Bend Golf & Country Club
Bend Golf and Country Club began in 1925 as a Chandler Egan-designed nine-hole golf course in the small lumber town of Bend. In over 80 years, the course has transformed into one of Central Oregon’s most treasured member-owned clubs.
This spectacular golf course features over 7,000 yards of signature holes, fairways lined with majestic Ponderosa pines, and risky but rewarding shot opportunities.

The back nine allows golfers to gamble with their driver more often. A certified Audubon facility and a complete practice facility including two chipping/putting greens, a driving range, three greenside bunkers, a 275-yard practice hole, and a 75-yard approach area make this all-inclusive country club quite popular. A true family-atmosphere club, Bend Golf and Country
Club allows members to enjoy tennis, swimming, a fitness facility, gourmet and casual dining, and a variety of social events.
