Mountain View Golf Course
Mountain View Golf Course in Boring, Oregon offers a welcoming 18-hole parkland layout with towering pines and subtly varied terrain. Its balanced challenge suits players from beginners to seasoned golfers, complete with a friendly clubhouse and scenic views that emphasize an inviting Pacific Northwest atmosphere.
Course Overview
Mountain View Golf Course offers an 18-hole public layout that challenges and welcomes golfers across skill levels. Located in Boring, Oregon, this course presents a traditional parkland style, characterized by towering Douglas firs, well-maintained fairways, and subtle elevation changes that engage players from the first tee to the eighteenth green. The course's natural contours work with its tree-lined fairways to frame shots while demanding accuracy and strategic thinking.
The atmosphere here reflects a community-focused environment, ideal for casual rounds after work or weekend escapes. While some holes reward a cautious playstyle, others encourage a bit more ambition, especially with the varied placement of greens and occasional bunkers guarding key landing areas. Hole 12 stands out in particular, praised by many for its scenic challenge, combining tight fairway angles with a well-protected green that tests approach shots.
Mountain View supports both walking and cart play, though golfers who prefer putting their feet to the turf should be aware that the terrain on the back nine can feel more demanding. The course maintains a relaxed pace for most rounds, though occasional busy periods may surface, highlighting the importance of patience on busier days.
Off the course, the clubhouse offers a welcoming space with a bar known for its friendly service and an inviting atmosphere to unwind after play. Food and beverage options complement the outdoor experience, creating a full day’s outing from first tee to final cup.
While some recent feedback notes variability in tee box conditions and pace-of-play challenges during peak times, Mountain View’s well-kept greens and striking views earn it steady approval from locals and visitors alike. For golfers planning a visit, midweek mornings often provide the best balance of quiet and course condition. Sturdy shoes are recommended for walkers due to certain undulating patches, particularly on the back nine.
This approachable yet thoughtfully designed course remains a solid choice for players looking to experience Oregon’s Pacific Northwest terrain without straying too far. Whether working on short game precision or enjoying laid-back rounds with friends, Mountain View Golf Course offers an accessible, engaging golf experience shaped by its environment and community spirit.
Course Highlights
The course is defined by mature Douglas firs framing fairways, varied hole lengths, and a particularly notable 12th hole combining tight angles and a protected green. The friendly clubhouse atmosphere enhances the experience, with a popular drink cart service adding convenience during play.

It's one of my favorite Golf courses! Hole #12, especially... comment below. I've only ran into this situation once or twice. But it was old club members. 5 to a group. But we didn't complain. And they didn't play the back 9. So a little patients goes a long ways. 😉 by the way I just played here today. 😂

Our visit to Mountain View was a complete disaster. We booked our tee time in advance over the phone and asked to be placed on the first tee time out, as we play quickly and wanted to finish before work. We were assured that we were the first out for the day at 6AM- only to arrive and witness the pro shop attendant send a group of walkers out ahead of us (we were a twosome in a cart). We planned to play 18 and when we arrived, the same pro shop attendant (who was extremely rude, hadn't had his morning coffee yet on 7/10/25, or was just determined to make everyone else misrable) informed us that we would have to play the front 9 twice, as they were performing "maintenance" on the back 9. Not ideal, but fair enough. As we were finishing the 7th hole, we saw groups on the back 9, meaning that he had lied to us about the back 9 being closed for the day. When asked after the round- he gave us some story about it being "members only" which was not the story we were presented when we checked in. The grounds staff is likely doing the best with the resources they have, so no complaints on course conditions, although puddles on the greens in mid July is not ideal. Overall, I would recommend playing anywhere but here as long as the "gentleman" who staffs the proshop in the mornings is still employed. Maybe he was having a bad day, but his customer service, choice to let someone out in front of us when we were assured the first tee time in the morning, and direct lie about the back 9 being closed for the day was enough to encourage us to never come back. $40 for 9, $59 for 18 and a cart goes a lot further at any other local municpal course in PDX and the surrounding area- make a tee time somewhere else!

Local Clackamas County Realtor secret spot to sneak in an emergency nine! It's always green and the T-sheet generally got an opening somewhere.

Slow play but not just slow play. Guys bring their girlfriends who’ve never played golf out to play midday on a Sunday. Then you have country boys in boots and Levi’s they can’t play at all and just like to let small kids drive the carts and bomb hole #12 that a super dangerous hill. Yes I won’t be back.

Used to be my local spot to hit after work. Last few times during the week there were like 12 to 15 teenagers teeing off rowdy as hell. Great, have a good time, but pace of play my guys. Not supposed to to. 25 minutes per hole. And the younger dude in the shop could give two poops. I might consider playing there again if marshals are out and if grownups are running things. Note, bar staff get 5 stars and are awesome!

Course appeared to be in pristine shape. Nice views , tall trees. Some fairways will challenge your straight game. The clubhouse upstairs very nice place to relax. Great selection of drinks and food. Great place been around a long time for a reason. Also shout out to the drink cart server. Rebecca was another reason to go back. Such a friendly greeting from the minute she showed up.

I read alot of bad reviews and I should have listened lol. Course condition was awful. Every tee box is a nightmare. They started punching tee boxes at 7am?!!? On a Monday. Never seen that before. Not walker friendly. Front 9 is fine the back 9 was sketchy and exhausting. 10/10 would not recommend nor come back. Hope this helps someone who's on the fence about playing here

Good course in good condition, especially for the first day of March! Felt like the greenskeeper may have been having a bad day or was testing everyone on a Saturday, as I think every hole on the green was placed on a slant...well made things interesting! Great people in the clubhouse and affordable golf. Well worth the visit!
