Cancellations made between 7 days to within 48 hours of the starting time will incur a fee equal to 50% of the green fee for each cancelled player. Cancellations made inside of 48 hours are subject to the full green fee for all cancelled players, or any short-shows on the day of play.

Chambers Bay is a walking-only course, designed to traverse our beautiful 249-acre site. With challenging terrain, completing 18 holes provides a physical test, earning us recognition as one of the Toughest Walks in Golf. If 18 holes feels daunting, we offer 9-hole rounds and reduced-routing social events.

Caddies: The use of a caddie can greatly enhance your golf experience at Chambers Bay. Please ensure that you reserve a caddie(s) for your group a minimum of 48 hours in advance of your starting time reservation.

Carts: Push and pull carts are available on-site and included with your green fee. Personal push and pull carts are also allowed.

While weather conditions can be unpredictable, we generally continue play unless hazardous conditions arise. If weather prevents a golfer from starting, a rain check will be issued for the value of the round, which can be used for a future booking.

Starting Play: Once a round begins, no rain check is issued. If dangerous conditions (e.g., lightning, snow) force course closure, a full rain check will be given.

The standard pace of play at Chambers Bay is between 4:45 and 5 hours. Players teeing off within the first hour are expected to finish in under 4:45 and stay immediately behind the group ahead. If this pace is challenging, we can assist in rescheduling.

Two practice centers are available:

Warm-Up Range (located near the 1st/10th tee) includes a full driving range and putting green.
