Lost Tracks Golf Club
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
Greens in terrible shape.
I understand rough winters or greens fungus, but you need to notify golfers—especially when you’re charging full rates. For that reason, I’ll not be back to golf this course this season. Widgi, Meadow Lakes, and even River’s Edge are in much better condition for similar rates.
Thank you for bringing these issues to our attention. We apologize for the inconvenience you experienced during your visit and will take your feedback into consideration to ensure a more enjoyable experience for all of our guests.

The greens have not been well prepared... Other central oregon courses started grooming way earlier in the year... The ball doesn't roll toward the cup, it hops .. So, so bad...

Just Don't!
You work hard for your money. Please don't waste it on a course that has stopped it's own course maintenance. In my 55 years of golf, these were by far the worst greens I've ever putted. Yes, there was some late winter kill in the Bend area, but other courses' greens survived. The arrogance of charging $109 without any notice to the fee-paying public is astonishing. Forget a friend, I wouldn't recommend this to an enemy.

Save your money
Greens were terrible. OK, bad winter. But to charge premium prices for terrible conditions is unacceptable. Let players know your course is in very bad shape and offer reduced greens fees. Counter staff was rude and arrogant. Thought they were at Pumpkin Ridge. They are not..

sub standard course conditions for premium rates
Have played here before and always liked the course. This year the winter weather was not good to the course. Greens were unplayable on 12 or14 of the holes. Hole 10 and 18 had patches stretching out 20 yards from the green that looked like a cabbage patch mowed down to fairway height. All of this would of been acceptable if we had been notified prior. Instead the guy at the counter looked me square in the eye and told me $109. Then added there would be a $3 fee for using a credit card. Never a word regarding the shape of the course. Charging premium pricing for a sub standard course is not acceptable. On of our players went into the pro shop at the turn and complained about the conditions of the greens and was told "that the first I've heard about that". Judging by the other reviews this year, they have heard about that quite a bit. However, anyone that would charge what they did for what we got is not a honest person. Ha d they told us of the poor conditions and offered a reduced greens fee that would of been acceptable. Save your money
Thank you for your review. We apologize for the poor conditions of the greens that you experienced on your recent visit. We appreciate your feedback and will work to improve our communication with our customers regarding course conditions.
wow. what a dog.
They want $109 to play here. Greens are shaggy, bare dirt patches, slow and unkempt. Poorly maintained fairways and greens. When questioned after the round about the incongruity between the green fees charged and the course conditions, pro shop staff is unconcerned anunapologetic.Used to be a 5 star track. No more. SAD!!!@

Vastly Improved!
The course is in much better shape than previous years. Very personable staff. Most enjoyable.
Horrendous greens
The greens were in horrendous shape. Probably due to rough winter in central OR.
Players should be told ahead of time & green fees reduced until greens in better shape. Rest of course in good shape.
Hi! Thank you so much for leaving us with your feedback. We value our customer experience, so your review is important to us. Please know the current conditions are by no means the standard we strive to achieve. We will continue to work towards a 5-star experience and we hope to see you back!
Worst shape I’ve ever seen it in
My men’s gang plays there every year for the last several. This had the worst greens I’ve ever seen. We paid $89 with a cart for the afternoon price drop at 2pm and it no where near the value I’d expect for that price. Our guys are now talking about playing elsewhere next year. IMO they should have at least told us they were having issues and offered a discount rate. I’ve played plugged and sanded greens that were better. It’s too bad too because we’ve always loved this course.

Rough greens
The weather this past winter has been really hard on the central Oregon golf courses! Lost Tracks is no exception. Beautiful course, views etc but the greens are in really tough shape:(. I’m sure it will be better in a few weeks with this run of warmer weather
See you again soon
Hi, pennyej! 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!
Greens were un put table on 9 of the holes
Course was good but greens were un playable on 9 of the wholes. Way too slow and under repair

Bad Greens
First and last time I will ever play there. They should fire the greens keeper and hire a course marshal.
These were the worst greens I have ever paid good money to play. See the picture below. This is typical for 12 of the 18 greens.
Played other courses with in 5 miles that had good greens.
The pace of play was 5 hours and 15 minutes.
$82 for this is terrible. They should let patrons know the conditions for $82

Disappointed
This is such a great track but the greens are in horrible condition. Most are dying, bumpy and unplayable.
Don’t waste your money. The greens are so bad and yet they are charging full pop.

The course has Lost it’s way.
They were an hour behind schedule. I asked to hop on the back because I was alone, and they said no. I ended up just leaving because there were 20 people ahead of me and I was already an hour late off the tee. They had no carts for anyone, the owner continued lying to people when they were paying. They never once said they were behind to anyone and the only reason I found out was from a cart boy.
I heard they were selling and it really shows with how little they care about their patrons. They’ve lost my business forever. I’ve been going there for almost 10 years and was a member in previous years. It is not the same place at all.

Good value and scenery
Pretty nice spot and decent layout, but the greens are abysmal (at least as of May 2023). Unfortunate, otherwise a pretty nice day out!
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.
Course conditions
These had to be the worst greens I have played in Central Oregon. The staff didn’t even bother to let us know, they just wanted our money. Our annual group won’t be back.

Lost several strokes on the greens
Hard winter and lots of snow. Course will take awhile to get back to normal.
Great layout, poor greens
The green complexes were in horrible shape. Lots of dead patchy/bumpy spots on the greens from snow/ice damage. They probably were not covered over the winter. Some greens were punched but not sanded. Putting was a nightmare.
Golf is getting expensive and it's expected to not know how the greens are before you pay and play them. It's disappointing to see places charging $60+ for greens like this...

Fungus among us
Most of the greens were heavily damaged by what looks like to me a fungus infection. The rest of the course was in ok shape. Interesting course, with a dog leg on most holes.
