The Golf Club at Newcastle
Profile
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 destinationโitโs a full-sensory experience. With panoramic views stretching from Mt. Rainier to the Olympic Mountains, and the Seattle skyline hovering in the distance, itโs a place where even a tough round feels like a win.
Perched on a former coal mining site, Newcastleโs legacy is layered. What was once rugged working land is now home to two championship courses, a sprawling clubhouse, and a hillside vibe thatโs 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 challengeโand donโt mind a little drama. Long carries, deep bunkers, and sweeping elevation changes define the layout. One minute youโre bombing a drive across a ravine, the next youโre 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 golfersโbut 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 isnโt your typical 19th hole. Itโs 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 Turnberryโs Cafรฉ give you plenty of grab-and-go optionsโideal 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. Itโs where the game feels elevatedโliterally and figuratively. Whether youโre chasing birdies or just looking for a beautiful spot to soak in the view with friends, this course delivers.
Itโs not the cheapest round youโll play in Washington, but it might just be the one you remember the longest.
