Desert Peaks Golf Course

About Desert Peaks Golf Course

Tucked away in Oregon's high desert country, this public track offers something you won't find at most courses in the region, genuine elevation changes and dramatic views of the Cascade peaks. The layout takes full advantage of the natural terrain, with several holes playing across rolling sagebrush-dotted landscape that feels more like eastern Oregon ranch land than a traditional golf course. What strikes you immediately is how the designer worked with the existing topography rather than bulldozing it flat, creating a routing that feels organic to the high desert setting. The conditioning punches well above its weight for a small-town municipal course, and at these green fees, you're getting exceptional value for central Oregon golf. The 4.4 rating from locals tells the real story. This isn't a destination course that will draw players from Portland, but it's the kind of solid, unpretentious golf that keeps you coming back. Walking is not only allowed but recommended here; the desert air and wide-open views make for a meditative round that reminds you why golf was meant to be played on foot.
