- Hey fellow golf enthusiasts! Let me take you on a virtual tour of a hidden gem on the southern Oregon coast — Bandon Preserve at Bandon Dunes Golf Resort. This isn't just any golf course; it's a 13-hole par-3 masterpiece designed by the legendary duo Bill Coore and Ben Crenshaw. Opened in 2012, Bandon Preserve offers a quick yet exhilarating round with each hole framed by stunning views of the Pacific Ocean. What makes Bandon Preserve truly special is its commitment to nature. Not only do the green fees go to the Wild Rivers Coast Alliance, supporting local conservation efforts, but the course itself is a tribute to the beauty of Oregon’s rugged coast. The 13th hole is a showstopper — picture this: you're teeing off over native vegetation with the coastline stretching infinitely beyond. It’s challenging, it’s breathtaking, it’s unforgettable. For those swinging the clubs here for the first time, pay close attention to your club selection and keep an eye on the coastal winds. They can be tricky and can dramatically influence your ball flight. Whether you’re here to sharpen your short game or just soak in the panoramic ocean views, Bandon Preserve promises a golf experience that’s both laid-back and deeply rewarding. So, grab your clubs and see why this course is a bucket-list destination for golfers around the world!
