About this course
Camas Meadows Golf Club sits in Camas, Washington, a city in the Columbia River Gorge region east of Portland, Oregon. The course was designed by Andy Raugust, a Pacific Northwest architect known for his work on municipal and daily-fee layouts throughout Washington and Oregon. Raugust's designs typically emphasize playability for a range of skill levels while working within the natural terrain and budget constraints common to public golf facilities. The course occupies land characteristic of the lower Columbia River valley, where relatively flat to gently rolling terrain and the temperate maritime climate support year-round play. Camas itself developed historically as a mill town, and the surrounding landscape blends residential development with remnants of the area's forested and agricultural past. Courses in this region often feature tree-lined fairways, water hazards fed by seasonal drainage, and views toward the Cascade foothills when weather permits. As a community-oriented facility, Camas Meadows serves local golfers and visitors exploring the Columbia Gorge area. The routing likely reflects the site's topography and existing natural features, with holes arranged to provide variety in length and challenge without requiring excessive earth-moving. The course offers a straightforward test of golf suited to regular play, fitting the profile of accessible public golf common to smaller cities in the Pacific Northwest.

Getting there
The journey to Camas Meadows Golf Club begins at Portland International Airport (PDX), situated roughly forty minutes west across the Columbia River, or at Seattle-Tacoma International (SEA), a ninety-minute drive north through the Willamette Valley and across the Cascade foothills. From PDX, the route traces eastward along Interstate 84, hugging the Columbia River Gorge as the landscape shifts from urban sprawl to dramatic basalt cliffs and evergreen forest, before peeling north toward the quiet town of Camas and the club's secluded setting in the rolling terrain east of Portland. For those arriving by private aircraft, Camas-Washougal Airport lies just minutes from the property, offering a discreet alternative to the commercial terminals. The final miles unfold through pastoral Washington countryside, where Douglas fir and oak give way to the manicured grounds of Camas Meadows, a fitting conclusion to a journey that moves steadily from the Pacific Northwest's urban core into its more serene interior.
