Shuksan Golf Club is an 18-hole course set a short drive from downtown Bellingham in Whatcom County, with views of the North Cascades. Each hole plays through its own landscape, and the layout makes use of dramatic elevation changes, with Ten Mile Creek winding through the property and wildlife common along the way. Four sets of tees accommodate a range of playing abilities.
The clubhouse holds a modern fusion bistro serving lunch and dinner, with views over the course. The club also hosts tournaments, business meetings, weddings and other gatherings.
