Trysting Tree Golf Club



About this course
Trysting Tree Golf Club sits on the western edge of Corvallis in Oregon's Willamette Valley, designed by Ted Robinson Sr. and opened in 1988. The course takes its name from a Scottish tradition where lovers would meet beneath a designated tree, and a large oak near the clubhouse serves as the property's namesake landmark. Robinson, known for incorporating water features throughout his portfolio, brought that signature style to this layout, where several holes play along or across creeks and ponds that wind through the relatively flat valley terrain. The routing makes strategic use of water on roughly half the holes, requiring golfers to navigate carries and shoreline approaches that define the course's challenge and character. Mature trees frame many fairways, and the property's setting offers views toward the surrounding hills and farmland typical of the mid-valley region. The course serves both public daily-fee play and a membership base, making it a central golf facility for the Corvallis area and Oregon State University community. Trysting Tree has hosted various regional amateur events and collegiate tournaments over the years, benefiting from its accessibility and conditioning. The layout measures over 7,000 yards from the back tees, providing length for competitive play while offering multiple tee options for recreational rounds. The club maintains a welcoming atmosphere that reflects the university town setting, with a clubhouse that accommodates both casual golfers and organized group outings throughout the year.

Getting there
Trysting Tree Golf Club sits in the Willamette Valley, accessible via Portland International Airport (PDX), roughly ninety minutes north by car through Oregon's rolling agricultural heartland. The drive south from Portland traces Interstate 5 before branching east toward Corvallis, a transition that shifts from urban sprawl into the gentle, vine-draped countryside that defines this corner of the Pacific Northwest. As you approach the club's grounds just south of town, the landscape opens into pastoral vistas of hazelnut orchards and distant tree lines, with the Cascade Range rising softly on the eastern horizon - a fitting prelude to the mature, oak-studded fairways and serene water features that define Trysting Tree's understated elegance.
