Lams Golf Links
Open since 1972, Lam Golf Links (close to Deception Pass in Oak Harbor) is a par three, nine-hole golf course, and there’s even an 18-hole vintage mini-golf course in the mix! This iconic local spot has a fascinating history—the land was bought by Bill Lam back in 1941 and was originally a chicken farm. Eventually, Bill transformed the farm into the golf course—the current clubhouse used to be a chicken coop! You can read the more in-depth version of the story here—it’s definitely worth a read.
Today, people love to drop by the course for a round of golf, host birthday parties, and other gatherings; click here for prices. For updates, follow Lams Golf Links on Facebook and Instagram.
Esteban’s Mexican Restaurant
