The 9th at Eagle Crest Challenge course. This is a long 120 from the White's and 15 short is way worse than 15 long. Photo submitted by Jemayer230 on 11/26/2012

There are benches on this course for good reason. Photo submitted by Jemayer230 on 10/20/2012

The Par 5 4th hole at Eagle Crest Resort - Ridge Course Photo submitted by Jemayer230 on 10/20/2012
Superb October Day
I have played The Ridge course at Eagle Crest for many years and this particular day was perhaps the finest ever in terms of course condition and weather. Absolutely spectacular in every way. If my entire round of play had only matched I'd have guessed I died and was in the afterlife.
Nice!
Very nice resort-style course., very well maintained.
Nice course at a discount
Course was in pretty good shape. Overall experience was good but would have liked to have more yardage references. Only the blue tees had permanent markers to denote where the distances were measured, so if you are playing whites and the tees aren't in their normal position the yardage will be off. Also none of the sprinklers have yardages so you only have the 100-150-200 spots to go from. I did appreciate the distance to the hazards off the tee on the scorecards.
All around good
I like the challenge course because you have a great variety of shots from all distances, especially wedge shots that really matter. I have always played from the blues, but tried the white tees this time. It was a totally different course, more pars (and luckily some birdies too). The staff and facility at Eagle Crest are always great!
My favorite Eagle Crest Course
Beautiful course - perfect for a 20+ handicapper. Love shooting in the 80's. The greens were very fast.
great test
Course was in amaculate shape thought. It was just basic executive course but far from that quite challeging. And whole lotta fun we walked I would recomend getting power cart this is not flat course alot of up aznd downs. But well worth playing cant wait to get back
Always a Great Choice
I have played here many times while visiting Eagle Crest Resort but this was the first time my wife (a beginning golfer) played with me.
The weather was not great but we headed out earlier than our tee time when there was a break in the clouds. We appreciated the staff's willingness to let us go prior to our reserved time.
The course was in great shape and it plays well for a wide variety of abilities. A couple of suggestions:
1. Consider adding an additional set of tees between the whites and the reds. There was a twosome of guys in front of us playing the whites and they should have been on the reds. Perhaps they would have played a set of tees forward if there was something before the reds. (Some guys don't want to play "Ladies Tees.) Golf courses should never call tee boxes by gender - only color! I think the guys ahead of us would have had more fun playing a more forward set and would have gone faster!
2. We would have benefited from a marshal on the course helping these two guys to speed it up.
Other than that, we had a great time and look forward to playing at Eagle Crest again! There are some great views and lots of deer roaming the course.
Fun and challenging -- as the name says!
Great short course but need to be accurate with distance control. Used most of the clubs in my bag.
Greens were in good shape. We paid $29 per person via Golf Now but they charged us $17.50 per rider in the cart - seemed kind of steep for an executive course.
Great course for the money.
It's a nice and challenging course. The fairways are surrounded by big swells on both sides so if your not hitting fairways it's going to be a rough day.
Great Course
The course has 9 par-3 and 9 par-4 holes. All are beautiful and offer a nice challenge. Great little course!
Excellent condition
This course is great. Challenging but fun. Pace was good. Great mountain views
Too in Love with itself
As with many central Oregon courses this course is fairly in love with itself when it comes to pricing its t times. Thank you Golf now for getting me a reasonably price t time. Also an overall opinion. All golf courses should provide pull or walking carts for free. If people wish to walk then make it more amenable.
Great score = Great review
Shot one of my best rounds here so my review might be biased. The greens were not lightning fast which helped my score.
Like playing with WIllie Nelson
IOW it was like having our own course. THe condition was fabulous. Not ball marks on greens. Fairways like carpet. There were people behind us but as a twosome we got so far ahead that we were all alone.
Cheap, but not worth it.
The course and resort are well known and I have played there many times. For whatever reason, the golf staff has really gone downhill. During play, the front desk guys were trying to get a round in and hit into us. We were behind players with a toddler who were behind others. We waited on every tee box. Then another attendant drove straight down our fairway as we were addressing our tee shots. Needless to say, we finished in the dark and were less than impressed by the staff and fuzzy greens. Employees at upscale resorts would be fired for this behavior.
Definitely worth a visit!
It was a wise decision for my wife and I to head for Redmond for a couple days - I played two courses and loved them both. The Ridge course was a lot of fun - I joined two gentlemen from the area and they helped me with their course knowledge. A great variety of holes for all levels. I will play the course again. It was in excellent shape.
poor treatment for resort course
Resort course without customer service for the price of golf. No bag drop or help with clubs, pay extra for range balls, no help with clubs at end of round. This would be a fine muni type course if the cost was more reasonable. Good design on starting & ending holes with wide open holes in the middle. enjoyed the pace of play & scenery.
Great experience
Reasonably priced, course was in excellent shape, greens were meticulous and staff was friendly.
Tricky greens
Great conditions made for good play but those greens did us in. Very hard to read and very even. Staff and volunteers were welcoming. Would recommend to friends, worth the drive from Bend.
Excellent fairway and fast greens
Mid summer and the fairways and greens were in excellent condition. No weeds all nice green grass and thick
