About this course
Chehalem Glenn Golf Club sits in the Willamette Valley wine country near Newberg, Oregon, approximately thirty miles southwest of Portland. Designed by Bill Robinson and opened in the mid-1990s, the course occupies rolling terrain characteristic of the region's agricultural landscape, with views extending across vineyards and toward the Chehalem Mountains. The routing takes advantage of the property's natural elevation changes, incorporating both open meadowland and wooded corridors. Robinson's design reflects the Pacific Northwest's parkland tradition, with tree-lined fairways, strategic bunkering, and greens that reward accurate approach play. The course measures around 6,500 yards from the back tees and presents a balanced test for players of varying abilities. Water features come into play on several holes, while the property's natural contours create elevation changes that add visual interest and strategic variety to the round. The club operates as a public facility, serving both local golfers and visitors exploring Oregon's wine country. Its location in Newberg places it within the heart of the Willamette Valley's viticulture region, making it a convenient stop for those combining golf with vineyard tours. The course conditions and maintenance standards reflect the temperate climate of western Oregon, with the playing season extending through much of the year despite winter rainfall.

Getting there
The journey to Chehalem Glenn Golf Club begins at Portland International Airport (PDX), roughly forty-five minutes northwest, before turning south through the gently rolling terrain of Oregon's Willamette Valley wine country. The drive from Portland trades urban sprawl for pastoral farmland and vineyard-lined roads, descending gradually into Newberg as the Cascade Range rises softly on the eastern horizon. Private aviation options at nearby Portland-Hillsboro Airport (HIO) offer a more discreet arrival for those seeking to bypass the main terminal, positioning guests just thirty minutes from the club's gates. The final miles wind through the quiet, oak-dotted landscape of Yamhill County, where the approach to Chehalem Glenn unfolds amid the serene backdrop of Oregon's premier wine region - a fitting introduction to a course that commands both the valley floor and the contemplative spirit of the Pacific Northwest.
