The course can be a lot of fun and challenging.

The mix of par 3s and par 4s is nice and the par 3s are challenging. All greens are above average in difficulty. The par 4s do have some demanding tee shots that require accuracy. All in all, not for a novice, but novice players play here and ruin the pace of play. It is a nice walking course too. The course is designed to play in less than 3.5 hours; anything longer in terms of time is too long.

Very well kept fairways and greens. Beautiful scenery

I've golfed this course more than 10 times this season, it is always clean, well maintained, and has friendly staff. Fellow golfers are respectful and most will let you play through if they're slow. (No offense intended) I recommend this as a very challenging and fun short course. I frequently suggest this to friends.

Great Variety of Holes, Plenty of Challenge

We played the Challenge Course as our second 18 of the day, walking all 36 holes. The Challenge course was interesting, fun, and definitely a challenge. The holes presented opportunities as well as penalties and the walk over undulating terrain was surprisingly physical given the relative shortness of the overall yardage. Course is well maintained and the areas off the greens made for difficult shots when balls off the tee went astray. It was a good time all around and at $29 walking in the afternoon, a real value play.

Great value through Golfnow.com!

This course is fun! Although a 'short' course it is not an easy walk as I prefer to do. Most folks would take a cart. The par threes are long and challenging. The par fours are short but you can take out the driver on them to try for a birdie. Wonderful views of Central Oregon on several holes. Play this course if you get the chance!

Excellent course to fine tune your short game!

Views are spectacular. Course is always in excellent condition.
Located in Eagle Crest - a beautiful destination resort. Although it is technically an executive course, it plays longer with 8 par fours.

Named appropriately!

The challenge course is fun and definitely challenging. Even though it is par 3 &4's, don't let that fool you. Many elevation changes. Even the best tee shot can land with the ball above or below your feet.

Definitely a fun course! Highly recommend!
