EXTREMELY disappointed in this location... Lots to this story, and some of it our fault Ill admit, but the "Operations Manager" at this location was completely out of line. His name is MARK. A group of four of us booked a Groupon, which turned out to be a pretty good deal. Now, I know its generally not okay to bring your own beer on to a course for numerous reasons, but here was our circumstance....... We had a few beers in our bags from the previous weeks round of golf. Beacon Rock did not offer a cart service at the time we were playing in the late afternoon, so we drank the beers we had in our bag when we ran out of the ones we purchased from them. We were turning in the carts before the end of our 18 holes because they wanted the carts in by 7pm, which is no problem, they didnt mention that when we booked it, but we dont mind walking the last bit. THIS IS WHERE THINGS GOT REAL INTERESTING.... Mark Mayfield, noticed me recycling some cans that he knew werent ones they sold there. I used the bathroom, and when I came out he approached me with one of the cans he fished out of the bin asking if it was mine. I didnt lie about it, I told him yes, they were mine, and apologized trying to explain I also bought several beers from them, and that we ran out in the midst of our game so we drank those as well. Thinking Id get a warning or a notice of breaking the rules or even someone that could comprehend what I was saying, Mark began cursing at me asking me if I was "f***ing stupid, you guys are f***ing a**holes, and youre breaking the f***ing law!! Im going to get your license plate and turn you pieces of s*** in!!". NO JOKE, I was dumbfounded, and asked him if he worked there. At this point I realized he had clearly been drinking himself, and felt genuinely nervous this was going to escalate to physical violence. He was screaming, using profanity so loud and belligerently it alerted my friends I was golfing with and other golfers on the course. The other gal working there was distraught too, asking Mark to please calm down and that she was "just going to call the cops" which I felt was more for his sake, than our few beers we brought on the course. At this point, I just wanted to get away from this guy, so I sincerely apologized and said wed leave, not even finishing the last 7 holes. Thats when he took the cans I recycled out of the bin and threw them at my friend and me hard hitting us in the mid section and legs while screaming "you can taking your f***ing cans with you too!!". Completely appalled we gathered our things and began to leave when he continued to stand in front of us mean mugging each of my friends as we walked out to the car. Seriously, this guy is nuts. I mean yeah, we shouldnt of had beers on the course, Ill admit to that, but to resort to physical and verbal assault over it? Not to mention he had clearly been drinking and decided this would be a good time to address the matter with us... I could see getting really upset with us had we been disrespectful in other ways, or had not bought any beers from them at all, but between us we purchased 8 of them, and probably wouldve bought more had he not freaked out like a crazy person. Congratulations Mark, by your obscene behavior, you just lost my business indefinitely and everyone I know. I just shared this story with my co-workers and we all had a good laugh at your expense, because it was such a ludicrous thing to do when running a business. Its so crazy, you know Ill bring it up to anyone I golf with as well. You also may want to consider joining AA and an anger management group! Hope it was worth it for you!

Horrible management, MAKE SURE YOU READ ALL OF THIS. Paid for 18 holes only to find out after getting thru 9 that the 18 holes is repeating same 9 again. Pro Shop never said anything about that when he asked 18 or 9 when I paid for 18.Returned to ask for rain check but wouldnt give ,mentioned to him was poor business practice to have someone pay for 18 and not tell them its repeating same 9 twice and no rain check to return on 9.Total paid for 18 holes and driving range plus cart $90.Driving range is a joke no identification for range or distance as well as if you blink you have past the tattered carpets you tee from. Pro shop has no water in bathrooms. You have to fill toilet after you flush with a pitcher and water from trash can that is next to toilet. Then wash and from water jug propped up on sink. I wouldnt recommend my worst enemy to play here if not for out lying mountain location this place would be a field.

Mark and Tamara at the Beacon Rock Restaurant located at the golf course deserve a 10 for their breakfast, I had the best cinnamon french toast served with Organic syrup and pecans (nice touch!) . Jim had bacon, eggs and hash brown potatoes freshly grated right onto the grill and cooked in virgin olive oil, bacon perfectly crisp and tasty. Mark Never let our coffee cups get low and always had a smile! Open to the public (you dont have to golf) this is a great place to stop for food and a friendly face. I will be back!

Just a little 9 hole course that isnt very well taken care of. New owners are friendly and personable and theres a limited cafe inside the clubhouse. Greens seemingly are seldom cut or swept and fairways have little body to them as apparently they dont get much fertilizer. Further, despite someones comment that it has a view of the Columbia river gorge, theres no view to speak of. Its a decent course to practice your irons (if you can get a decent lie in the fairway) but otherwise its below average.

Modest little down home cafe at a 9 hole golf course. Great view of the Columbia Gorge. Fresh hash browns, organic eggs and Daves killer bread are hard to find in any restaurant in this vicinity. If your vegetarian, they have veggie burgers and homemade potatoe salad. Delicious!

It was a fun little course, but a bit rustic, ie.. rough. The greens were rough, fairways also needed mowed. Kind of ok with it all because of the great rate we had to pay. Bottom line, it was fun.

This course is a beautiful walk in the Gorge. And they have a small resturant in the clubhouse that is excellent! The best huevos rancheros north of the Arizona border. Dont miss it.
