The opening hole is a straight-ahead par 4. The fairway is wide and relatively flat so give it a ride! Your approach shot will be to a flat green that is guarded by one bunker to the right front.

Doesn't look like there's a flat lie from tee to green on the 3rd. The fairway rolls left and right the entire way. A huge mound with a very deep bunker guards the front of the green. The top of the flag can barely be seen.

Incredible Course
Would play here again and again. Challenging greens and interesting shots all day long. Having it attached to the McMenamins hotel is fantastic. Bunker bar is an incredible place to grab a beer after the round.

Great Coastal Course
What a great surprise from years ago when this course was a cow pasture. This is a fun, well maintained course that has some easy to very challenging holes. Cost to play seems a bit high at times compared to what you would get at some of the Golfnow courses. The 19th hole is a mcmennanins bar and that makes it a great place to play.
