About
Perfect Central Oregon rolling terrain fashioned into beautiful golf holes by designer Brian Whitcomb. With 7000 yards of breathtaking views and challenging golf shots Lost Tracks Golf Club defines the word golf.
While Lost Tracks Golf Club is located near the city of Bend, it has the feeling of quiet seclusion. The golf course is bordered by national forest land and carved out of a stand of Ponderosa and high desert pine trees with lava rock outcroppings, dotted with sparkling lakes, and seaside sand filled bunkers. Laid out on a softly rolling terrain the old style design, without the long walks between greens and tees, invite the golfer to walk the meticulously groomed and maintained fairways.
Lost Tracks design philosophy did not include a "signature hole" consideration. Many players may consider the 141-yard 16th hole a par 3 island green, with an old railroad dining car for a bridge, to be exactly that. However, with so many gorgeous holes to choose from, we will leave that up to you. Have fun!

Hole 11 @ Lost Tracks Photo submitted by odysseycustom on 05/27/2014
One of our favorites
Course was in great condition. Not sure why it was so open but we finished 18 holes in 3:40. It was amazing. Seems like they're a little short staffed, but it did not hinder our enjoyment one bit.
Great course. First timers will be surprised
Course is a challenging layout with a lot of blind shots. If it’s your first time or you haven’t played there for 10 years, you kick yourself after you see what you could have done or where you should have gone. It’s in great shape though, and you’re rewarded for good approach shots.. Because you can’t see where you’re going, you’re left with many long iron shots, but the greens are soft enough to hold them. Any amount of course info you can get before playing will help.
FUN AND ENJOYABLE
I’ve probably played here twenty to thirty times over a couple of decades.. Every time I play it, without exception, I say “that was a lot of fun “ I love it. An absolute “MUST PLAY “ when in Central Oregon
3 hour round on a Sunday
7:15 a.m. start had the place almost to ourselves. Wife and I cruised. 2nd time here, so had a couple of directional challenges of the tee. GPS on the cart was bare bones., but useful. Course was in pretty good shape, greens were great ( minus the multiple ball marks) $20 a seat for cart is a bit steeper than what I am used to. Tgat 3 hour round included fishing out a few balls, because we were catching the 2 in front of us.
Lost it
Used to be a fun course in decent condition now is in horrible shape and no one is keeping the course up. We will not be back again waste of time to putt on greens that feel like fringes
Budget Golf, Great for Moderate Length Hitters
The course was in rough conditions especially on the front nine (likely gets more play). Greens and tee boxes were needing serious help. This course would be great for the 230-250 off the tee player. If you drive it 250+ I would suggest playing the black tees or you will be stuck hitting iron/hybrid on many of the holes.
Course layout: numerous dog legs (mostly left to right). You need to know where to aim off the tee as there are many blind landing zones/ dog legs. A range finder doesn't help much off the tee however very helpful for your approach shots. The pro shop sells a yardage book for $2 which I found helpful to know how far to X bunker or turn. The book did help, but wasn't super accurate since the tees boxes do not have stones for starting points.
The 16th par 3 with the train for a bridge is a fun experience, people put old bag tags and gloves within the cart as a "remember me" token.
Overall, I am torn on this course being worth it for the money. I am leaning towards finding a deal at the nicer resort courses like Pronghorn / Sunriver mainly for better course conditions and variety of holes.
We appreciate you taking the time to review the course and rate us. We are going to pass on your feedback to the team. Thanks for visiting Lost Tracks Golf Club, and we hope to see you again in the future.
Shocked
I REALLY hope this is not a sign of things to come. Lost Tracks has always been a favorite course... with a great layout, nature setting w/ few houses, mountain views!
So disapointing to see how rough the course is coming out of a cool wet spring. Bare/brown patches all over the course, yellow flowers growing in fairway, rocks in traps. It looks like a course beat up at the end of a long season, not the start.
Lost Tracks is going down a slippery road, please bring it back to the amazing course it is!!
Hi! Thank you so much for leaving us with your feedback. We value our customer experience, so your review is important to us. We will make note and we hope to see you back at Lost Tracks Golf Club!
Thank you for reviewing the course. Let us first start by apologizing for the poor experience you had during your visit. The current condition is by no means the standard we strive to achieve and are working diligently to improve the course. Thank you for playing and we hope to see you again soon.
