Muddy and sprinklers going off

Course is in a muddy and rough for multiple tees. Sprinkler came on while playing on a tee that was already a muddy mess. The sprinklers caused a backup. Some of the course is great and challenging, but the few ruined it for me. I can't believe the prices are what they are with the course condition. Hopefully it gets back to that course I always heard people brag about. Disappointed for my 1st time there.

Beautiful Course

The staff was welcoming. The course and setting were outstanding.

The only reason the day wasn’t perfect was of a 9 hole tournament group in front of us. We caught up to their rear group at the 4th hole and half stepped until they parked their carts after the 9th hole. Just unfortunate timing……We flew through the back nine.

Walked

They need a Marshall (and a Starter)

Very slow (an elderly couple in a cart and a walking single were creating a log jam). Locals playing any 18 in any order. Out of towners that couldn't stay in the fairway and/or hitting into group in front of them. May go back when summer crowds are back at home and kids are back in school. Might recommend then.

Course conditions very much improved, particularly greens.

No beverage cart - go inside and group behind assumes your position (really lousy clientele).

Great value course

Good pricing. Course conditions have been on the up and the staff are always friendly. Wish they had a range you could hit all clubs on, not just irons.

A Tale of Two Sides

The front-9 at Lewis River GC is an excellent warmup for the longer, challenging back-9. Having lost some distance in my game, the holes were reachable around the front, but the required length on the back left me with an extra shot to reach several greens. The course is in good shape and a fair test. The scenic landscape is always pleasing.

A Hidden Gem

Hadn't played here in probably 20 years. Had a great time. The greens were faster than they looked and rolled true. Fairways were in good shape but the rough had a lot of bare patches. All the staff raved about the new owners. Less than an hour from Portland. It may well have the best 19th hole in the PDX area.

Great course with bad greens

Played a week night late 9 holes as a two some. Pace of play was great with no backups. The course seemed to be in excellent condition except for the greens. They were very slow and shaggy. I also found myself in a bunker on #7 that was rock hard with no lip. It was a safer play to just putt the ball out. Overall, I would say the course was good for a quick 9, but definitely wouldn’t be my go to for weekly 18 hole rounds because of the green conditions.
