Went to play the Par 3 course but the greens had just been aerated so we went to the driving range instead and then at the course restaurant. The driving range is your normal driving range with one fantastic addition - space heaters!! We didnt need them on our visit but cant wait to go back on a cold and rainy day and take advantage. Dinner at the restaurant was great. We ate in an outdoor tented area (where there were also space heaters). Food was good - burgers and Caesar salad - typical golf club fare. Fun times!

We were very excited to play Willows as we heard they had made many improvements with the new owner. We pulled into the lot and the facilities were amazing. Proshop staff was friendly at first but then became incredibly rude when we showed up with 3 instead of the four we booked. One of our friends has severe asthma and cant play in this weather. Besides that we had a great experience (just wish the layout had more diversity) and really enjoyed the improvements on the maintenance side.

Very nice round this morning. It was busy at 8 am but pace of play was fine. Great to see parents with kids, couples having fun. Folks kindly let us play through even though we were fine working on our game. Greens are in great condition. Tees are a bit rough

Great course, staff has always been friendly. Course is well maintained for as much play it gets. Par 3 needs work though. Facilities and food is also up to par.

Willows Run offers excellent classes for beginners. Jim and Davey, in particular, are outstanding instructors. They lay out the fundamentals in a clear and easy-to-understand way. I learned a lot and had a lot of fun in their group. Great intro to golf!

Played the par three today and couldnt have been more disappointed, probably the worse condition course I have ever played. Tee boxes are dirt with no grass,3 to 4 inches of grass clippings throughout the course, divots all over the greens from previous players, and foliage is not kept up. If you going to have a par 3 course next to two great championship courses then it should be up to par with them and not a goat track.

Good track, nice greens. Walkable, not much slope.

I was incredibly disappointed with the overall condition of the course and the corresponding cost. Almost all of the tee boxes are missing large portions of grass, down to dirt and mostly uneven. This includes the first tee where it is down to dirt! They also dont appear to have been mowed for over a week. Greens in good shape. Literally large chunks of sod missing from fairways throughout the opening nine at Talons. Mounds of dirt left around #16 has been there for weeks if not longer. Just a total lack of maintenance and care for the course.I hadnt played here for a year or so and wont be going back anytime soon. $60 to walk a course that is less maintained than my back yard is unfortunate.

Tuesdays half off at the driving range is an unbeatable deal ($4 for a large bucket). Great chipping area and putting green. I recommend if youre looking for a good practice facility.

Love this little executive 9. Very pretty, well maintained, and at a reasonable price. It does get a bit backed up on sunny days, but I suppose its to be expected.

Review №11

Wildly overpriced for the course conditions! Tee boxes have almost no grass left on em, fairways are terrible and the greens are bumpy. Rounds are very slow... but thats because demand is high, so I guess they dont feel like they have to spend money on maintenance as long as people are willing to pay for a mediocre at best product. Cant blame em I guess.

I golfed the Eagles Talon course September 30th, 2020. This course was not maintained at all! Grass clumps everywhere, tee to green. The fairways were like many public courses rough...and the rough was like US Open. So if you miss the fairway the ball would dissappear. The traps werent raked and the grass around the traps was so long that it hung into the traps, it was unbelievable. I dont set the bar very high for public courses, but they missed it. Save your money, dont go! Theyve had all summer to do maintenance and they wasted it.

If you like a more natural mini golf experience this place is for you. Lots of shade a nd trees. Nice setting near larger course. My family really enjoys it. Currently taking reservations by phone for Rainbow Run!

Starter Fred and marshal a little too angry. When you go to enjoy yourself with friends the last thing you want is to be accosted by an over zealous starter and marshal. They need to chill, they work at a public golf course not a boot camp.

If you love watching golf you will love this course! Because that is what you will spend the majority of your time here doing. Waiting and watching the group ahead of you play. Management here seems to be totally fine with overloading this course for a few extra greens fees. Even the course marshall seemed to think it is normal having a group on the green, a group waiting on the fairway and a group waiting on the tee box on every hole. Used to weekend golf in the king county area but this was exceptionally bad. The care said we were 40 mins behind pace and again the marshall said thsi was normal. 4 hours into the round we called it quits on the 14th hole. Not going back. Good luck to the rest of you.

