Golf in Gresham

Gresham is Multnomah County's second-largest city, positioned at the eastern edge of the Portland metropolitan area where the urban fabric begins its transition toward the Sandy River basin and the Mount Hood foothills. MAX light rail connects Gresham to Portland's core, making it a commuter community with genuine residential substance. The surrounding terrain is shaped by volcanic soils deposited by the Cascades — the same geology that makes farming productive and golf courses drain well. Multiple courses serve the Gresham area, positioned between the urban east side and the more forested recreational terrain of the Sandy River corridor. Light rail connects Gresham to Portland, and the community's dual identity — suburban in many respects, yet positioned at the genuine edge of the Mount Hood foothills — gives its recreational landscape unusual variety. Golf facilities here include both private clubs and accessible options.
