Beacon Rock Public Golf

I had a tee time of 7:56. The pro shop didn't open till 8AM. Good thing I didn't take the 7:44 tee time I would of waited 45 minutes to get going. I did like the course. Play in the morning before the winds start

Gas carts were the worst I've had on any course! The guy in the clubhouse was not pleasant. The course had cheesy holes. None of our foursome plan to go back.

I got a great tee time deal on Golfnow.com. I wanted to find a fun course because I brought my 8 year old son. He had a great time! He had a lot more success than he has had at any other course. I didn't notice at first, but there isn't too many bunkers. Didn't lose too many balls. If a shot got away from you, it seemed we were always able to find our ball. The greens were in very good shape. They were very soft, mostly due to the fact we started shortly after the sprinklers were on. As the round went on they firmed up some. I also noticed there wasn't too many ball divots on the greens, which is awesome! (I did my part to fix ones other lazy golfers didn't fix.) I've been to other expensive courses in the PDX area that were riddled with ball marks. All in all, a very good experience and will definitely come play again!

Great place to play
Play early as it can get hot
Greens are a little wet in the morning due to watering the greens

The course is hard as a rock. Tee boxes are not maintained nor alternating tee marker locations while new seed is developed. Greens are very spungy and very slow. Course seems to be lacking a commitment to quality. # unfair holes with unnecessary tree limb obstacles / hazards

Fun course. Nice and relaxing. Staff was great and very friendly.

My family really enjoyed the course. Good value and relaxed atmosphere we great for younger golfers, but the course is fun for more experienced golfers also.

This is family owned type place without a big budget so don't expect too much but the location and scenery are excellent. It is also a good value and good for beginners. It is a bit of a drive to get to and there are many nice 18 hole courses near by like Carson hot springs. If you prefer to play nine this is a great course to play. I'm not a big fan of nine hole courses but if it was all the time I had and lived close by it would be a good choice.

The weather was beautiful. The scenery is very nice. No houses. Greens are slow and average care for a public course. Very good pace of play. Twosome finished in a little over 3 hours. Great value on golf now. Rate came with a hot dog and soda. Had a very pleasant afternoon. Had a cart but it is a nice walk.

We love playing this course. The course was in very good condition for dry summer months. Very friendly and laid back atmosphere. Mid course restrooms do need some work. Overall the course is challenging and a great value. Well worth the little extra drive up the scenic Columbia River gourge.

Nice nine hole course. To play 18 you will continue around and play from a tee box a bit further back which mixes it up nicely. So when you arrive for your tee time, probably a group will be making the turn and there could be two or more groups waiting to tee off playing 1 and 10 especially when the men's group is playing. So plan to play on a week day. Views of the mountains were lovely. Breeze coming from the gorge was nice, as it was a hot day.
Big hitters are a bit scary, easy for them to hit a neighboring fairway.

several tees and greens are protected by trees leaving narrow openings. you are rewarded for accuracy. great location for a golf course.

mark and his staff are wonderful----not crowded,fun course. great setting----and a good value for your dollar

Great course in excellent shape, Very fun to play. Often a nice breeze to keep you comfortable. Very friendly staff and good food.

If I ever had a day where I wanted to walk off the course it was today.
Found out when we got there that there was a tournament going on and we would have to wait to tee off. Note I was going to tee off at 156 pm and we sat and waited until 220pm. One of the golf attendance was walking around and he stopped by one group and gave them free carts for waiting and I was standing with my son and he just walk right by me. So we started off at 1 in front of everyone by the time we got to 3 they jumped people in front of us and we waited 45 mins to tee off of 3.. Wow!! It took us 3 1/2 hrs to play 9 holes. I went to the club house and they gave me a rain check but I don't think I will go back.

Beacon Rock is a jewel in the columbia river gorge. Nicely maintained course with very friendly staff. Will play again soon.

We were a bit early so decided to try the club's Sunday morning buffet ($9/ person). The buffet had the usual tasty items such as waffles, fresh fruit, pastires, bacon, sausage, scrambled eggs etc. The staff that took care of the tee time check-ins also took care of the buffet and table clean-up. They did a great job at both! When we arrived at Beacon Rock, one of the staff members brought our reserved carts to the parking lot where we parked. A big plus in my book! {:>) This course is about 25 miles from Vancouver, WA and the drive up the Gorge is magnificant on a sunny day. We highly recommend playing this course!

Great location for a 9 hole course with some challenging holes due to length and / or layout. Conditions for November were good.

Had not played in long time. Pleasantly surprised. Nice course, fair amount of difficultly. Workers doing good job to maintain course. Will play again

These guys take pride in their course, they are cleaning out some overgrown areas and it really opens up the course. It is always fun out there, neat views and a course for everyone. We will be playing here again.
