Nice Course

Course was in good shape but pace of play was a little slow. Tee boxes and greens were well kept.

Great greens

Was a bit disappointed when our golf cart ran out of battery o. The 7 hole. A person did replace with a charged cart. However no apologies or any form of recognition about the inconvenience.
First time this ever happened with all the years of golfing and renting a cart.

Nice course but no driving range

Nice course with nice layout. Sadly no driving range just putting and pitching green.
Nice layout with some demanding holes. Very friendly staff.

Nice to play but…

Overall Rose City is a nice golf course with a nice layout with up and down holes. Unfortunately there was no driving range to warm up, just a putting and pitching green. Staff very friendly and helpful.

Pace of play was poor, due to a very slow foursome in front of us. 4 and a half hours for 18 holes on cart is to much.

Anyway I would play there again.

Good, almost great.

The course is in the best shape it's been in years. Change in management is going ok. Just can't believe they don't have a beverage cart on the course on a weekend 😔

Larger then I expected

I played RC for the first time in many years. It was a pretty drippy and cold day, but I was pleasantly surprised at the conditions. The course drains decently, and while I had mud on my ball all day, I didnt plug once and the ground was relatively firm. The holes are pretty straight forward, not too difficult, or extravagant. The 2 new greens 9/18 i think, were very nice! Looking forward to hitting up this close by course, a nice break from glendo. I played for $9, really cant ever beat that.

Great Muni Course

Fairways lined with trees. Great city course. No formal driving range, so that is the main drawback. We went to a range elsewhere in NE Portland, than drove over to play 18.
