The Running Y Ranch Golf Course

I've lived an hour away and have missed out on a rare gem in southern Oregon. Almost every hole could be a signature hole.. I could not stop taking pictures! The greens were fast and true. And the course overall was in tournament condition! I can't say I was very impressed with my score.. But no worries... I will redeem myself with one of the many future rounds I will be playing!
All hail the KING!!!

My buddy and I decided to make the trip to Klamath Falls after becoming overly tired of the same old courses in Medford. We couldn't have made a better decision. This course had a lot of different holes. Hole 9 was awesome! The down slope of that fairway is real! My driver was a little shakey all day so I went with a 4 iron and had a 40 yard chip shot left. If you haven't played this Arnold Palmer designed course, I recommend you do so!

It helped that it was perfect weather - sunny with a light breeze - and that I was playing some of my best golf in years, but the course is tremendous. It is not the most difficult course in the world, but it has some fair challenges. (If you want very difficult, play from the Arnold Palmer tees - way, way back.) I could say something good about almost every hole. Two stand out: The ninth hole offers a thrilling downhill tee shot. The tee on the 16th hole offers one of the most beautiful views I have ever seen. On pace of play, we played behind one group that moved promptly and very seldom slowed us down, and no one was behind us. I hope my positive review does not cause lots more people to play.

Beautiful course, with creativity and uniqueness evident on each of the 18 holes. The course winds gently through the terrain utilizing the mountains slopes and altitudes. The greens are well maintained and fast! A wonderful experience which we plan on repeating!

Loved the course and the time spent at Running Y. Spent 3 days in the area and played Running Y twice.

We had an afternoon tee time of 3 pm. Slight breeze made a perfect sunshine mix. Course is in Beautiful condition and with the wildlife to be viewed .makes the golf all the better. Wish we had a couple more days here! We will be back.

Course was great for time of year, staff was one of best we have had freindly and interested in you as golf's herer to play the course. Great time and weather great also. Thanks to all.

Stayed at RunningY for the week with family, got to to play one day and unfortunely the weather wasn't the best. The course was surprisingly in go shape for first week of April, greens were slow but it,s to early to cut and roll. I would love to stay on a golf vacation for 3 or 4 days in the summer.

Very Nice golf course to play in and golf cart is really a must. Huge greens but fast, really hard for a first time play. I think it's comparable to a link style golfing.

Arnold Palmer should be proud of the work he did at Running Y. A good test of ones complete game.

There was a frost delay which is not under the pro Shop Control I called one hour prior to my tee time 8:40 and was told around 10 AM. I called again @ 9 AM and they said 10 AM again. I showed up at 9:50 AM and they had let 5 groups out in front of me and I was a single so I had to play through the five groups which was a real deal killer.

I fet that they could have said show up @ 9:30 and we will get you out first especially since I live in Everett Washington felt as though they really do not care if you have to stand around and wait which is the worst thing in golf it was hard to get into a god tempo when you have to wait, wait wait then hurry hurry hurry!!!!!

Plus they just punched the greens........

Between the friendliness of the staff and the condition of the course and the layout, you couldn't ask for a better golf experience no matter what your handicap.

This course enforces a 4:20 round or faster. When a group several groups ahead of us slowed down the pace of play, one of the course attendants was quickly out to have a word with them. Things moved along smoothly afterwards. Fairways are generally wide enough for marginally good shots but wayward ones will find deep rough. Greens are large and hold good shots. Putting wise they are plenty fast but hold the line well if you find it. Not many options on the menu though and it is mainly a microwave snack bar. Staff for all services were very friendly in keeping with small town USA. I would recommend this course to everyone and plan on playing it again when I come back through this area. Lots to do besides golf, if you like fishing, camping, hiking.

Love the layout. It's challenging but fair. Played 18 holes in just under 3 hours.

Love the course, everything but the price is excellent.

Lying in the foothills of the mountains the course designer has encapsulated the surrounding beauty in every hole. On the 4th hole 6 deer passed about 20 feet away from the tee box as we were preparing to hit the ball. Greens are very challenging to read but still the experience was very enjoyable. The course was one of the main attractions for returning to the area for a weeks stay.

My friends and I traveled about 70 miles to play 18 at Running Y. All of the staff were friendly and helpfull. We were not disappointed at all and will return to play there again.

Can't really say anything bad about it. Wished I played a little better, but that is not the courses fault! It would have been nice if there was a beverage/snack cart. Played the Green Tee's. Probably the right tees for up to a 20 handicapper and can hit it your driver around 230. Ball really seemed to carry.

The course and surrounding resort bring to mind the best of Bend, while being much easier to get to from the I-5 corridor in Southern Oregon. In fact, it is not much more than an hours drive from Medford. Course conditions compare favorably to the best in Southern Oregon, and the layout is straight forward and fair without lacking in interest and creativiity. I would love to play this course again and again, but I didn't feel unnecessarily disadvantaged playing it for the first time. The nicest surprise as I played the round: surveying the course from the fairways on certain holes (17!) gave me some of same sense of adventure I got playing Bandon Dunes the first time. Dinner at the lodge afterward was also just right, great service in a very special environment. I am looking forward to coming back and staying longer next time.

Had to wait to tee off until assigned tee time even thought there was no one on the course and storm was coming in. Flying, biting bugs on every hole. Most overrated course we have ever played on in 30+ years of golf. Must have a great PR firm.