We played this morning I enjoyed the Par 3 layout, etc the greens were perfect but the course needs to have the cut grass vachumed up. The grass is 4 deep & the old, brown, cut grass is not supposed to be there. Also send a boy around to pick up the old beer cans,,

Best minigolf in greater Seattle Bellevue area. Beautifully landscaped and well maintained. Each hole is named after a Washington state landmark. Lots of shade so perfect for a summer outing. Be sure to hit your ball into the stream on the first hole, youll find out why afterwards.

Review №38

I know its winter, and we paid winter rates, but the course today was not the tidy, well groomed course that I think of when I think of playing at Willows. There were branches on most of the fairways and mud on almost all of the cart paths; I would like to think there would be more of an effort to at least tidy up for those that brave the cold to play. Will come back in the spring/summer to see if the conditions improve.

Customer service within a well maintained golf course, offers dry towels on wet, drizzling rain days. Wiped off water on cart seat. At $80.00 for a ride on cart, and round of golf, this did not meet up, like other public courses do well in.

I played 5/12 and i was embarrassed that I invited my friends out here. You couldn’t pay me to play it again. The conditions were horrible. Bumpy greens. Tee boxes were not mowed. They are cutting the fairways and blowing the grass into the uncut 6” rough. I would not recommend playing it right now until they put more work into the course.

Review №48

Coyete Creek is in bad shape - even the Marshall told us they put the money towards the other course. Tees are beat up, greens had ball marks all over them, fairways looked beat up and if you land in a bunker use a old club because its rocks and sand. Starter had a bad attitude. Pace of play is slow - when I asked the marshall if its playing slow his answer was YUP - way to do you job. Best part of Coyete is the practice putting green, they maintained that. Nothing good at willows.

Review №51

We played today and expected the course to be in good condition after the closure but were surprised to find it in terrible shape. It turns out we found out that the ownership had no employees during the closure and did no maintenance on the course other than an occasional mow. The greens were Lumpy the rough was deep with lots of grass clippings over the top so youd lose your ball. And we paid the same price we would have when the course was in regular condition.

The Positives!!! My first time at the facility 07-11-2020. Great staff, everyone I encountered was professional and pleasant. I enjoyed playing the eagles talon course, great fairways, generous width. The greens, hard and fast, lots of slope and grain, study your putt thoroughly, course knowledge will help you navigate better, lots of divots on each green I played, come on People!!!! Golf is about ethics and integrity, repair you ball marks,,, Really? Unbelievable. I am sure the experience would be better the second time around. I never met a golf Course I did not like.The negatives,,, the MENs room was a mess, TP & paper towels on the floor and just unkept, no seat gaskets in any of the stalls, Really? During the Covid epidemic you would think management would be proactive and assign someone to the restrooms every hour or so. Common surfaces dirty, wipe down the doors and commonly touched surfaces occasionally!All of the general public participants were CDC & Washington state compliant wearing a mask, and practicing social distancing, great job Washington!!Finally,, the cart paths are horrid!!!! I mean HORRID!!!!!I literally bit through my tongue and drew blood while driving the golf cart on the cart path,,, I hit a 10 to 12 pot hole (There ARE SEVERAL) while driving away from the third green On The Cart Path !!!!. This literally ruined my round!!! I bled from my mouth for at least the next 5-holes. This pot hole epidemic on the cart path is pure negligence!! Shame on you Facilities Maintenance and Management. The egregious negligence of the cart path continues throughout the Eagle Talons course. Come On Willows Run Golf Complex !! How hard is it to roll out there with some crushed stone and FILL IN THE POT HOLES??? Someone from Facilities and or Management needs to get OTA and gets out onto the cart paths to do their jobs!!!! Pure negligence !!! This issue did not happen overnight. Hopefully someone in management reads this and corrects the issue before another paying customer has the same unpleasant-regrettable experience. Paying customers, be mindful of the cart paths and have enjoy the outing. George Hagan.

