many great options around. 


  • Where we'd eat (6th Ave - Tacoma) *Pumpkin ravioli 😋


Golf Points of Interest:


  • Check out the largest indoor golf facility in America, Evergreen Golf Club.
  • Forgot something? Pro Golf Discount is my preferred stop and offers several locations around the state.
