The Highlands at Gearhart is a gorgeous executive style course that is located next to the Oregon Coast. It meanders through a neighborhood and is sculpted out of a hillside overlooking Gearhart Beach. This 1800-yard, par-30 course provides all the challenge and practice you need for your short game.

The course also lays claim to having the best prices on custom-made clubs and equipment in the country. Some manufacturers restrict them from advertising their low prices. Call for prices and a brochure, you won't be disappointed.

    This course will really point out your weaknesses ie. hitting fairways, chipping, putting on fast greens and paying attention to wind speed and direction. Ten dollar tuesdays unbeatable! Really fun course.

    Beautifully maintained executive length course. Nice variety of holes. Lots of fun to play. Played 18 on our first day of a trip down the coast, liked it so much we had to stop by for another 9 on our way home. Graet value.
