About
Formerly known as Spring Hill Country Club, Albany Golf & Event Center dates back to 1959. Though the name may have changed, the classic design of the course hasn't. The golf course measures to just over 6,500 yards from the back tees. It may not be a lengthy layout but it's a fun round for beginners and advanced golfers alike, which is why it was chosen as the two-time host to the Oregon Open. The golf course was built on some of the country's most fertile land in a temperate location that allows year-round play. Strategically placed bunkers frame the greens and there are water hazards that come into play on a few holes. One of the most difficult holes, the par-3 17th, is a water hole. There is a lake that runs along the entire right side up to the green, which is also bordered by bunkers to the left.

Good challenge
This course is a little bit different as the layout is 3-3's, 3-4's and 3 par 5's on each side. I like it that way tho. It was in very good shape the day we played even tho it had rained the night before. I recommend it highly.
Very well maintained
the course its self is fantastic but the layout for the facilities is a little bit confusing if your a first timer to the course. But all in all you can't go wrong just ask someone where to go once your in the parking lot.
course was is good shape after a week of rain
were received great by the staff .. the course was well worth the price..our foursome had a great time and many laughs at our golf game..cannot wait to play the course again
course in pretty good cond. greens bumpy from plugging in recent weeks
felt it was a good deal at the discounted green fees
The staff is amazing!
The coarse is beautiful and well kept. The staff is very welcoming.
This course is terrific
Really enjoyed our round of golf at the Albany Golf and Event Center. Very well maintained course and is in great shape. Would definitely play again.
Great value and quality course.
The course was in good shape considering the recent rains. Greens need attention but haven't been sanded or aerated yet. Staff is great and very accomodating. Look forward to playing again.
Challenging greens
The greens were manicured to perfection,thus I can't blame missed puts on the greens;just my misreading them.I highly recommend this coarse for a great golfing experience!
Excellent
Albany Golf and Event GC ( we know it by it's former name of Spring Hill) is still a super golf course. For no known reason we had not been there for a couple of years and are quite pleased to have returned .
The course is optically appealing featuring great flora landscaping and aquatic vistas and will only get better as spring weather arrives. The arborist there clearly enjoys her work. The greens are receptive but challenging. A couple of new tee boxes have been built since our last visit adding length to the course. The fairways are well manicured , the rough not too tough, but quite lush and penal near the greens, as it should be, imo.
I honestly can't think of a better place to play golf in the Willamette Valley.
Nice course that provides easy and difficult hole for challenge.
Course is heavily woods with narrow fairways. Fairways are
well maintained and greens are recovering from sanding nicely. Enough water to keep things interesting.
Good course, was better before being bought by a new owner. the maintenance has gone downhill since being opened to the public
I play this course a lot. Good fun and challenging course!
Great value!
Great value and a very enjoyable day on the course. A bucket of balls, a cart, and 18 holes of golf for two for under $45 through Golfnow is a super deal! The course has a set-up one doesn't normally see: equal numbers of par 3s, 4s, and 5s.
Nice course, pretty good shape for early March in Oregon.
This is a great place to play for the money. I paid $25 for 18 holes with a cart and the course was pretty nice. The fairways were firm which is something I havent seen anywhere this time of year in Oregon. The greens were rolling very nice, although they did have some very small dead patches on some of the greens, they werent bad enough to take away from the rating. The course is fairly short, even from the blue tees, however the somewhat tight tree lined fairways and small greens do still give the course moderate difficulty. I plan on going making this course part of my regular rotation of places to play, you just cant beat the price for a quality course.
Easy to walk an well maintained.
Overall the course was in good shape. Pace of play was great, weren't pushed and wasn't waiting on anyone. I have played this course a lot and always enjoy playing here. The staff we had interaction with seemed somewhat dismissive and I got the feeling from them that I was interupting them or bothering them. Once we moved to the driving range and course all was well. The people we met on the course, including the groundskeepers were great. Shutting down equipment while we played by them. Overall satisified with the course, but proshop staff could be better.
Great course to play.
This course is one of the fairest courses to play. With 6-3 Pars, 6-4 pars, and 6-5 pars, hard to find. Trees, water, sand traps all there to challenge you. Good drainage for winter golf.
The course was in terrific condition for this time of year.
Got a wonderful deal on GolfNow. The course was in great condition for February. Staff was friendly and helpful. Grounds were beautiful and course played moderate to challenging.
Great layout, fast and challenging greens.
This is a great course. Well maintained, challenging layout. Greens are really fast despite the wet weather. Tough pin placements make putting fun or frustrating, depending on how you look at it. Not crowded, friendly folks. I'll be there again and again.
easy aquasition,easy signin,no waiting, to tee off,no waiting on the course
checkin was easy,course was in good condition,no waiting to tee off,no waiting on the course..overall great.
good course for the price
Course kinda sloppy in area (wet) some kind of fungus on few of the greens. slow play but for price it was still worth it!
