Golf Courses-Oregon Coast

At Bandon Dunes Golf Resort, where the Pacific Ocean meets the rugged shoreline of the Southern Oregon Coast, three distinct courses await you.

The game of golf was born on rugged, wind-swept land just like this. Every hole, every hazard, every shot is defined by nature's infinite presence. As the elements change, so does the game. It's all part of the tradition of links golf. Lies are tight and conditions are lean. Bounce and roll are a much better measure of quality than color. Mastery of the ground game becomes a more important skill than raw power. The ingenious and inventive player is rewarded with multiple options on nearly every shot. Amongst the massive dunes and hearty pines, you'll discover golf in its purest state. Where nature is embraced, not conquered. And where the traditions of a time-honored game yield to an experience unlike any other.

Currently, Bandon and Pacific Dunes sit in the top 5 of almost all course ranking systems done by publications in the United States. In two surveys we obtained, they are ranked one and two with the new addition, Bandon Trails, in the top 15. Right in our own backyard we have what is quickly being referred to as the finest golf resort in the country. People literally come from all over the globe to play these courses.

Perhaps Golf Odyssey summed it up best: ".it is here, on this remote stretch of the wildly stunning Oregon coast, where the finest golf courses in the whole world quietly await you."
