Great round at Redtail

I haven't been to Redtail in years. Over the past few years I heard nothing but terrible things. It is a local course for me and I figured I'd go play a round and see how it is for myself. First, I must say the layout is awesome, it has a lot of potential to be a great course. I would say the course conditions were above average for summer. This course does get a lot of play. Greens in playable shape, fairways green, bunkers were fluffy. The rough is obvious hard pan dried grass for watering reasons. My buddies and I kept joking around and asking ourselves, what's wrong with Redtail? Absolutely nothing! If you can keep your ball in play it's great, and the challenge is there. You wouldn't think you were in the city areas until you see Target and Dutch Bros. I have had a few slow rounds in the past, but we managed to play 18 in about 4 hours. Which was smooth pace for our group. They have a great practice facility also. I would definitely recommend this course. It's worth checking out for yourself.

Forest Hills Golf Course

Great layout, slow play.

Forest Hills is a great layout and a very fun course. I have played it multiple times in the past few months. The greens are in good shape and roll quickly. They have a few different greens to putt and chip on which makes it nice for how busy this course stays. Service was friendly and the clubhouse is nice. However, my biggest complaint is that they have no starter or marshalls keeping up the pace of play. While I would agree that the first hole is a drivable par 4, they should still have someone out there properly maintaining groups and tee time. I had a 108 tee time and didn't swing until 140. We were told it was running behind, but I have experienced this multiple times as of late. For how nice this course is represented they should really space out the times by a few minutes more or get someone out on the course helping maintain the proper pace of play. A 4 hour and 45 minute pace of play for 18 is pretty unacceptable. I will return again, but I will choose a few other local courses over Forest Hills that don't repeatedly have running behind tee times and slow pace of play.

The Grove

I purchased a Hot Deal advertised online, it was a good value for the course. I was told that me and my playing partner would be playing with another group who paid online. When my partner and I were on the tee box at time, nobody showed to play? We decided to hit our drives and play. We kept up with the group in front of us, and it ended up being a good round. The back to back par 3's can slow the course down a bit. It was overall a good round. Fairways are dry and greens run slow. I would recommend this course to any golfer for the price.

The Great Blue

It was nice being able to get out mid week and play this course. The course is in good shape for the amount of play it gets. Greens and tee boxes we good, some bunkers could use a little love, but overall it was great. I'm really only there to golf, but some of the staff inside needs an attitude adjustment. When you reply with please and thank you's, then get no response but an inconvenient look it's bad for business. If you don't enjoy golf or course hospitality then find a different job. I'm sure everyone complains about it, but the parking is poor for the amount of traffic they get. I would still recommend both of the courses Heron Lakes offers for any golfer, each offering different styles of layout makes it a nice place to play golf at.

Amazing conditions! Fast greens!

Great course, very fun layout! Amazing conditions especially for the time of year. This course is playable all year round. Our group was able to drive power carts on the whole course, but a few fairways that were in progress of being manicured to golfing perfection. Greens roll very true and fast. I would highly recommend McNary for any golf outing.

Great layout, Decent conditions, Few complaints.

This course has a great layout! Greens rolled well for this time of year. However, they definitely need to step it up in maintaining the rest of the course. Lots of debris, downed tree limbs, mud chunks in fairways and near greens, some of the traps had hardly any sand in them. There is also a miniature homeless camp on the back 9, so you might be heckled off #14. While I understand this course gets a lot if play and is going under new management the small things they can do to make it a better golf experience. I would recommend this course to others, but definitely won't be going back until late spring or summer to allow them to get the rest of the course in shape. Fingers crossed that Kemper Sports Management gets this course back to the potential it has once had in earlier years.

Great Course!

Great course, fast greens. This course stays in great shape all year round. The layout is very fun. A little bit of a walk in between some holes through the neighborhood, but the course definitely makes up for that with character and overall conditions. Highly recommended.

Unique and Challenging

This is a very unique golf course that is a lot of fun. Many different elevation changes, with some forced carries, makes this course pretty demanding off most tee shots. All types of hazards come into play at Chehalem Glenn. This course is is pretty well maintained with smooth rolling greens. The staff was friendly, however the pace of play could be better. It isn't an easy track with many types of shots that you need to focus in of you want to get a lower score. It would be nice for a little consideration for us walking or pushing carts, not to feel like the four some behind you isn't on your back because they are in carts. I would recommend this course, but bring a few extra balls and play forward tees equal to your skill level to keep everyone happy.

Great City Golf Course

Eastmoreland is one of the best Portland city courses to play. The greens are true and roll pretty quickly. Every type of hazard comes into play. The front is longer with a few dog legs, fairly straightforward. Lush fairways lined with large trees. This course really shows a lot of character on the back 9, with some elevated tee shots as well as some demanding carries. Eastmoreland offers a lot of very unique holes to smash that ball around with some great sights to see. Chipping and putting area is good size, range is slightly smaller due to old architecture design. There is a lot to appreciate at this old city course. I would highly recommend Eastmoreland to any golfer.

Very Enjoyable Round at Oregon City GC

I had a very enjoyable experience at this course during back to back golf outings. The staff was friendly and quick to check our group in. Putting and chipping area is good, however the range is very small. *Irons only. This course plays quickly in the AM hours. Lot's of course character, all hazards come into play, dry rough, water, sand, and pine trees. Oregon City has some very demanding driver shots if playing back, with lots of course undulations. My only real complaint, is that most tee boxes are very uneven. Focusing on where you tee your ball is important. The greens are in very good condition and roll very true. I would definitely recommend this course to any golfer.

Pretty Decent Nine

Course is always in pretty good shape. The man working the counter in the morning seemed grumpy and was very short with me apon checking in @ 7:10AM. He let us know that we were paired with another two some that was no where in sight. Course was wide open, but was told to wait before teeing off. Out of nowhere a few other people showed up for the time behind ours. We then were quickly rushed off the box with a crowd of people hanging out waiting to get out on the course. I wish I could say better things about this course, I have had a lot of better experiences there. Course layout is ok, all hazards come into play. Greens are crowned, spongy, and on the slower side. I would still recommend this course to players, especially looking for a cheaper deal. Maybe you will get a nice person behind the counter?

Best Nine on the Westside

Claremont is a well maintained nine hole course. A little on the spendy side, but nonetheless they keep it in great shape. Greens always seem to be rolling smoothly. The course can play a little slow in the AM hours due to seniors men's and women's clubs. All hazards come into play here, and can be a little narrow in some areas with houses surrounding. Claremont is for all levels of skill, with many different distances to tee off from. This nine hole course is a must check out if your an avid golfer or just looking for a fun nine hole round of golf.
