Pros:
The 200 acre Whistlers Bend property is just magnificent. Surrounded by the great N. Umpqua River. 27 - 980 rated holes.(even Par is a pro score) Course was recently converted from 18 to 27 holes.
All custom cement tees. It has a huge variety of hole designs, from long tunnels in the Douglas Fir's to wide open river front bombs and some of the most challenging short down hill par 3s. One of the feature holes is a 600'+ huge down hill. 2 campgrounds (55 sites total), 3 group camps and 3 yurts (military style tent w/power) are right next to the course. Discs sold at front gate and in town. Steelhead and trout fishing year around. Swimming, floating and kayaking June - Sept. Lots of tournaments to choose from. 2828 Whistlers Park Rd.
