Gamble Sands Unveils the Future of Golf
We are thrilled to introduce the newest addition to Gamble Sands – a brand-new 18-hole course designed by world-renowned golf course architect, David McLay Kidd. This page provides you, our esteemed media, raters, and partners, with a first look at what’s to come and a deeper understanding of Gamble Sands’ storied past and exciting future.
A Rich History of Golf and Hospitality
Located in the heart of Washington’s Columbia River Basin, Gamble Sands has earned its reputation as one of the premier golf destinations in the Pacific Northwest. From the beginning, Gamble Sands was designed to offer a unique, world-class golf experience with stunning views, strategic design, and playability, making it a must-play for golfers worldwide.
Why David McLay Kidd?
Selecting David McLay Kidd as the architect for our newest 18-hole course was an easy choice. His signature design philosophy of creating fun, approachable courses aligns perfectly with the continued vision of Gamble Sands. His work on the Sands Course at Gamble Sands has solidified his status as a trusted partner in shaping the future of our resort. This new course is being built on the very land where Kidd originally envisioned the first course. We are beyond excited to see his original vision come to life, especially now that it is paired with everything he learned from building the first course. With his deep understanding of the landscape and his innovative approach to course design, we have no doubt this new course will be even better—elevated by time, experience, and Kidd’s continued passion for creating unforgettable golfing experiences.
