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.

Overpriced for what you don’t get

This course is not that nice, too wet for play and Basically has everything shut Down because of Covid.

Great course, older gentleman rather rude

We booked the round through the tee off app and got a great deal. However, the older shorter gentleman in the pro shop, presumably the manager was very upset we got such a great deal on the round. Therefore, he made us pay an extra $50 for my wife to ride around in the cart who wasn’t playing. I expected to pay for her seat, but he made us pay for a full extra golf cart and was not very kind about the situation. The course was in excellent condition and a fun round. However, if you’re gonna be rude about booking the round through an app at a discount, maybe don’t put the teetimes on there.

Great Course

In nice condition. Most fairways are wide. Some water hazards. Hole 10 has two greens, with shorter one on less behind a big tree. You may not be able to see the flag from the tee. Would definitely play it again.

Country Club conditions

This was my 1st time playing McNary CC and it was a real treat. You will use every club in your bag and tale what the course gives you. There is a great mix of long, short, and dogleg. The conditions are excellent. I was also very lucky to be matched up with a member, and Marine. Steve O. It was a great day that I will definitely love to repeat.

Course is in good condition… For a course that is nestled amongst houses, it plays well and is always a pleasure to play.
