About Gamble Sands - Sands Course

Gamble Sands Sands Course is one of America's most celebrated public golf courses, a David McLay Kidd links masterpiece carved from sand-based terrain high above the Columbia River near Brewster in north-central Washington. Since opening in 2014, the Sands Course has earned consistent top-100 public course rankings from major golf publications and sparked a golf destination that draws players from across the country. The course plays over rippling fescue fairways with sand waste areas, deep pot bunkers, and virtually no water hazards — pure strategic golf rewarding creative shot-making and ground-game precision. Brewster's arid climate delivers world-class firm, fast conditions from April through October.

History

The Gamble Sands Sands Course opened in 2014, designed by David McLay Kidd — the architect behind Bandon Dunes — on land owned by the Gebbers family apple orchard empire along the Columbia River. The Gebbers family vision to create a world-class public golf destination in an unlikely location succeeded beyond expectations, earning immediate national recognition and golf industry awards.
