Pumpkin Ridge Golf Club’s Ghost Creek, located at 12930 NW Old Pumpkin Ridge Rd, North Plains, Oregon, is a public 18-hole course designed by Bob Cupp. Opened in 1992, this 6,839-yard, par-71 course has a rating of 73.8 and slope of 137, hosted events like the 1996 U.S. Amateur and 1997/2003 U.S. Women’s Open. Set in Oregon’s rolling hills, it features tree-lined fairways and wetlands, with amenities including a pro shop, dining at Talon Grill, and practice facilities. Its reputation as a championship venue draws golfers seeking a historic experience.
Ghost Creek plays with a parkland-links hybrid style, where tree-lined fairways and water hazards demand accuracy, especially on holes like the par-4 5th with its tight approach. The course’s firm greens and strategic bunkering challenge short-game skills, as noted in X reviews praising its pristine conditions and pace of play. Its moderate length offers playability for mid-handicappers, but championship tees test low handicappers with precision and distance control, balancing challenge with accessibility.
