McKenzie River Golf Course Review

McKenzie River Golf Course Review

McKenzie River Golf Course is a fine 9 Hole golfing establishment on the outskirts of Springfield, OR. Located just one mile off of Highway 126, the most notable aspect of McKenzie River Golf Course is its setting. The course is settled in a beautiful valley, while running along its namesake river. In fact, the McKenzie River is visible on seven of the courses nine holes, including the entirety of the 7th hole. In all, this family run course is a strong addition to the Eugene-area golf scene, and enjoyable for players of every skill level in the area.

McKenzie River Golf Course is an entertaining and well-kept Par 35 course. While relatively flat, you do see severe elevation changes on the 2nd green and 3rd tee box. Tree lined fairways and green side bunkers present the bulk of your problems around this track. If you spray some shots you can find trouble of course. Errant tee shots will usually end up in a nearby fairway, and in most cases a punch out will be your only choice. While the attackable greens provide average speeds with minimal undulation, they will still provide a nice challenge to most golfers.

For those looking for a quick stop and a manageable 9 Holes in the Eugene area, McKenzie River is a great choice. A friendly, family oriented staff manages the course and pro shop. In addition, McKenzie River provides a full driving range and practice green.
