Gamble Sands is a resort golf destination in Brewster, Washington, built around the work of architect David McLay Kidd. Two 18-hole courses, Gamble Sands and the more recent Scarecrow, are routed over sandy soil and planted with firm fescue turf, producing ground conditions that reward creative shotmaking and careful thought.
Alongside the two full-length layouts, the property includes Quicksands, a 14-hole short course also designed by Kidd. Dining options on site range from The Barn, a casual spot serving barbecue and pizzas, to Danny Boy, which takes a rustic farm-to-table approach.
