Golf in Bellingham

Bellingham is the Whatcom County seat and the last major city before the Canadian border, home of Western Washington University and the cultural and commercial center of the northwestern corner of Washington. The Bellingham Bay waterfront, the Chuckanut Range's dramatic sandstone formations to the south, and the agricultural Whatcom County lowlands create a distinctive Pacific Northwest city. The university's presence creates a year-round intellectual and creative culture, and the city's proximity to the Mount Baker ski area and the San Juan Islands creates an outdoor recreation culture where golf is one of many activities serving the community. The community's golf culture sits within the Washington context that makes the Pacific Northwest one of America's most desirable regions — a combination of natural beauty, economic opportunity, and the outdoor recreation access that draws residents from across the country to build their lives here.
