Rating 73.4

Chehalem Glenn Golf Club sprawls across beautifully hilly terrain, providing a course that is not for the faint of heart. The course is defined by the dramatic changes in elevation, which can make it tough to walk. The steep hills make this a tough golf course even for high handicappers. Uphill, downhill, and sidehill lies abound and you'll also face forced carries to narrow landing areas as well as blind layup shots. The more open front nine is player friendly and the back nine is where it gets tougher with mostly tree-lined holes and more strategically placed bunkers. The golf course is as scenic as it is challenging with elevated tees and greens that overlooks the surrounding hills and valleys. The beauty and difficulty of the course has built Chehalem Glenn Golf Club a reputation as one of the greater Portland area's must-play courses.

Great course and relatively cost friendly!

This is a great course. Generally forgiving, yet challenging with hills and water features. I’ve only played a few courses I’ve enjoyed more- especially for the cost.

Excellent Management

This golf course is beautiful. But what makes it different is the everyday operations. The staff is beyond excellent. Go play here. You won’t regret it.

Ok

This course is full of hills and trees. Can be very difficult, side shots if you don't land precisely. Very busy, Memorial day. Probably not that busy during the week. Two of us 4.25 hours.

Great course in beautiful condition!

Had a perfect day of golf with my uncle. Course was in fantastic shape and got the round done in just over 4 hours. Staff was great and all we were missing was the beverage cart going around (in their defense, it was supposed to be not the greatest of weather. If you haven't played it, make the drive and you will not regret it. Enjoy!

Cool, threatening day, but a nice day on the golf course

Chehalem Glenn is what it is ... a muni without a big budget that has a challenging layout based on the native landscape. That’s not to say it isn’t fun or challenging. Most of the tees were in reasonable condition as were the fairways, rough and greens. The traps are another story. They have been working on the drainage on some of them and those are still unplayable. Other have weeds growing in them or simply have very limited amount of sand in them. They need to address the sand issue or make them into green side grass bunkers.

Should also note that there was not a beverage cart operating.

Take a cart!

- Friendly and helpful staff, and clean freshly charged carts

- Decent practice range (no grass, just mats), and putting greens

- Carts are $15 (seems high to me but I usually walk)...This time I paid for a cart as Chehalem Glenn is not a very walkable course due to hilly terrain, especially 6, 9-12, and 14 with some long stretches between a few greens and the next tee

- Pace of play was reasonable (3hr 2-some on Fri morning, 8-11am), and a Marshall was out on patrol to manage pace of groups on front and back 9s

- Plenty of poison oak here, so stay out of the woods

- I enjoyed all the holes here ... even 9-11, which just feel and look odd to my eye

- Cool off on the shaded patio after the round

- Greens were in good shape but kinda slow, and many bunkers are in a state of ‘ground under repair’

The Crossings at Chehalem

A few holes reminded me of some of the great courses I played in San Diego. Fairways and greens are in excellent shape. We only played the front side, 2 hours of pull cart golf was just right for today! Will return for sure....

Great Value but SLOW Greens

Chehalem Glenn is one of the best values around and the course is usually in good shape. There are a couple funky holes but it is otherwise enjoyable and can be a challenge if you’re not hitting the ball straight. However, my biggest complaint is that the greens are always very slow. Some of the slowest I’ve seen. Today was a bit of an exception because they were punched recently but they always have the same issue. If the greens ran at a decent pace, the course would earn a much higher rating.
