Golf in Lakewood

Lakewood is a Pierce County city home of the western portion of Joint Base Lewis-McChord, one of the largest Army posts in the United States. The military installation's massive presence creates a substantial military community that defines much of Lakewood's character, and the city's working-class residential population serves both the military and civilian economies. The Steilacoom Lake and the surrounding Pierce County landscape create the South Puget Sound community setting for golf serving the diverse military and civilian community. The broader Washington community's investment in recreational infrastructure reflects the Pacific Northwest's commitment to outdoor quality of life, and the local golf course serves the full range of the state's population — professional, working, military, and agricultural — in a landscape of genuine natural distinction.
