About
McNary Golf Club is located on the site that once was the homestead of Charles McNary (1874-1944), prominent Oregon Congressman, lawyer, and vice-presidential running mate of Wendell Willkie. Since he was an ardent golfer, it is appropriate that this course was named in his honor at its opening in 1962. The course was developed by Jim Sill who wanted to build an enjoyable course for the average golfer. Initially, the McNary home was used as the clubhouse. Today, modern clubhouse facilities, including the well known McNary Restaurant & Lounge, overlook the course. All the necessary amenities are available. The golf course features lush fairways, spacious greens, and hazards that provide a challenge for all golfers. Claggett Creek comes into play on holes 1, 9, 10, and 18. The challenge and beauty of the course has also been augmented with several small lakes with fountains.

Good course conditions
Good course conditions, been here many times and it was up to its normal solid maintained standards. Unfortunately my game sharp by any means, but it was an enjoyable day in terms of the course conditions.
good course
course was in very good shape, staff are extremely helpful
Excellent course
Nice affordable course tucked in to a housing community with an ample variety of shots to challenge a golfer. Does seem tight at times but wide open at others. Good course to practice precision golf. Greens were the biggest challenge of the course. Plenty of slopes, tiers and subtle breaks to make putting a real challenge. Overall a great course, competitively priced, and a joy to play.
Overall great club/course
I’m a member here and love the course, events, and the staff. Membership here is such a great value. Far less than most other clubs/courses. You also can join Courthouse fitness for a fraction of the full cost. A great partnership with Willow Lake Driving range also provides members with a practice area and balls as part of membership. There are also several membership options that will fit any budget.
Many do not realize McNary is also open to the public.
The staff is always super friendly and welcoming.
The golf course is challenging with a fair number of bunkers, ponds/lakes, creeks, and out of bounds around the houses. But the fairways and rough areas on the holes with houses are generously wide. The course is in fantastic shape with the greens rolling great.
A beautiful day at McNary
Great weather, great course, extremely helpful staff
will play again
the coarse was in great shape , the only problem was i was confused by the orange flags on side of the fairways , found out later by some young people they were playing foot golf . kinda cool
The Houses Are an Optical Illusion
This course is not really as "narrow" as others make it out to be. Sure there are a lot of holes lined with houses on both sides, but most of those holes provide plenty of room from side to side for errant tee shots to still land in play. The yardage overall is also fairly short. This allowed me to keep my driver in the bag in favor of shorter more accurate clubs.
The greens run true and they normally have ability to hold iron/wedge shots better, but they seemed to be firmer than I had remembered. Keep this in mind when hitting out of the rough and other areas where you will not be able to generate a lot of spin.
All in all, I really enjoy playing McNary Golf Club and I highly recommend this course to anyone in the area. They also have pretty good food in the restaurant as well (especially happy hour).
VERY WELL MANAGED
COURSE WAS IN GREAT SHAPE, WELL GROOMED, BUNKERS AND GREENS WELL MAINTAINED. STAFF WAS FRIENDLY AND ACCOMODATING. WILL PLAY HERE AGAIN.
Unwelcome
We felt unwelcome from the guy who checked us in at the pro shop, his name is Larry. Don't know what his problem was but he made us feel like pond scum and he talked about us outside with other customers saying, we have to get rid of this golf now crowd. Next time I go, I won't be so nice.
Good course -- good value
I've played McNary G.C. a number of times over the years, and always enjoy an outing there. The only negative is that there are homes along the course; occasionally in danger of my errant tee shots! Not really, though, as you'd really have to be pretty far off to actually hit a house. Still, it can be done!
Great Value!
Played on a cloudy winter day after lots of rain. Course was in remarkable condition for as wet as it had been. Greens were excellent and fairly quick. Caught a shower for a couple of holes but it cleared off. Staff was very friendly and carts are pretty new.
McNary on the Dale
Play this course often, love everything about it. Sometimes they are a little slow to mow the fairways if there has been rain in the past few days. Great place to play and really great place to meet for dinner afterwards.
good course
the greens arent very consistant.im a member at this course and i like it and ive played here adleast 200 times.i golf for my high school called mckay.i think this course has good fairways but the greens are really the only problem and i give them 3 stars for the greens.sometimes there slow and sometimes there fast. and they usually keep the practice green in good condition.but other than the greens the course has deesent sand,they are not very fluffy but there not terrible.they usually keep the rough in an easy condition to get out of so its ok if you go into the rough.
Course in great shape,greens Quite fast
I Played with 3 others, of about the same ability as i enjoyed. the Round was very enjoyable.
