Salishan Golf Links

Great coastal Oregon gem. Really fun design and great conditions. Greens were very pure. Fairways were still firm and pace was pretty fast. Started on the back 9 which had several holes with beautiful ocean views. Front 9 was pretty too but I prefer the back. The pro shop was very friendly as was everyone else I encountered. I highly recommend this course and I will be back

I golf here frequently. My daughter and her boyfriend joined us for a beach trip in early May. We were surprised by great weather so we walked on for 18. What an awesome experience. Salishan has always been a good resort course but they have recently really upped their game to a country club experience. In true Peter Jacobson fashion the fairways are narrow and well groomed. Lots of elevated greens. The front 9 are carved out of the old growth forest. You miss the fairway and oh....!!!. The back 9 has awesome views as you go out to the bay and near the ocean. All the par 3s are challenging with elevation changes or in the case of 11 a brisk wind off the bay. The greens had recently been aerated but they were well sanded, quick and true. At the end of the day two cart boys met us at our car..cleaned our clubs, loaded them in the trunk and took the carts while we went shopping in the clubhouse. All in all a 5++ star experience.

I don't usually write reviews, but felt it important to share our experience so other vacationers steer away from this place. We arrived early on 4/15/25 to play 18, as we had already paid in full weeks in advance carts were all we needed to settle up for $88, as we were getting ready to hit the range and warm up the young man at the counter reminded us there was no front nine today..sanding was being done. I exclaimed we were not told of this in advance, and if we didn't want to play the back 9 twice can we be reimbursed for the front 9? we were met with a no can do. After some back and fourth he called for the Pro to help assist us, she said she could make us a voucher for a free round for the inconvenience..Great! we thought that was a more than fair gesture, she said come see me when your done and I will take care of it. So we returned after playing the back 9, the Pro had left, and the rest of the staff had no clue about any compensation for the mix up couldn't help us ( nobody had the ability to) was the answer. Side note the grounds crew rolled the greens, and made us wait to hit several times while mowing ( not bagging) fairways, and hitting up to the green leaving their mower engines still running. For what you pay this is a rip off, and probably the worst golf staff experience we have ever come across ever trust me we have never complained in hundreds of rounds played all over Oregon. The course itself is a potential gem, the management is in need of lessons in customer service badly. Sadly avoid this place until you hear of new management being added. Don't be duped by this place like we were. FYI the two stars are for the course layout and amazing views. Not going to go into the no food or drinks available...
