Why we love golf in the fall

Fall can be the very best time for a round at Tetherow’s golf course, which is currently ranked No. 57 on Golf Digest’s List of America’s Top 100. Thanks to Tetherow’s talented golf course maintenance team, Tetherow is in peak condition. And the best tee times are often easier to land. By any measure, pristine greens and fewer crowds make for a coveted late-season golf round.

What can you look forward to with a fall round at Tetherow?

Mild Weather: Fall in Central Oregon’s High Desert is typically sunny, mild, and comfortable, characterized by crisp air and temperatures that will often touch 70 degrees well into October. It all makes for pleasant golfing conditions.

Scenic Views: The leaves begin to change in September, offering a gorgeous contrast with the course itself. Many of Central Oregon’s golf courses are located in areas with trees that change color during the fall. But Tetherow’s golf course is particularly vibrant. The vivid Rabbitbrush blooms with autumn colors and the fescue grasses turn golden against the green fairways. These create stunning views and enhance the overall golfing experience.

Less Crowded: Golf courses tend to be less crowded in the fall compared to peak summer months.

Course Conditions: The mild fall weather in Central Oregon is perfect for turf to thrive. The cooler temperatures and occasional rain lead to healthy fairways and greens, providing an optimal playing surface.

Golf Apparel: Fall fashion often includes comfortable golf attire like sweaters and jackets that can enhance both your comfort and style on the course. And cute hats!

The Fall Challenge: Some golfers enjoy the challenge of playing in changing conditions, such as varying wind patterns and cooler temperatures. Those conditions are perfect for Tetherow’s Scottish Heatland-style design.

Off-Peak Rates: Some golf courses offer lower rates during the fall as they move away from the peak golf season. Tetherow’s rates adjust for autumn pricing in October and remember that all Tetherow lodging guests receive special rates on the course.

Relaxing Atmosphere: Fall’s tranquility and the quieter ambiance on the course can make for a peaceful and enjoyable golfing experience.
