Pace of play soul crushing

Picture this, it’s a Weds morning, great weather, fairly inexpensive round thanks to golfnow, no one on the first tee box. But, once you make it to other second hole, foursome groups in carts one after the other playing terrible slow and BAD, stalling play. Finished nine even playing with two balls and chipping around and it still took 2.5 hours. Called it quits. Did I mention no one would let me play through?

Oregon coast golf at its finest

First time at Florence golf links and I was welcomed kindly by staff, the amenities and course lay out were phenomenal. The course played firm and responsive and has a great mix of obstacles. Will definitely play it again.

Unplayable when wet and soggy

Very poor conditions but I can’t place the blame entirely on Redtail given our extremely wet weather lately. And, it’s a muni course after all. Balls in the fairway become plugged or unfindable. If you’re in the rough that’s at least 2 additional strokes tapped on. Very frustrating to say the least. The only benefit of having bad conditions is no one else really wants to play so we were able to finish 18 in just under four hours.

Fairways are rough and putting green is rougher

Played during an unfortunate condition of the course where the fairways weren’t cut and just long grass and the greens were caked in sand and thick over brown grass. Better to just chip for your putt. Staff are friendly and the course layout itself is very simple. But, I wouldn’t recommend playing here if you’re of intermediate or better playing ability.

Friendliest staff, great course layout.

Played in a pretty ideal situation in that we were first off the tee, slightly delayed due to frost. Staff kept everyone informed. We play pretty quick and with no one in front of us cruises through a round in about 3 hours.

Not for the long hitters

This course since it’s renovation played very nicely. It’s a great short game iron only course for longer hitters, but not recommend for a full 18 experience. Very narrow in some spots so accuracy is needed. The greens played slow with some distress on them. Clubhouse and snack bar are great and staff were very friendly. Overall I don’t think I’ll be trekking out here to play. But, recommended for beginners, short hitters and folks that live close by.

Spring time golf amidst COVID-19

Beautiful scenery with the gardens nearby. Course conditions today were fine, greens were pretty shaggy which made for slower putts. Overall a fun time though.

A $10 course at best for families and beginners.

I understand the course was greatly damaged during the ice storm in the winter but had assumed by messaging on the website that the course was in shape for all 18 holes. Wanted some iron practice so decided to play. Instead, we were told as we arrived we could only play the front nine and if were to play the 18 which we paid $20 for, we’d play the front again.

Also didn’t realize we’d be playing on sanded tee boxes and aerated greens in horrible shape. Practically putting in fairway. For $20? Never again.

Thank you for reviewing the course. Let us first start by apologizing for the poor experience you had during your visit. The current condition is by no means the standard we strive to achieve, and we are working towards getting things up to par. We appreciate your patience as we repair the course's significant damage from the winter ice storm. Thank you for playing Lake Oswego Golf Course. We hope to see you again soon.

Always a good time at chehalem. Challenging and long holes from the tips. Accuracy a must on some. Great condition from tee to green.

Historical course on the decline.

Played here for several years but slowly noticing the decline in course.
Front nine has some fantastic holes and a few holes near Reed college and the Rhododendron gardens are great but there are some holes you’ll want to play through quickly near the train tracks and industrial area lined with trash, vagrants and bad characters. Witnessed a fight on the street adjacent to the tee box while waiting to tee off on hole 15 immediately followed by two shady vehicles approaching us in reverse then speeding off. Not sure I’ll be back for sometime.

Best of westside Portland metro golf

Always one of my favorites. Only 10-15 minutes away from home. I play fairly fast so enjoy playing with others who keep pace of play. The reserve tends to attract decent golfers. South course bunkers are nice and fluffy even on wet days, good drainage and fast greens.

Better than usual fall season

Fall is in the air, which today seemed to mean way better pace of play and great conditions. Surprisingly quiet for a Sunday afternoon round. Our group of guys tend to play quick but we never had to wait to tee off for too long. Good round for redtail today.

The best on the west side

I always enjoy playing the reserve. Pace of play today was great despite having groups in front. Tend to get better golfers here so étiquette is a must. Fairways, greens in great condition. Looking forward to my next round here.

Weekend Warriors/Bro Golf and Patience

Played a 5 1/2 hour round stuck behind newcomers to the game a bro’s getting too rowdy and drunk on the course. Tested our groups patience today. I’m thankful for the course marshals who allowed us to play the front again to avoid the group with a guy taking 6-7 practice swings then chunks the ball. Course conditions were dry but okay, good greens, soft bunkers.

If you’re an avid golfer, stay away from redtail during weekends peak times or go and play the reserve or pumpkin. It’ll save you a headache.

Fun practice course for short game, awkward lies.

Great quick course to play. Holes are very short for long hitters and not very challenging for mid to low handicappers. Course conditions are okay. Very firm, dry fairways, thick slow greens. Friendly staff and very considerate players letting better players play through. Was able to finish 18 with cart in well under three hours.

Great layout, honest critique staff could do better.

I love the layout of the course and convenient being only 10 minutes away from home.

But, I’ve always experienced not so friendly staff trying to rush you along. No eye contact quite honestly rude at times. The kids camp was happening with several dozen kids and staff wearing no mask or improperly wearing mask, zero social distancing. Not sure I’ll be back for awhile.

Great condition. Always fun to play.

I usually play here every other week at most once a week. Great course layout and the greens seem to always be in great condition.

Can be challenging for beginners but fun to play if you like to shape shots, just try not to hit any houses. Caution on the 6th if you hook as a righty, ball will go right into a busy road.

Fast Play

Must’ve been the players on the course keeping good pace but we managed to play 18 walking in just about 4 hours on a busy Saturday afternoon. Appreciated the marshalls checking in and kindly recommending a pace of play. Even stopped for a snack at the turn around. Good challenge from the blues. Greens in good shape.
