The ExploreOregonGolf Passport provides the best value for golfers across Oregon and Southwest Washington. The small, passport-sized book has special offers from 73 golf courses – each providing an 18-hole round (with cart included) for a total fee of $30 or less.
Instead of paying up to $100 for 18-holes and a cart, ExploreOregonGolf Passport holders can play that same course for just $30. It takes the average Passport holder just five-to-six rounds to make up the cost of the Passport (in savings).
Ten new golf courses were added to the 2017 ExploreOregonGolf Passport, which takes the total of participating courses to 73.
