Green Acres Golf Club
With a name like Green Acres, one arrives at this short par 27 expecting a relaxed atmosphere in a quiet rural setting. And that’Äôs exactly what you find at this picturesque course located in the historic community of Metchosin. Situated on the Straits of Juan de Fuca, Metchosin is one of the oldest farming communities on the Island. From here, you will find some fantastic views of the Olympic Mountains in Washington State. The golf course totals 736 yards over its 9 holes, with the longest hole a moderate 110 yards. However, because most holes are 95 yards or less, a deft touch and excellent swing control with your high irons will be required. Water is in play on many holes. The greens at Green Acres are slightly elevated and hilly, making two putting every hole a challenge. If you’Äôre going to loose strokes, it will most likely be here. For those who would also like to work on their long game, Green Acres has an 18 stall driving range.
