Camas Meadows Golf Club
About
Camas Meadows Golf Club is routed through the forested wetlands that surround Lacamas Lake, providing beautiful scenery and plenty of natural hazards. It feels secluded but the club is conveniently just a short drive from Portland International Airport. The challenging track is one of the most popular public golf courses in the Portland metro area. The layout features narrow and winding fairways lined with mature trees and over 50 crushed white sand bunkers are strategically placed throughout. Water also comes into play on almost every hole. Some holes offer a risk-reward setup but most require a smart and careful approach as well as solid execution. At just over 6,500 yards, the course is somewhat short for a championship layout but no less challenging. It is a good compromise for casual golfers who still want to play a high quality round of golf.

Golfer Reviews
Hot dry summer really did a number on the fairways!
Always a great course to play! Usually lush, and green, but this unusually dry, hot summer really damaged the fairways. The greens are in good condition, the bunkers have awesome new sand, and the pace of play was great. Once our normal weather returns, the course will be back to normal.
Ball Eater
Starting at 630 am found the greens littered with debris and the fairways soaking wet. The course is a lowland cow path. Little grooming has gone into the development of the tight fairways and punishing rough. The weed bowl eats the balls inches off the first cut. But the worst part of the morning was the attitude of the desk at check in. That kid might have been a player once but stuck inside his arrogance is unbecoming to the game. He argued with me about my prepaid registration through golf now. I will not be returning to Camas.
Camas Meadows
Really enjoy the layout of the course. the green to next tee box is fairly long on ~7 holes, so cart would be best. Well maintained and greens hold your ball. Very scenic from clubhouse/restaurant down 18th fairway. Have played this course 6 times and will go back.
Great course
Staff friendly. Course is well maintaned. Greens are in great shape. Fairways have some small dry spots. But by far the best fairways I have played this summer. Tee boxes are in great shape also. Practice area's are very nice.
They do have some blind shots that make it difficult for the first time playing the course.
GOOD OUTING ON A CHALLENING COURSE
GOT OUT LATE DUE TO RAIN SHOWERS. COURSE WAS A BIT WET BUT THE GREENS WERE THE BEST I'V BEEN ON. PUTTING WAS TRUE AND FAST FAIRWAYS A LITTLE SLOW DUE TO RAIN.
beautiful day
nice views, some tight fairways, subtle breaks on greens. Staff was willing to help and there is an actual Marshall on the course.
Beautiful location and course
Good condition, pleasant surroundings and plenty of challenges. Especially some carries. Country club feel, although Sunday wedding preparations somewhat interfering with golfing experience ...
Another great round
Always great when you can get a GolfNow bundle with discount. Course is in great shape, many bunkers have been redone of late, and much improved. Love the practice facility. Always great to be able to drive cart on fairways and utilize GPS.
Picturesque gem
Chose this course over a couple others sight unseen. Mainly based on green fees and the logic that if it costs a bit more it must be a bit nicer. And I was right!
Fun layout. Good condition with quality greens and traps. Although it's walkable, would recommend the cart, since it has GPS and it is a jaunt from green to the next tee. Had a blast.
Plugged green, wish I was told prior to playing
I made a reservation on Golf Now, when I showed up I was told I could only play the front 9 twice, because they had just plugged the back nine that morning
I would never had booked a tee time had I known that!
Great golf experience
I am a preferred player at Camas Meadows and enjoy the course every time I go out there. The facilities are typically well maintained and the staff are very friendly. Food and beverages are great in their clubhouse, so take some time to eat while you're out there. Only downside is that on a busy day the pace of play can get pretty bogged down. If you get out there on a drizzling day, the course can get muddy, but the pace of play will be incredible.
This is not the deepest course (6,500 yards from tips) but very challenging for golfers of every level. Playing the proper tee box for your skill level is imperative to have an enjoyable round. Camas is a shot makers course that requires precision off the tee box and some touch around the greens to shoot good scores. Lots of penalties and trouble on every hole for bad shoots.
Overall it is a very picturesque course with some enjoyable sights from the tee box. Not too much undulation but enough to give a good feel of the layout. Worth getting out there for a round.
Great Day
Awesome round of golf. Great deal through golf now. Course was in great early year conditions. A walking group of three should have been faster, but two groups of three in carts ahead of us were slow.
Worth The Drive
We came from Olympia and found this course to be awesome. Staff was super friendly and helpful. Can't wait to go back!
Orm
One of the best in sw Washington and northern oregon can't wait to go back.
Not a course when it is wet...
Rained all day... course was in good shape without the rain but it is not a wet weather course. No towels on carts when it was raining hard... got dirty one's when we asked for some.
good deal from golf now!
I got a deal for 18 holes with a cart for $15. first week of march with some mist and very little rain, had the whole course to myself and made the most of it. The conditions were a little muddy but made it challenging, still made quite a few pars. Even had a couple chances for birdies. Sun would've been nice, but hey, it's washington!
Friendly staff. Great value
Staff were very accommodating. Fairways were in great condition. Excellent value for the money. Would recommend course.
