Short
Short but technical. You have to know the course to score well.
Just love this place
Great condition and stunning views and the holes are so different it in my opion is the best! We travel over a hour to play here at least twice a year and it never dissapoint us..
good course and great setting
This is a fun course with some challenging holes. facilities and staff are great
Challenging but not forgiving
Scenery great layout somewhat strange. Need a power cart especially on back nine. Was difficult to find. Nice amenities. Have to say I'd not play again found it frustrating.
Love the course but 5 some teed off at 7am on Sat ??
We golf 4-5 times a year driving from Vancouver, Wa.
Love the course and the views.
Management needs to re-think allowing a five some of regulars to start the day on a Saturday. We were told by a local that happens a lot. Good olde Boys want more coins in the pot so they play a five some. Not good if you are a two some behind them. To make it worse they never asked if we want to play through. We had to skip the 10th hole to get around them. They had not concerns that they were holding us up. Must be desperate for those quarters they are playing for.
Thanks for responding Tyson
We will be back. We really enjoy the course.
Hi Keithgolf33,
My name is Tyson Jacobs I am the General Manager at Indian Creek, thank you for bringing this to my attention we do not allow fivesomes on busy days and almost never in the summer months, this should have been dealt with before they teed off. I want to apologize for my staff not recognizing the situation a rectifying it. Hope that you will give us another try in the near future.
Sincerely,
Tyson Jacobs

Beautiful Mountain Views
You have to put the Ball in the fairway to have a chance. Especially the par-5's. Gets breezy on the East/West holes in the afternoons but feels good on hot day.
Great round at Indian Creek
I had a great experience at Indian Creek. I found the conditions to be excellent. The course is well cared for and the greens are very fast! I used a hot deal on GolfNow which was an insanely good price for a course this nice.
Thanks for the great review, hope you can get back soon for another great round!!

Indian Creek
Great views decent course. Side hill lies on many holes is somewhat of a pain. CUT the tree branches on the 14th tee box. It truly is ridiculous. NO beverage cart on Sunday May 31st. Very warm and humid day and water was very sparse. Indian Creek, you can do better!
Amazing midweek round. Go now!
Course playing in fantastic condition. Fairways clean, greens rolling true and quick. Good service and several really good menu choices.
beautiful course
We had a great day. Weather perfect. Still cart path only, but not a problem. Can't wait to play there again soon.
Great Winter Surprise
Weather sunny and low 60's.... for January?!?! Course in amazing condition for middle of winter. Greens fantastic. Pace of play good too.
give it a try
In pretty good shape for three weeks after being plugged. Great weather.tee boxes are not the flattest.a course you have to play twice.
Every hole is a different experience
Haven't played this course in years, and I forgot how interesting it is. Certainly not boring as every hole is a different experience from all the rest. Lots of elevation changes, and I recommend riding if you're not in good physical condition. Its worth the trip. Lots of fun.
Unique course with lots of fun characteristics
Had a great time on Indian creek. We Played 18 holes walking. It is a tough course to walk and will definitely give you a workout with all the hills and stuff. Good course, not too hard to read. Some holes on the front nine have really tight fairways. Be prepared to hit straight shots. Most of all, it was the beautiful scenery and lush green grass that got me.
Superb Layout
Great design. Not long, but you can tell the designer was thinking. Elevated greens, short par 4's, lots of lay up shots from the tee for longer hitters. very good condition. fairly fast greens. you really have to think your way around the course and the wind forces constant club selection and positioning decisions. great course in my opinion.
First tournament
The course was in fantastic condition! I liked the twosome we were paired with. I would strongly suggest playing the course when the temp is not over 90 degrees, however. One great thing is that the carts all come with detailed yardages to a wide variety of trouble spots (bunkers, water, etc) for each hole from each tee box. It's a challenging walking course, so you'll get good exercise.
A nice 18 to add to the Year
I am from Beaverton, OR and try and play as many new courses as I can each year and yet try and find good greens, well groomed courses, challenges (within reason) and an above average pace of play. Indian Creek has all of these. Add the that the amazing views and its worth the drive from just about anywhere. One unique feature is there are few150 yard markers, but many 100 Yard markers. This shorter course has a couple long (175 & 199) par 3's and several 300 plus par 4's. I cannot wait to play it again to plan whether I want to go for the greens from 100 or 150.
Great Course
Despite the windy condition, this course was awesome. The rough was a little longer than expected, the greens were fast and the fairways were awesome. The only fairway issue was on 17 at the bottom of the lay-up area infront of the ropes, the ground was a little soft.
Would go back to play this course again.
Stunning views
I played front 9 early in the morning. The course offers great views of Mt. Adams and Mt. Hood.
It's relatively short but the wind makes it challenging.
The course is in great condition.
Nice Course
Beautiful views on golf course of surrounding mountains. Challenging golf course with some long walks between green and next tee.
Thanks for the great review, hope to see you again soon.
