Built in 1931, Broadmoor GC is an old, quirky layout bordering the Portland Airport. It starts off with a drivable par 4 with 3 par 3s and 3 par 5s on the front nine. The back nine has just 1 par 3 and 1 par 5. There is a wide variety of par 4s on the course. Several holes have approach shots played severely uphill to shallow greens. Several are short and straight-away. And several are very demanding due to length or trees. The rates are very affordable, but the conditions can be spotty at times.

The course hosted the 2011 Oregon Amateur Public Links event. The greens were lightning fast for the event, but that's not normally the case. There might be better courses to play in the area, but Broadmoor offers a no-frills golf experience and it's usually not too crowded. Proximity to the airport means you will likely see/hear planes buzzing overhead. Be aware that there is no driving range at the course.
