Four city-owned courses spread across town, each one open to anyone with a tee time, and together they make up public golf in Seattle. Interbay, Jackson, Jefferson and West Seattle all belong to Seattle Parks and Recreation, while a private company runs daily operations under a city contract. With only four courses serving a large city, tee times go fast, so book ahead through the city's golf page instead of counting on a walk-up slot.
Who Runs the Courses
Because all four courses belong to Seattle Parks and Recreation, you are playing on true public facilities. Premier Golf manages them day to day through an agreement with the city, which gives you one system covering every municipal course. Rates, booking rules and course conditions all come from that same operation, so once you know how one course works, you know them all.
Meet the Four City Courses
Interbay
Head to Interbay at 2501 15th Avenue W, tucked between Queen Anne and Magnolia. Its central location makes it an easy pick when you want a round close to downtown.
