Description

Gamble Sands is a wide-open, links-style course perched above the Columbia River in Brewster, Washington. Designed by David McLay Kidd, it features massive fairways, firm fescue turf, and panoramic views that stretch for miles. The course rewards creativity and shot-making, with greens that invite bold approaches and strategic play. There’s minimal rough and no trees, allowing the wind and contours to shape the challenge. It’s consistently ranked among the best public courses in the country for its playability, scenery, and pure fun factor.

I’ve had Gamble Sands on my bucket list for a few years now, and I went there with sky-high expectations — not only were they met, they were exceeded. The location alone is top-notch; I love the feeling of being out in the middle of nowhere. I played the Sands Course twice and Scarecrow once, and both offer something unique while still sharing that signature Gamble design. The Sands Course makes golf fun for everyone, while the new Scarecrow course is a bit more demanding — and once it matures over the next few seasons, it’s going to be a true shot-maker’s paradise. The entire facility is world-class, and the staff match that standard. Every single person I interacted with showed exceptional customer service. A special shoutout to Kyle in the pro shop and Albert, the starter on the first tee — both went above and beyond to make my visit memorable. I highly recommend visiting Gamble Sands. I’ll definitely be back in a few years once Scarecrow has had time to mature. Well done, Gamble team!

My son and I have played the Sands course multiple times since it opened. We just played it again as well as the new course Scarecrow. I am happy to say that we had a great round at the Sands course and an even better round at Scarecrow the second day. I have played courses around the world and both courses are in mine and my son's top 5. Thank you for creating such an amazing experience. From the golf to the lodging, food and service Gamble is special and a real gem. See you soon!

Staff was wonderful. Golf and hospitality operations were solid. Food could be elevated to better reflect the resort quality of people and property. Use apples a little more, what tracks better than that?

Awesome customer service in all property locations. I could tell you are a bit understaffed in food and drink service at Danny's Bar & Grill as it took more time then it should to get waited on. Your new Barn area was done well. I liked your design and setup. The restrooms at that location were not serviced enough however. They were a mess at 9am in the morning and in the same condition later in afternoon. The buffet got a 7 out of 10 the night we had the prime rib...that was not good, full of fat, more fat then eatable meat. The room was spectacular. Please put an end table between the chairs on deck to set a glass on, there was no table out there. Front desk staff is always great along with shuttle cart drivers. Wasn't real impressed with your new course, however hoping you have things figured out before booking our next annual trip. Thank you for a great weekend!

The courses are world class. Rooms were immaculate and the staff was fantastic. The only feedback I’d offer would be: - there are many blind shots. Seems a good enhancement would GPS trackers on carts so you can see where the group in front of you is to avoid hitting into them. - Danny Boy restaurant menu and food quality were just OK. Not bad, but didn’t blow our minds. - please build a 3rd 18 hole course!!
