Blue Heron Golf Course

I've been playing this course for 30+ years and it's never played better! Ownership has listened to players and made the right upgrades; Greens are rolling good and true, rough has been cut down, but still challenging, paving of the paths has added increased value, and the fairways are tight and firm. Through it all, the staff has remained the friendliest in the Northwest! Great job, Guys!!

Played Blue Heron for the first time. It's a nice course and was very quiet on a sunny Friday morning. Greens were in good condition with a few areas of repair. Course seems to hold ground water, so some shots had zero roll. Cart path is being paved, so improvements are coming.

Golf course was in very good condition and on several holes, improvements were being made. It was not crowded and pace of play was very good.

First timer from the East Coast, great value and decent layout, does not need to hit long, but needs to be accurate, the greens are good. There are some real great holes. A great place to hone your irons shots to the green

Course is still on the "rough" side although there appears to be genuine efforts to improve it. The fairways are uneven with some poorly sodded areas. Greens are generally very good and quick. Staff is very friendly. All in all, a good course with lots of potential for growth. Interesting holes with lots of rough and water to hit over.

Modest and peaceful. Front nine is the better of the two. Demanding course off the tee. Difficult collection of par 3s. Rough could come down to make it easier to find balls. Recovering from a prior bankruptcy, New ownership has invested in the clubhouse and food. The course needs work but they are on the right track

First time here. Some of the sight lines off the tee are awful. Not only is the overgrowth excessive, but the fairway is not even visible on three holes. Heard from the course pro that there was a lot of flood damage in 2015 and they are trying to bring it back around. Greens were very good in spots, and lumpy with lots of bare spots in others. Seems like about half the course in under construction. Overall, a low to average experience, although all the staff was exceptional and really tried to make the day a good one.

Overall the course is laid out well and is fun to play. They need to finish upgrades/maintenance. Newly paved cart paths are nice, but they need to keep going. Most are still dirt with potholes. A couple tee boxes under construction.

In 8 months this course has transformed dramatically! Didn't think I'd be saying this, but my golfing buddy and I agreed - we're coming back asap.

Course plays great,the setting is lovely. Staff is friendly and the roof bad patio is chillax. Ignore any old gripes about conditions. Book midday and drive against traffic - I'll be back again

Even though the pro shop guy was amiable and helpful, I gave a sub-par rating to Blue Heron. This course needs some serious TLC, fairways left to grow 3" with muddy patches, lost three balls to the mud and tall fairway grass within 5 holes, gave up after 6 while paying for 18.
I might try this course in the summer, but in it's current condition, I wouldn't recommend it at all unless you like playing mudball in swampland.

I got to talk to a few folks out here and apparently it has been a rough dry summer for the course. After a couple rainy days, it is greening back up. Most greens have huge brown spots that are plugged and sanded. Fairways are just ok. Tee boxes are very compacted. The greens are quite flat and easy to read. There was hardly anyone there on a Wednesday, so if you can grab a "hot deal," it is worth the drive. The very old giant maples are fabulous !!

Sunny day, not crowded, overgrowth trimmed, even got a few pars :)

For the price, $ 14 per person... Great value! Told my son he had to play some run down courses so he could appreciate the really nice ones!!!

Generally i enjoy playing the Heron. Its a basic golf course tee to green. Not many bunkers to worry about, Water can come into play on a few holes but its pretty straight forward. With the super dry summer we've had here in the Pacific Northwest the course is currently as dry and burnt out as i've ever seen it. Played the back nine and many of the greens are also burnt up. With the current course conditions is would be nice to see discounted rates but i understand that won't make paying the water bill any easier. All in all it was a good afternoon out with my lady riding shotgun. Birdied a few holes, downed a cold Silver Bullet, good times, and thats what its all about anyway right,,,,

The facilities are very nice, friendly staff. The course however, was total garbage. It has been an unusually hot summer, but I still was extremely unimpressed. If I hadn't paid the twilight rate, I would have asked for money back.

I do have to say, the end of the round burger was stellar.

Tee time was scheduled for 12:30. No carts. Since a Real Estate scramble was to start at 12:00. Finally got a cart at 12:20 and did tee off at 12:40. Went downhill from there. Had to wait at every tee. Slower and slower. No course ranger keeping the scramble going. Course ranger gave up cart . No tee times should have been scheduled following the scramble for at least two hours. Really poor course management. A 6 hour round. Arrogant scramble people would not let smaller groups go through. A disaster.

Greens were watered and that's it... yellow and dried out... tee boxes were so hard you couldn't get a tee in the ground... fairways brown..

Grass was really dry, but it was still fun, I will golf here again

Fairways were the worst I've played on in a while, has to step on tees to get them into the tee boxes, everything was dry. Pretty much had to lay up about 30 yards in front of green otherwise the ball would roll for days. The layout itself would be nice and challenging if the condition were better. For the price it was a complete waste in my opinion. The club house was great and the service there was great also, like I said could be a nice little course.
