The Reserve Vineyard Golf Club - Aloha

This course is absolutely beautiful and my favorite course in the entire Portland area. Both of them. Their twilight rates are often only $20-$25 more than the going rate at the muni courses, but these courses are infinitely better. So worth it. My only complaint is that I played twilight rates shortly after 5pm twice in July, and couldn't finish 18 before sundown, both times. Super slow 4-somes taking 10 minutes on the green, 10 minutes on the tee box, every hole. I know this is not the fault of the course managers, just expect it when the weather is nice, or even if it's 95 degrees. Book an earlier tee time, and wait, wait, wait. Your round will cost you 5-6 hours but you will love it, if you finish. We couldn't get through the front nine in almost 3 hours today, and EVERYBODY made the turn.

Decent course in decent condition. They overwater it to a pretty extreme degree to keep the image up for photos, but it truly hurts the quality of gold when it’s soggy in the summer when it shouldn’t. Additionally, it is frustrating to pay over $100 for a round and still have to pay for range balls. That’s some muni level stuff. First class courses do not nickel and dime for range balls if you’re playing. Lastly, no coolers on the carts?Do yourself a favor play Langdon Farms. Less expensive, better drainage, range balls are included, carts have coolers, plus free water and ice in them. That’s how golf should be. Reserve is a bit of a money grab.I’ll still play it a few times per year just for variety, but would play it a whole heck of a lot more if they didn’t leave such a bad taste from the apparent greed.

The service was friendly. The place was very full and very loud, and the food was very, very slow. Even the initial drinks were quite slow. Vibe was more family restaurant than club.It was prime rib night, and some of the cuts served to our party were so fatty they should not have been served. I did appreciate that the vegetables were not over-salted, they were quite tasty.The sun was coming in through windows and several people at different tables were shielding their eyes. Another customer finally got up to adjust the shades for everyone.I know they were slammed, so I felt some sympathy for the servers but the overall impression wasn't great.

The location had that classing Golf course vibe. The staff was friendly and attentive, and the food was excellent. Though perhaps missing a little of the emotional warmth found wanting at a golf course.

I photographed a wedding here and would recommend this venue to any couple that wants a timeless, elegant and modern feel. The staff was great to work with and my couple was glad they booked their venue here!
