Excellent

What a fun surprise and far better than expected. It’s very walkable and carts are high end like a private course.
There was outside staff.to assist even with Covid. The staff assisted finding water for self provided towels. Range has included practice balls and a good putting and chipping area. Sand traps also very good. The course was in fantastic shape w hard greens and immaculate fairways. It was a real joy to play. Especially after a disappointing round at The Reserve.

First time playing Ghost

Excellent facility with staff very friendly and accommodating. Driving range is one of the best I have ever used despite the mats for irons. Putting green was excellent with a variety of putts available. The chipping green was a bit small but in excellent shape. Golf course condition was exceptional and the greens were perfect. I will definitely return next time I come up.

Ghost Creek Golf @ Pumpkin Ridge

Ghost Creek is one of my favorite courses. The white tee length is a challenge, but manageable. The greens are fast, firm, and smooth with accessible pins. A low score must be earned.

Disappointed

In all honesty, the course was probably in some of the best shape I've ever seen it. However, pace of play was well over 5 1/2 hours. Tee time was delayed about 25 minutes, pace was atrocious. Saw the beverage cart once, and the marshal was nowhere to be found.

Based on the fees you pay to play here, pumpkin should be a better experience than that. I usually play a couple times a year but won't be back anytime soon after this debacle.

Challenging, but fair

Ghost Creek remains my favorite course in the Portland area. Even for early April the course was very walkable, and in great shape!

Pumpkin Ridge Ghost Creek Golf

The course was in excellent condition. Balls were easy to find in the rough, fairways were firm, and greens firm and fast. Sandtraps were raked and groomed. The only negative was the restriction of golf carts to the cart paths, slowing play excessively.

Soggy

Course had a frost delay, unavoidable this time of year which they let me know of by email which was a plus. Whole course had been aerated and sanded, but greens were still rolling pretty good. Rest of the course was very soggy though, softer than any other course I have played this year in the metro area. Several embedded balls which were difficult to find. Fun round but I should have known to wait til later in the year to play here.

Lost balls

The greens were sanded. Our whole group lost balls in the fairway and just off in the first cut. The back wasn’t playing as sloppy as the front but the greens were slow and unpredictable due to the sand. We haven’t played the course in 16 years. Love the layout but couldn’t find our balls any where due to them being plugged
