⛳ Golf, Elevated: The View from Newcastle
Set high above the bustle of the Eastside, The Golf Club at Newcastle is more than just a golf destination—it’s a full-sensory experience. With panoramic views stretching from Mt. Rainier to the Olympic Mountains, and the Seattle skyline hovering in the distance, it’s a place where even a tough round feels like a win.
Perched on a former coal mining site, Newcastle’s legacy is layered. What was once rugged working land is now home to two championship courses, a sprawling clubhouse, and a hillside vibe that’s equal parts refined and relaxed.
🏌️♂️ Two Courses. Two Personalities.
Coal Creek
The flagship course. Designed by Robert E. Cupp and Fred Couples, Coal Creek is built for players who like a challenge—and don’t mind a little drama. Long carries, deep bunkers, and sweeping elevation changes define the layout. One minute you’re bombing a drive across a ravine, the next you’re putting against a skyline that makes you pause your pre-shot routine just to stare.
China Creek
More forgiving, but no pushover. With generous fairways and fewer forced carries, China Creek is a smoother ride for casual golfers—but still offers enough variety to keep things interesting. If Coal Creek is the test, China Creek is the reward.
🍽️ The Post-Round Plan: Stay for the Sunset
The Calcutta Grill isn’t your typical 19th hole. It’s a full restaurant perched at the edge of the hilltop, with a patio that feels custom-designed for golden hour. From brunch to cocktails, the food scene here is built to match the view.
For a quicker bite, the Wooly Toad and Turnberry’s Café give you plenty of grab-and-go options—ideal for mid-round fuel or early tee time coffee.

📝 Why It Belongs in Your Washington Golf Story
Newcastle is what happens when championship golf meets mountain skyline. It’s where the game feels elevated—literally and figuratively. Whether you’re chasing birdies or just looking for a beautiful spot to soak in the view with friends, this course delivers.
It’s not the cheapest round you’ll play in Washington, but it might just be the one you remember the longest.
