Tag: Cedars at Dungeness

Total loss

Two weeks ago today, September 16, the Cedars at Dungeness golf course started its day with a devastating fire. This building, located on a hillside at the east side of the property, went up in flames. The building is described as a workshop and storage building. Nobody was hurt but the loss was considerable.

The building was used for golf cart storage and an estimated 50 carts were lost in the blaze. This included rental carts, two beverage carts, and a number of personal carts. As you can see, it was a total loss. The course has been able to borrow carts from two other local golf courses and rent from a third. The equipment lost was insured but this is a tough time to lose so much equipment as September is a busy month.

Burger fix

Every now and then I crave a good, char-broiled hamburger. I haven’t scoured Sequim for the perfect burger, but have been happy with the ones I’ve found at Stymie’s, the bar and grill at the Cedars at Dungeness Golf Course. I tried something new yesterday: this one came topped with blue cheese. And instead of the standard virtuous salad I opted for the sweet potato fries. I left happy.

Here’s the front of the building. The golf course is beyond the back and Stymie’s, at the back, looks onto the course. To the right is one of the Jamestown S’Klallam Tribe’s many totem poles. I posted other photos of this spot here, earlier this month.

Best of the Peninsula – Golf

Cedars at Dungeness was named the best local golf course in last year’s “Best of the Peninsula” poll by the Peninsula Daily News.

I’m not a golfer, the but course looks well groomed and has beautiful views. A pro shop serves the golfer’s needs. There’s a bar and grill, Stymie’s, that serves good food all day and into the evening, and a restaurant, Cedars at Dungeness, for a more upscale dining experience.


The golf course and restaurants are another business venture of the Jamestown S’Klallam Tribe. So, of course, there is a totem pole. This one includes – what else? – a golf club. And a golfer friend points out golfing references to eagles and birdies carved into the pole.
