Broadmoor Golf Course, CLOSED 2020
Broadmoor Golf Course is a Public, 18 hole golf course located in Portland, Oregon.
In 1931 six sisters decided to convert their parent's Rose City Dairy operation into a golf course. A friend named George Junor designed and supervised the layout. The course (Broadmoor Golf Course) opened on Labor Day of 1931.
Broadmoor is a 6,404-yard par 72 spread over 220 acres of beautiful land with various exciting hazards. Undulating fairways, multiple trees, greenside bunkers, and the Broadmoor Lake and slough provide plenty of challenges throughout the course.
The Course Closed October 25, 2000.
The land was sold for commercial development.

The greens on this public golf course are as pristine as any private country club in this or any other area. It is a tree-lined course that penalizes errant drives, but one on which you can score if you are able to keep the ball in play.
With the 405-yard Par 4 tenth hole, as the opening to a challenging back nine, it is a treat to make par and a thrill whenver you make birdie. The drive must be kept under 250 yards to avoid the water hazard that crosses the fairway. For those who only hit it in the 200-yard area, the shot to the green makes the decision to go for it or lay up problematic, because the water is just over 50-yards across & once cleared, the remaining 45-yards to the green is all uphill. Shots that barely make it over the water, frequently roll back into the hazard and require another shot, leaving a minimum of 145-yards to the green, depending on where you decide to drop.
