Walkable city owned course with good shot variety

Title pretty much sums it up, the Greenback Course is a very walkable course that has enough shot/hole variety to keep the round interesting. Probably the best overall of the PDX city owned tracks.

A Good Public Course

I haven't been here in years. Good to know the course is well maintained and very playable with plenty of challenge for the weekend duffer or the low handicapper.

Great track

The greenback course was in great shape today. Greens were nicely manicured and the different cuts of fringe and rough were done well. Cups were in excellent condition. I was early this morning 7:20 tee time. Played solo. Took 2.5 hours to play 18. Awesome course. Will definitely go again. Always a morning time for me. Afternoons I hear it can get a little slow out there

The BUNKERS

The maintenance of the bunkers is horrible! No sand, weeds growing out of them.

The BUNKERS

Good course except the bunkers are in bad shape, no sand, not maintained, weeds. If golfers are expected to play out of these then the maintenance crew needs to put some effort in.

Good course

This course, as well as many in the area, has got to start maintaining the bunkers and sand traps. If we are now expected to play out of these courses must put the effort into making them playable post pandemic.

Divots

The par 3's are like a war zone, no sand to fix the divots.
I get it because of Covid, but send someone out at least once or twice a week to fill the divots marks
