Soap Lake, Washington - Rugged Terrain Golf Course

Lava Links is a ten acre, 9-hole, par 3, golf course located in the middle of Soap Lake, two blocks off of state highway 17. What makes the course so unique is that play is through, sagebrush, sand and desert vegetation. Grass is in short supply. Out-croppings of basalt provide an "x" factor. The greens are not greens -- they are grays (sand). You may tee up any shot other than a putt. For clubs, a wedge (nine iron) and putter are all that is needed. Some loaner clubs and balls are available.

The course is unattended You are on your own. Fees are not collected. Donations are requested. The course was created and mainted by volunteers. Dress for comfort -- Lava Links is the un-country club golf course. [Burr Beckwith, 04/27/2008]

[RA: While there are other "rugged terrain" golf courses, we wonder if many are "free." Soap Lake is the same town with a dream of erecting a giant Lava Lamp for tourism.]
