Bandon Peaks




David McLay Kidd's much anticipated Tetherow Golf Club is now open for play. One early reviewer describes the 7,298 yard Par 72 course as a "...wee bit of Scotland/Ireland...in the middle of Bend, Oregon."

The Scottish-born McLay Kidd designed Bandon Dunes on the Oregon Coast when he was just 27 years old and is also well known for his Castle Course creation at St. Andrews.

"We set out to create something that is truly unique-from the fescue grassing plan...to the grass hollows, rugged features and creative green complexes," he says of Tetherow, which overlooks the Cascade peaks.

*The public has a small window of opportunity to play Tetherow as it has plans to become a private resort with an anticipated 379 homesites.