Such a great time its hard to determine the best part. We were paired with a fun pair of guys ( Rick, one of your marshals, and Pat). They were so fun to play along side. Your course is in great shape and challenging. The wait staff was accommodating and saved my life with ice water readily available. I will be back if Rick and Pat can play again.

“Winter play” I think I paid over $60 with a cart to play the mud pit they got down there in the valley.Tee boxes are a mud pit, the greens are bumpy and inconsistent. The sand traps are under repair. Course is just soaked and they can’t get the water outve there fast enough.The fairways are standing water in every shot. The only rolling the ball was doing was off the cart path.I knew what I was going to be getting into, but I was still surprised how the course was.This “complex” seemingly worse every year I come to it. More then likely my last time, March golf is not easy in WA; but I wouldn’t play this for $30 with a cart right now. Get a box of balls and range balls and it’s $90 in March. That’s simply insane around here.

Ive been very happy with this place, they put in so much effort to keep the course(s) in great condition, even going so far as covering all the greens over night in the winter. The staff is very very kind and helpful, food is great, service is great. Ive been a longtime member and will continue to give them my business. Thanks Willows Run staff!

Review №64

Do not play here until they have time to get the courses in better shape. They clearly did not do much maintenance during the quarantine and scrambled to open on the 5th. The grass was ridiculously long on every surface, from green to fairway to rough, with unmowed patches all over the course- even on the fairways. It is absolutely shameful that Willows opened its course after the quarantine at full price and with no disclosure about conditions. Charging full price they should give a free sleeve of balls with purchase of a greens fee because the grass is so long one can literally lose a ball from driving the ball down the fairwayThis was surely a cash grab by the business trying to generate revenue despite the course being in dog sh*t condition. Shame on Willows management

This review os for the par 3 Heron Links course.My wife is brand new to golf and was excited to try this par 3 course. We made reservations and were welcomed when we arrived. After paying the $35.60 for two (a bargain really) we were told the greens had just been treated. Well the greens were completely worthless. This was really a worst case scenario for my total beginner wife. There are no real fairways to speak of. Some greens had a small extension toward the tee like and apron but not as nice. The grass between the tees and the greens otherwise is around 4 tall. Finding your ball if you dont hit the green is a challenge. We used orange balls after the first ball hunt. The bunkers are just weed filled holes. I laughed when I saw a rake in one. Should have left a heavy garden rake and maybe we could have cleaned it up a bit.The course is laid out nicely but beware of the many swamp and tall grass areas. Ive played a couple of other par 3s and this one is much more like a miniature version of a tough regular course. If you dont hit straight you will be losing a lot of balls! We actually left with more balls than we came with because the grass was so deep people couldnt find those balls that didnt hit the green from the tee shot. All in all the layout is nice and its challenging for a par 3.Its a good deal at $18 a person and occupied us for an hour and a half. We may try it again once the greens are repaired but as is you cant put straight for 2 feet.

Willows run is a great, family and beginner friendly course. Ive been taking lessons here for about 3 months and theyve been great. My fiancé is a member and frequently golfs on both of the 18 hole courses and really enjoys it. If you are looking for somewhere super fancy and impeccably maintained, this probably isnt the option for you. If you are looking to get out to a good course, with good prices, and a more casual atmosphere, Id highly recommend it.

This is the beautiful 9th hole. This for 3 offers really great challenges and is truly a wonderful experience. The staff is great also. They just need to make sure that the grounds crew gives the golfers the Room and distance they need and not circle around the green at times when they could move to other holes that are not being played

This was such a fun mini golf course. We went on Fathers Day, so it was a bit crowded, but once you got going on the course it was pretty smooth. The holes are challenging enough without being frustrating, and the short cuts to try to get close to the hole are fun to find. Would totally recommend, maybe not on Fathers Day, but it was a fun outing with the family.

I was at the Rainbow Run mini-golf course with a company team outing. It took 2 hours for 7 of us to complete 18 holes. I think there was one par 5, four par 4, and the rest par 3. The course is really fun with some tricky holes and several secrets. The quality is great. A couple rough-worn spots in the turf, but for the most part is very well maintained. Staff was super nice. Well worth the money!
