Heron Lakes Greenback is a par-72, 6,638-yard public course in Portland, OR, established 1971 — the 25th-longest course on record in Oregon. From the BLACK tees it plays to a 72.0 rating and 132 slope.
Heron Lakes Greenback shares the Columbia Slough wetland complex with its sister course Great Blue, offering 18 holes of a distinctly different character across the same ecologically rich north Portland terrain. Where Great Blue earns its reputation through challenge, Greenback provides a more accessible entry to the same extraordinary wildlife setting — wading birds, occasional waterfowl, and the restored wetland landscape that Portland's city golf system has maintained within the urban grid. Multnomah County's investment in this dual-course facility reflects a genuine commitment to accessible recreation, and the Greenback layout allows golfers of varying experience levels to engage with one of the Pacific Northwest's most distinctive course environments.
