The Classic is located a few miles southeast of Tacoma in Spanaway, within a residential community with homes bordering the exterior holes.

The layout is a classic Northwest parkland design with fairways lined by fir trees over level land. There's a generous amount of contoured sand bunkers along the fairways and greenside, and multiple water features in play. There are tees from 4,474 to 6,681 yards; the White tees play to 5,866 yards, 67.8/122, course/slope ratings, designed by Bill Overdorf.
