Such a hidden gem! Played Vernonia golf course with my husband yesterday, beautiful setting, the new owners definitely bringing it back to life.

We had high hopes for this tucked away golf course when we heard it was under new ownership, instead we ended up golfing on hard pan fairways amongst other golfers that just get to run around on their carts hopping holes. The chaos landed us in a bottle neck backup. We loved this course for its charm many years ago, but with the jacked up prices they are asking for with zero amenities by the way, its likely we will never go back until they get their act together. Just an FYI, there are only outhouse bathrooms and microwave hotdogs. So if you are expecting food like the website claims, be prepa…

I was out at Vernonia on Saturday, and I was VERY pleasantly surprised with how much work the new owners have put in, and what they've accomplished in less than two years. The greens are SO much better! They're close to what they used to be back when the course was kept in beautiful condition, and considering how neglected the course was, I'm amazed they are rolling as smooth and quick as they are. Tees are watered, and most are in really nice shape. Sand traps are maintained, there's a new event pavilion, and plans for a new clubhouse are being worked on. The only reason I gave four instea…

SECOND UPDATE: I feel like it's time to do one more solid update. This is my go-to course when I want a fun round with no rush. Hole 1 is still my favorite! The greens look so much better, too. The clubhouse is still closed down, but they bought a very awesome building to do transactions out of. They even sell drinks and snacks out of it now! I am very happy for the owners. The course is coming together so nicely. UPDATE: I've been back a few times since I made my original review, and they have done so much work to this place! The golf carts are great now! They run very well. Most of the gree…

Best golf course because of the people who own it and work there!!! I LOVE golfing there!! Nick is a true professional and runs a family atmosphere where everyone feels welcome. Friendly folks everywhere you turn. Course is 9 holes, but beautiful and far removed from any hustle and bustle of normal courses. You have a feeling of relaxation there and I'm proud to have this course in my town!

This is a great golf course to practice and work on your game. The people are super friendly, all the golfers are great It is in a rural area that is a beautiful setting and a very peaceful and relaxing place without the usual competitive atmosphere. The owner and employees cannot be beat for their friendliness. Take a drive and try it.

We recently played Vernonia golf club. Prior to going to the course I phoned them to ask about the conditions. I was told the condition was excellent including the greens that had been sanded one month prior except greens 2 and 4. Nothing Could be further from the truth. The fairways were in horendous condition being mostly dead grass and the greens had weeds, large holes and plant life that I did not recognize. Reading a putt was impossible. Navigating the course was also very difficult due to being poorly marked. At one point we could not find the seventh Teebox and had to go to the clubhous…

This course could be diamond if they would spend a little more time on the upkeep. If you don’t hit fairways every time you’ll spend major time searching for your ball or end up just taking a drop. Like to keep local business going but after this last round I won’t be giving them my business anymore.
