What are the top public golf courses in Oregon?
It depends who you ask. In the case of GolfPass' annual Golfers Choice ranking lists, you are the expert, along with thousands of your fellow golfers.
We compile our annual Golfers' Choice lists by analyzing the ratings and reviews submitted by members of our community - golfers like you - throughout the previous year. We use GolfPass' Ratings Index logic that weights newer reviews and combine it with a course's subcategory averages. Courses must offer public access and have received at least two reviews in 2023 to be eligible for this year's list. If you want to play any of these courses, hover your browser over the course photo and if tee times are available, you can click to book directly.

The 20 best public golf courses in Oregon
-
Pronghorn Club - Jack Nicklaus Signature Course
Bend, OregonPublic/ResortGreen fee: $99
What they're saying: "5th time playing Pronghorn. Always a great layout and course. Winter conditions were expected. Semi-punched fairways and slow greens. Fairways were browned due to no watering. Overall, to play somewhere that is dry and in resort level conditions for under $100, it’s a great purchase. Played 18 holes in 2 hr 45 minutes using cart (cart path only). I could have been quicker if I just walked. Cart GPS monitors (are) always very helpful." - u314162667387 -
The Reserve Vineyards & Golf Club - North Course
Aloha, OregonSemi-PrivateGreen fee: $79
What they're saying: "It is always enjoyable playing here. The condition was top notch. Course is still dry after some rainy days. Green rolls true. Ball has some rolls on fairway. The staffs are very friendly. This is (a) must-play golf course in Oregon." - xqf0805 -
Meadow Lakes Golf Course
Green fee: $58
What they're saying: "The course is in great shape. Only knock is they have temporary tee boxes in places which is understandable in the winter but when the ground thaws it’s like teeing off in the swamp. I hate hitting off a mat but a mat would be way better than the swamp." - bjsoper76 -
The Reserve Vineyards & Golf Club - South Course
Aloha, OregonSemi-PrivateGreen fee: $69
What they're saying: "First of all, if I can rewrite my last review, I would give a 5 stars too. I was taking shortcuts last time so feels a lot wetter then it is. In fact, this is one of the driest course in Portland area in the rainy season. The condition of both courses here at The Reserves are compatible to American top 100 ( I have played 20 of them)." - xqf0805 -
Crooked River Ranch Golf
Green fee: $45
What they're saying: "Beautifully distractive scenery. Well maintained for late December! Greens pretty smooth and cleared. Bunker sand graded nicely and dry. First and second cuts well defined." - geodude -
Eagle Point Golf Course
Green fee: $40
What they're saying: "I could play this course once a week and not tire of it. Lots of character. Back 9 always plays a little harder for me. Very walkable course. 7 iron off hole 10 tee isn’t a bad idea. 16 a fun hole. Will play again soon." - spendawgsaballa -
Pumpkin Ridge Golf Club - Ghost Creek Course
North Plains, OregonPublicGreen fee: $95
What they're saying: "I was in town from Michigan visiting my son. He hasn't played in 10 years and I brought him my previous set of clubs. Got very lucky with the weather and looked forward to playing with him. I am glad I picked Ghost Creek to play, it was a great experience. It's a beautifully designed course and I couldn't believe what great shape it was in for November! We had a great day and one that I'll always remember as I don't know when I'll have a chance to play with him again. If I do I won't hesitate in choosing to play Ghost Creek again. Thanks for the experience!" - u510840708 -
Peninsula Golf & Racquet Club

Salishan Golf Links
Green fee: $119
What they're saying: "I don't usually review things; but, this course is worthy!. The pace was great, holes fun yet somewhat challenging (not much water). The course hasn't seen the rain normally expected so the fairways were a little brown here and there. Greens were quite good." - DoroadoOne -

East at Glendoveer Golf Course

What they're saying: "Big shout out to the new worker who has been keeping this course looking like a gem 💎 (He's) very nice and (a) respectful dude! Really appreciate his hard work. Please consider making him the new manager of the course. He does fantastic work. I would continue to play at this course because of how well kept the place is. Again very nice person and considerate to guests. Highly recommend promoting him. He is a younger gentleman who just started there recently. I apologize for not remembering his name right now but had a conversation with him on how well the course looks. 😀 Sincerely Austin Barnett, (a) happy guest. 😊 Thank you!!" - u314162661125 -

Heron Lakes Golf Club - Greenback Course
Portland, OregonPublic/MunicipalGreen fee: $30
What they're saying: "Course was in good shape given the very wet month prior. Greens were even and fast, fairways in pretty good shape, not too soggy. Bunkers were hard packed with some standing water, but that’s to be expected given the time of year and amount of rain. Played 18 (holes) in 3:10." - hartgreen
