Welcome to Holmes Harbor Golf Course
Nestled on the shores of Whidbey Island, Holmes Harbor Golf and Beach Club offers one of the most visually stunning rounds of golf in Washington State. Our 18-hole, links-style executive course is fun and challenging for golfers of every skill level — from beginners to seasoned players — with sloping fairways, undulating greens, and dramatic elevation changes all framed by sweeping water and mountain views.
Power carts are available and make the course extremely flexible — play a full 18 holes in just over three hours, or squeeze in 9 holes in about an hour and a half. Whether you have a full day or just an afternoon, there's always time for Holmes Harbor.
From the moment you step onto the first tee, you'll understand why golfers keep coming back. Scenic vistas from holes 1 through 18, a signature par-3 eighth hole with a dramatic 100-foot elevation drop, and a finishing hole overlooking Holmes Harbor itself — this is golf the way it's meant to be played.
We're open to the public seven days a week. Whether you're a Whidbey Island local or making the trip from Seattle, Everett, Bellingham, or across the border from British Columbia, we promise a round you won't forget.
