Cedar Bend Golf Course

Cedar Bend Golf Course in Oregon is an 18-hole layout designed by John Zoller and opened in 1971. The course plays between 5,231 and 6,288 yards from a par of 72, offering enough challenge for experienced golfers while remaining approachable for newcomers. The layout is built on a 9-hole footprint, with two flags on each green and some tee boxes that shift between nines — giving the round the feel of a full 18-hole course. Elevated tees and greens add variety throughout, and small mounds around several greens demand precise approaches. Water is a constant presence. Cedar Fork Creek winds through the course, coming into play on nearly every hole and requiring golfers to cross it on several occasions. Its clear water and smooth stone bed make it a distinctive feature, especially on warm summer days.
