Beacon Rock Public Golf

The most scenic course in the Pacific Northwest. A great place to play.

I played 18 holes here in the morning. It was a good challenge. The fairways are pretty narrow on some of the holes so it made it interesting even with some of the shorter distances.

I had a breakfast sandwich at the turn that was good and the staff was very welcoming.

I would recommend Beacon Rock.

Tee off at 9:30, right on time. Never rushed and never waited too long for next shot. Lunch on the turn was a daily special Fish & Chips. Very good!

The People: Very rude staff and locals who go out of their way to make you feel unwelcome.

The Course: Poorly maintained, downed trees covering the course, and the worst putting greens I've ever seen - chewed up w/ longer grass than fairways.

The low price brought me there, but after playing, even $9 was too much for what you get at Beacon Rock. Needless to say, we won't be back!

I went on a rainy day, but it was relaxing and played at my own pace. Gentlemen at the counter was helpful. A good time.

My dad help build the scores back in the 60s/70s??? It is hometown and beloved to me. It used to be in immaculate condition but the last couple of years have gone downhill a bit. Still beautiful nine hole course with the second set of teeth for 18 and it reasonable rate.

We played in early October. Course was dry with no soft areas. We almost had the course to ourselves. The greens don't have true green grass that most courses have. It looks like fescue or rye grass. It was mowed short and made for good putting.

We stopped at the turn and had lunch. Great food and the prices we very reasonable. Staff was great and friendly. My wife is a beginning golfer so this is a good course for her. Can't wait to go back.

grass was long especially around the greens

Awesome 9 -18 hole course. We love the fact that we can get to this golf course in minutes. Beautiful views and easy to book when we just want a quick 9 hole game. Everyone moves at an easy pace and east to walk if that is your preference .

Played Beacon Rock for the first time. A nice course for a relaxed round. It was great for my son who is just learning to play. We were able to play at a relaxed pace. Stay on the beaten path though as we almost drove right over the top of a HUGE wasp nest looking for a golf ball in the rough on #4

A fun place to take your dog along with you for a bit of golf.

Slow to start but played well.

Nice country course in the gorge. Fun to play and then utilize alternate tee boxes on the "back" nine. Greens where slow but it was an great experience and I would go back.

The course was way over watered when we step on the greens there was a lot of water coming up around our feet, the fairways needed cut and the trees made some of the play not very fun.

It is a fun 9 hole course, not long, easy to walk. It is a typical country wooded course, very scenic. The greens need a lot of work. I would play it again.

This course is an awesome value. It's a 9 hole layout but they have a couple holes laid out completely different if you go around twice. The greens could use a little help and are a bit slow. They are a lot better than they were in 2015 though. I will for certain be returning as the value like I said is awesome. If I want the rock hard speedy greens, I've got to pretty much triple the money.

I have played Beacon Rock many times and like going here because it is close to my home and is usually not crowded. Even though it is a relatively short course, I find the overall layout and some of the holes very interesting. Some of them can be challenging due to narrow fairways and/or overhanging trees near the tee box. New management made some improvements last year, but so far this year the course is not in good shape. Several of the greens have bare spots and are in the process of being repaired. Even when they are in good shape, the greens are extremely slow here. I am not sure if this is due to the type of grass seed or the type of mower they use to maintain them. The cart paths are also in pretty rough shape and could use improvement. I am hoping some more improvements this summer because this course has potential and is in a beautiful location.

So the greens had been airated and sanded. Nothing,was mentioned about this being done. Putting on the greens was a joke. I got a great deal but would of liked to know that I'd be putting on the beach before I paid. Some of the greens had huge areas without any grass on them as well overall had day of putting.

We arrived at our 7:16am tee time to find the club house closed. After calling several times to no avail a man drove up from a house on the course and said if we were walking to just go play but we had a cart included in our Golfnow reservation. He proceeded to tell us he couldn't help us then and drove away. Now at 7:45am a neighbor rolled up in his golf cart and we explained the situation. He then drove to get the employee from her house. 10 minutes later she opened the back door of the club house never acknowledging that we were there as we still stood outside the locked front door. Finally she unlocked a cart and drove it up to us as we waited in front of club house. Then shockingly proceeded to badger us for being there. Asking us why we wanted to play there today, telling us this is what we get for a 10 dollar round through Golfnow. Acting like it was our fault she was late and that we shouldn't be there. Our 7:16 tee time was now 8:15 before we teed off. We were made to feel unwelcomed and met with hostility. You can get hot deals through Golfnow at this course but remember those prices are for a reason. This place is a joke from extremely poor customer service, greens that look like fairways and fairways that look like a cow pasture. The cart we received barely ran and was a nightmare to drive around the course. I am so disappointed in this place. We will never play here again and Golfnow should not work with this golf course... DO NOT PLAY HERE!!!

Greens were aerated recently. Course should have been closed it was so bad. There was so much sand on the green putting was a joke. Under normal conditions Beacon Rock is a nice course for the money.
