Mountain View Golf Course is located half way between downtown Portland and Mt. Hood in Boring, Oregon. This 18-hole course stretches for 5,926 yards from the blue tees and is an excellent course for those of you who are looking for a challenge. Rolling fairways lined with trees and greens with well-placed bunkers await the unprepared golfer.

The biggest attraction at the course is signature hole #12. This is one of the most unique holes in the Portland area. It's 184 yards from the blue tees and 180 feet down (that's almost 18 stories). If you would normally use a 4 or 5 iron for 184 yards, you better switch to an 8 or 9 on this one. Check out the hole in our photo gallery and then call for a tee time.

Beautifully manicured and chipping is allowed.

The driving range has open hitting areas off of mats only with red flags as yardage indicators.

Hole #16 is a fun par 4. It's short but still has enough hazards to satisfy the challenge that all golfers love. Trees and one large bunker are to the left and the fairway rolls down and to the right. Your approach shot will be short and to an elevated gr

Hole #14 is a relatively easy par 5 as long as you avoid the hazards. A creek runs across the fairway and is easily reached off the tee. A pond on the left and trees lining the right will also cause problems.

Hole #12 is one of the most awesome holes on any of the Portland area golf courses. Club selection for the 184-yard hole would be simple if it wasn't 180 feet down. Trees, bunkers and a creek that runs to the left and back of the green also surround the h

The green on hole #11 wraps half way around the far bunker. Depending on the pin placement, you could three or four putt if you are unfortunate enough to land on the back part of the green.

Hole #8 is a dogleg left with a fairway that narrows to the green. A large oak tree (not shown) juts into the fairway about 200 yards out. If you can avoid the tree, you will find your approach shot fairly easy. Watch for the deep bunkers to the left and

Hole #4 is the number one handicap hole and earns every bit of it. Trees line both sides of this rolling fairway with an out of bounds to the right. The fairway rolls into a gully about 230 yards out which leaves you with your next shot to an elevated gre

My husband and I play this course often. The fairways and greens are beautifullly maintained ... and has a great view of Mt. Hood! My game improves each time I play here. It is definitely one of my favorite courses!

This is a well kept course and not crowded. The price is great and it has a good variety of holes. There are not a lot of water or sand trap hazards, but if you can't drive fairly straight, your ball will end up in the houses that border the course. That made it fun.

The number 12 hole is awesome... using the 9, I actually hit it past the hole into the creek area, and had to take a drop. Definitely a hole you need to be accurate on. Probably one of the funnnest holes I have played.

The staff was really relaxed and helpful, and the clubhouse is much nicer than many I have seen. Good pro shop too. I did not use the range, but it looks good. It is narrow, like a fairway.

I will be returning often.

I have now played 5 rounds of golf at this course, and enjoy it very much. Although it is not a perfect course (driving range coming up both 9 and 18 can be a bit of a distraction), it is challenging and, as my wife says, very pretty. The pro shop and deli staff are nice and accommodating of about any requests you may have of them. Now that I have found Mountain View, I will continue to play here often as it has a "feel" that I like, and is not overly crowded with the pretentious golfers "better" courses seem to attract.
