The Mook at Alderbrook

This course is a little off the beaten track but easy to get to. The Restaurant is closed on Mondays so there was no food to be had. The golf shop has, water, soda, Gatorade and some beers. The driving range is sufficient for getting warmed up but you will be hitting off of mats. But they are in good shape.

The course is very walkable except for two holes where you have a fairly healthy climb. At 6071 yards from the Blue tees you might think the course is on the short side but there are some healthy par 4's at over 400 yards. The lay out is a bit funky and in my opinion could use a layout change, the 15th hole is not a golf hole and should be done away with. Conditions were average to good for the area. The greens had been top dressed the day we played but they rolled true but a little on the slow side. We had some hole locations that were very tough and should not be placed in those areas of the green. Couldn't keep the ball on the green if the putt was missed. A hole location should never be placed at the edge of a slope. My guess is these hole locations were due to the top dressing of the greens.

This course is good for the advanced player as well as beginners, women, kids...a good all around course. I would play here again if I were in the area. The price was very reasonable.

Will go back to play again. Tight course with a few interesting holes.

Course description states it's par 69 but it's actually par 71. And one of the par four holes requires a monster drive to get into position for the approach. Plenty long and very well maintained, interesting greens. Walkable with understanding that two holes require a steep accent. Get a power cart if you are not in decent physical condition. Overall a great course for the money and I recommended that golfers of any skill level give it a try.

enjoyed the course. not a long hitter so it was challenging for me. greens were excellent, fun course to play and i would recommend it to people going to the coast.

My family was visiting the beach for the weekend so I booked a tee time here. I booked a deal through golfnow. A cart was not included but they gave me a cart anyways without additional charge, which was pretty awesome.

The course is fun, with some unique holes. The greens rolled smooth and the fairways were in nice condition. A lot of subtle breaks on the green that made things tricky but fun. The uphill 15th is nearly impossible if you don't hit the ball high. The tee shot on 16 is really great as you are elevated and hit down a huge hill.

I would recommend a cart, especially for the back nine. There are some steep hills that would be tiring to lug a bag up and down.

nice layout, challenging, but fair. hole locations tough to figure out without signage

Course was in great condition. Tight fairways and postage stamp greens challenging course from tee box to pin.

Got there at noon, for early May a beautifull sunny day.
Tree lined tough little course, spray your ball left like I did on the first nine and your in trouble..Back nine we
all played better wind started to blow hitting club solid a must. Some very interesting holes..all in all for being on the oregon coast nice course nice time, would recommend..

I played with some slow people which made the round in the 5 hour range. The place didn't have hardly anyone playing on it. The restaurant was closed on a Sunday of all things Greens were so slow you could not get any kind of feel for them. There is still a lot of really wet spots all over the course. I did get some good practice in with the new irons..

Bring extra balls if you don't do well with water hazards and deep brush.
They have 2 holes one on front 9 and one on back 9 that have great views and tee shots that seem like 500 yard drives.

I found a $10 tee time for this course (normally 40-50/round). The fairways and greens were well manicured. The course plays fairly tight, so more conservative shots lead to better scoring. The greens are HUGE and have some good slope to them. On and off showers throughout the round added a little difficulty, slowed down the ball, and made it stick to the green when using wedges.
Driving range was in decent shape, and I was able to swing off the grass instead of driving mats. The proshop was well equipped, and the restaurant had great "golf" food.
I really enjoyed my time, and will definitely play this course again for the $10.

I booked my tee time on Golf Now for 1pm on a Saturday, and arrived about 30 minutes early to check-in. I had left my phone in the car with my clubs while I went to check-in, but I was told they could not check me in without my Golf Now confirmation number (I've booked 50+ tee times through golf now and have never once been asked for this, so I assume it pops right up on their computer screen...). So I went back and got my phone from the car. Slightly annoying, but not a huge deal.

I had paid in full for 2 golfers, however my friend couldn't make it, so it ended up being just me. That being said, I wasn't worried about a refund, but I did ask if I could get a power cart since I'd be the only one playing and had paid for 2 (didn't seem like a crazy request..)

This is when things really went downhill. I was (condescendingly) told how much people 'normally pay' to play at this course on the weekends, and then was told "you probably only paid; what?; $10-12 dollars per person for your round today? I think you already got a pretty good deal, so no, it'd be $20 for a cart."

I figured I may have to pay for a cart, and that was fine, but the way in which I was treated (like some kind of second class golfer) was a reason I may not be a returning customer.

I have been wanting to play this course since arriving in the area 2 weeks ago. Finally took advantage of the great weather and price. With all I saved I decided to rent a cart, but it is easily walkable except for the big hill on #15. I would have liked to play with someone else but the course was very quiet. I used my Sonocaddie GPS, but the course has changed recently so not all holes were accurate. I had plated this course over 10 years ago when it was barely better than a cow pasture, this was a big improvement.
I look forward to playing again, hopefully with my husband who is fishing for salmon every day.

It had rained hard the day before we played so the course was some what wet makeing the rough very difficult. We played at 1:00 PM on a sunny day yet
the greens were very wet and in need of moweing. Same for the tee boxes. Very nice club house but they need to maintain the course better. I will likely not play again.

The weather did not cooperate, so the course was a little wet. However, it was still fun to play. The people in the club house and restaurant were very friendly. We would definitely play again.

I got lucky and played the last nice day of the summer. The only thing I can critique them on is that they seem to over water. It has been one of the warmest and driest summers on record but there were alot of mushy areas and even had a ball plug near the second green. I also played 18 alone and finished in 3 hrs. This course is worth the money even if you don't get the hot rate.

Good course except for bumpy ride on the back nine.

This is an old timey course. 50+ years old. It isn't like on TV! Narrow, undulating fairways, small greens. This is perfectly acceptable as long as you know this. You're at 68ft above sea level, in marine air, so the course plays about 300-400yds longer than what the card says. EASILY! Tricky holes. Carry this, stop on that, you get the point.. One hole on back is UNPLAYABLE! A par 3. You will know it when you see it. Played it 4 times now ( I"m 71 yrs old and a 7 hdcp) but iy plays sooo much longer than the yardage. Fun.....

Playing the course was fun especially number 15!! Course had great conditions despite the rain.

Alderbrook is fantastic. I'm not a great golfer but I'm an avid and dedicated one. I will definitely drive back to the beach to play this course. It is a beautiful setting and is beautifully maintained. Dan in the pro shop is friendly and knowledgeable. My friend and loved the course despite the very challenging greens. They are like PGA greens they are perfect green monsters. And then there is the 15th hole. That's all I'm saying but conserve your energy. We will definitely play again before the rains arrive! Do yourself a favor, enjoy a drive to Tillamook and play a round at Alderbrook.
