Tucked between Bellevue and Redmond, Tam O'Shanter Golf & Country Club is more than a golf course — it is a private residential community built around a shared love of the game, the outdoors, and the extraordinary Pacific Northwest setting. With sweeping views of Lake Sammamish and the Cascade Mountains, members enjoy an intimate country club experience that prioritizes connection, recreation, and the rare pleasure of living where others only dream of visiting.

A Course That Rewards Intelligence
Designed by renowned Pacific Northwest architect William G. Teufel, ASGCA, the Tam O'Shanter course demands precision and course management over raw power. The layout winds intimately through the residential community, creating an atmosphere rarely found at private clubs of any size.
Five tee options scale from 4,970 to 6,076 yards, ensuring every member — from weekender to low-handicapper — finds a proper challenge. Strategic water hazards and thoughtful bunkering have tested competitive play since the club's founding, including the 1985 Washington State Amateur Championship.

Born Here, Raised Here, Home Here
Tam O'Shanter is home to roughly 500 families — and it is among the most tightly knit residential communities on the Eastside. As a homeowner, you receive deeded membership to the Golf & Country Club, making the fairways, pool, courts, and clubhouse a natural extension of your backyard.
A remarkable portion of homes sell off-market, as children who grew up here return to raise their own families. This generational loyalty speaks to something rare: a community where neighbors become lifelong friends.
