Trysting Tree Golf Course

played here several years ago and enjoyed the course

We recently held the monthly meeting of our club at Trysting Tree. We also put together a mini-​Scramble prior to the meeting for those members who wanted to participate. My wife made the contacts and reservations for these a month or so in advance.
I’m pleased to report that both events went off without a hitch, and were very enjoyable. Sean (Head Pro/​GM) was easy and low key to work with. Very warm and welcoming to our group. He blocked out tee times for our groups to play the course together, gave us a discount on the green fees, and made sure the kitchen was staffed to feed a group of our size in a timely manner (The double cheeseburgers are AWESOME!). He even threw in a prize for our tournament (an 18 hole round of golf). We were very appreciative, as that was really unexpected and going above-​and-​beyond!
By the way, we thought the course was in GREAT shape, especially considering the long, HOT summer we have been experiencing.
Our experience could not have been better. Sean and his crew took great care of our group.
Thanks so much!

I play Trysting when ever I’m in the area. This course has large fairways, sand on about every hole and large smooth fast greens. It is a links style course but is user friendly. The staff seems very friendly and helpful. There is a nice sandwich shop. I would definately recommend this course.

On rare occasion, the experience with service and staff is so incredibly bad, it can overshadow the course itself. We had a 5-​some on Dad’s Weekend in Corvallis. From the initial phone call to set a tee time, the resident golf pro (guy with a blonde mullet) was short with us, and surprisingly rude. We came in from out of town to see our sons in Corvallis, so we needed to rent clubs. They rented us 3 bags of clubs, and they were absolute garbage. Two of the drivers were broken and unusable, forcing us all to share. I’ve golfed alot across this great nation of ours, and have yet to experience a snottier, ruder, and less enthusiastic staff in my life. They kept sending out this golf police dude to nip at our heels and push us through faster, even though there was nobody behind us. It became quite annoying for some Dads and Sons who were looking to play a relaxing 9 holes on an otherwise great weekend in Corvallis. The course itself was mediocre at best, and you could tell they put the same level of enthusiasm into the groundskeeping. Leaves and goose crap everywhere. If you’re looking for a place to golf in Corvallis, I’d definitely skip this one.

$ 22 and no air hose!!! Overpriced and just meh…

A long links type course, so it’s pretty flat and wide open. It’s the course for the Oregon State University Golf Team, but there really isn’t too many other courses in the vicinity also. It’s a good lush and green classical Oregon links course. It’s well manicured and usually the pace of place moves quickly.
They have a fairly nice range where most of the time (when it’s not raining) you can hit off the grass.
Easy to get to since it’s right before you get to Oregon State University from I-​5.
