Description

Overview

When Rainier Golf & Country Club Opened it's first 9 hole "golfing grounds" on September 15, 1920, it was considered one of the finest "out-in-the-country golf links" in the Seattle Area. Originally the course consisted of what is now our back nine and there was no clubhouse. Bob Collins, the designer, builder, and first Golf Professional at Rainier, was quoted in the August 29, 1920 Post Intelligencer as having lined up 198 prepaid members and a long list of golfers awaiting his "golf instructional work".

Rainier, the second oldest private golf club in Seattle, has matured and evolved into one of the most imaginative and demanding tests of golf in the Northwest. The course is a shotmaker's delight; it rewards power, finesse, and most importantly, accuracy.

The members have committed themselves to improving, maintaining and updating all aspects of the facilities. This commitment to improvement is being made in the conent of a Long Range Plan, approved annually by the members. The pride of the members in the facilities is evident in their ongoing support of these programs.

Rainier is located an easy fifteen minute drive from downtown Seattle and offers convenient access to SeaTac International airport and all south, east and west suburbs.

The members and staff invite you and your family to consider joining Rainier Golf and Country Club.
