Evergreen Golf Course

Frequently Asked Questions

When's the absolute best time to experience Evergreen's famous back nine, especially the creek holes?

You'll want to aim for late spring or early fall at Evergreen. The creek that winds through holes 12-15 is at its most picturesque then, and the humidity is lower, making those challenging approach shots much more enjoyable. Avoid mid-summer if you can, as the heat can really drain your focus on those crucial finishing holes.

How challenging is Evergreen Golf Course for a mid-handicapper, particularly with its elevation changes?

Evergreen offers a fair test, but don't underestimate the elevation changes, especially on the front nine. We recommend taking an extra club on uphill shots to the greens, like the par-3 4th, and definitely consider a cart to conserve energy for the back nine's strategic demands. It's a course that rewards smart play over brute force.

What's the real value proposition at Evergreen, and are there any specific deals we should look for?

Evergreen delivers solid value, especially if you can snag a twilight rate after 3 PM - it's a fantastic way to experience the course without the peak-time premium. While it's not the cheapest round in the state, the course conditions and unique layout, particularly the well-maintained greens, justify the price. Factor in about $80-120 for a prime weekend round, including a cart.

What's the one hole at Evergreen that truly defines the course, and how should we play it?

You absolutely have to talk about the par-5 18th at Evergreen; it's a fantastic risk-reward finisher. With water guarding the green on your second or third shot, we advise playing it as a three-shot hole unless you're feeling incredibly confident with a long iron or hybrid. Don't let a heroic finish ruin an otherwise great round.

After a round at Evergreen, what's the best way to unwind or grab a bite at the clubhouse?

Head straight to the 19th Hole Bar & Grill; it's got a great view overlooking the 18th green and a surprisingly good craft beer selection. We always grab their signature 'Evergreen Burger' - it's the perfect post-round fuel and a great spot to relive your best shots (and worst misses). It's casual, friendly, and exactly what you want after 18 holes.
