Connect With a Local Real Estate Specialist

Washington National Golf Club is a public, daily-fee course in Auburn designed by John Fought and opened in 2000, notable as the home course of the University of Washington's men's and women's golf teams and as a past host of the 2002 NCAA Women's Golf Championship. As a public facility, it would not normally clear this site's qualification bar on its own -- but the club offers a genuine, narrowly defined bundled tier: a 'Resident Membership' priced at $204/month (12-month minimum, then month-to-month) that is explicitly restricted to residents of the adjacent Diamond Ridge Estates neighborhood, with an additional-family-member add-on at $110/month.

That is a real membership-tied-to-a-specific-development mechanic, even though it sits on top of an otherwise public golf operation -- the qualifying basis here is residential integration through that Resident Membership tier, not a private-club barrier to entry. A separate, newer development nearby, The Reserve at Washington National (by Garrette Custom Homes), is marketed around proximity to the course, but this research found no confirmation that its homeowners qualify for the same Diamond Ridge Estates-restricted Resident Membership -- treat these as two distinct developments with different, and only partly confirmed, golf-access mechanics.

Golf & Course

John Fought's par-72 design opened in 2000 and has hosted the 2002 NCAA Women's Golf Championship, the 2003 NCAA Men's Western Regional, a 2003 US Open Sectional Qualifier, and the 2003 ESPN Golf Challenge, alongside its ongoing role as the University of Washington golf teams' home course.
