Creekside Golf Course, nestled in the rolling hills of South Salem, is where Oregon's quiet golf ambition takes root. While not nationally renowned, it serves as a vital proving ground for the state's amateur talent. Originally designed in the early 1990s, the course unfolds in a modern parkland style, characterized by tree-lined fairways and strategically placed water hazards. The course is relatively generous off the tee, but rewards accurate approach shots, especially on the inward nine, where well-guarded greens test a player's short game mettle. The club has long been known for its competitive club championship which is a true test of golf and endurance. Though it hasn’t hosted major championships, Creekside has been the site of numerous Oregon Golf Association events, fostering a spirited competitive atmosphere and highlighting the state’s promising golfers. Creekside remains a cherished local institution, a place where the love of the game thrives.
