The Inland Northwest has beautiful public greens and nationally recognized courses; here are a bunch to try

It’s no secret to those of us living in the area, but Spokane is a bit of a hidden gem when it comes to golf. With about 15 courses within 25 miles of the city center, sandbaggers and wanna-be pros alike can get in some dedicated time at the course any day of the week.

CIRCLING RAVEN GOLF CLUB

Just a short drive away in Worley, Circling Raven Golf Course is pristine, with plenty of accolades attesting to its greatness. Voted #1 Golf Course in Idaho by Golfweek Magazine in 2024 and making Golf Digest’s list of America’s Greatest Courses in 2021, the 7,000-plus-yard, championship-level course is home to wide-open, sloping fairways and hole designs that allow scratch golfers to get creative with their shots in order to conquer the course.

WANDERMERE GOLF COURSE

13700 N. Wandermere Road, wandermere.com

Situated in North Spokane alongside the Little Spokane River, Wandermere Golf Course offers character, natural beauty and a welcoming atmosphere to all who take on the course. Featuring only two par-5 holes, the course isn’t the longest in town by any means, but that makes it a great course for players of all ages and skill levels to really put their game to the test.
