Soap Lake, WA

A ten-acre public golf course through sagebrush, sand, and rocks. No tee times, no staff, no waiting. Bring your own clubs and balls. You're on your own.

On the site where Soap Lake originally wanted to erect the World's Largest Lava Lamp. Sand for "greens" (Be nice, rake them after you putt) and absolutely no grass in the "fairways," which consist of sagebrush and rocks. Lots and lots of rocks. You can use nothing but a 9-iron, and you may want to throw it away after 9 holes, so buy one from a thrift shop.
