Heron Lakes Golf Club

Last Updated Dec 2008


Heron Lakes Golf Course was opened for public play in 1971. The course was designed by Robert Trent Jones, Jr. and is located off of I-5 next to the Portland International Raceway. It was named after the Blue Herons that inhabit the many lakes and ponds around the course. There are two courses, the Great Blue and the Green Back.

The Great Blue has been rated for years as the most difficult course in the Portland Area. It is a links style course with water, tall rough, narrow fairways, and sand everywhere. Most fairways on the Great Blue narrow to small greens that roll and pitch in several directions.

The Green Back is similar to the Great Blue except it has more trees and fewer fairway bunkers. It also ranks as one of Portland's most difficult.

So, buy some extra golf balls, practice at the range, and make a tee time for one of the most challenging rounds you will play in the Portland area.
