Desert Canyon Golf Resort in Orondo
This is the only desert course located in Central Washington, and desert waste areas come into play on every hole. The greens are large, undulating, and fairly fast. The signature hole is #6, a 679-yard, downhill par 5, featuring a 150-foot drop in elevation and a beautiful view of the Columbia River. "Golf Digest" rated this course as the 5th "Best Public Course," and 35th among the "Top 75 Upscale Courses" for 1996. The same publication rated it the 2nd "Best in State" course for the years 1995 through 1998. In addition, "GOLFWEEK" awarded it 65th among "America's 100 Best Modern Courses" for 1997. This resort also features a par 70 putting course. The putting course has water, sand, rocks, and other hazards coming into play. This is a fun and exciting way to improve your putting stroke.
