Great atmosphere!!!!! Took the family there. Had dinner while watching others play the course. Then got my round in. Fun little course with great baskets. Needs tee signs and actual tee boxes. Some holes are hard to determine where the tee boxes are. As everyone else has said, there are a lot of people around so sometime it can be tough to play. Other then that, its a great course. Well done!!!!

Learned to play on this course. As noted in other reviews, the pros include great beer, imaginative fairways, a couple of risk/reward choices, and a well maintained lawn. Great course to learn/practice your basics. Cons are limited essentially to a limited amount of space, crowds, and danger of having to dodge errant shots.

This course is a great idea, but the people that stand around on the green or let there kids play on the baskets, is annoying. The tee pads are not marked worth a damn. If you're lucky there is just a ... show more ›

This course is a great idea, but the people that stand around on the green or let there kids play on the baskets, is annoying. The tee pads are not marked worth a damn. If you're lucky there is just a worn spot in the grass or a rock to mark them. The saving grace of this course is the cleanliness and the layout for the limited area. Oh and the fact that they serve alcohol basically on the tee pad.

Pros:

Execeptionally manicured
Imaginative holes
Great place to work on putting and short game
Good food and beverage available on site

Cons:
Very crowded with non-golfers on nice days - especially warm summer evenings and weekends - to the point of being unplayable.
Natural teepads (although most holes are short enough that no run up is needed)
No signs (maps are available at front desk)

This will never be confused with a world class course, but enjoy it for what it is: A great place to huk with firends. Bring your buddies, take your shoes off, grab a beer, and have some fun!

Pros: Well maintained and a clean Pitch N' Putt course.
Baskets are in good shape.
Hole #10 is fun as you toss off of a balcony.
Course flows decently for the small space offered.
Course maps/score cards provided at front desk.

Cons: Hole lengths are short offering only 2 over 100 feet.
Lack of Tee boxes being only marked by stones.
Majority of the holes run parallel to each other.
Baskets 1,3,5,6 and 8 are close to streets/traffic.
Holes 6,7,8 and 9 cross walking paths.

Other Thoughts: Alcohol is allowed making it fun if you drink while you play. The lodge is beautiful both inside and out.
Close to Orchard Park and Hagg Lake/Sain Scoggins offering 3 playable courses in a day. If planning to play here it is recommended to call ahead of time in order to make sure no events are taking place. All in all its a quick spot to play if in the area of Forest Grove.
