Croquet Courts & Lawn Bowling Greens - The Resort at The Mountain boasts the only resort regulation croquet courts and lawn bowling greens not only in Oregon, but in the entire Northwest, offering spectacular views of forests and mountains. They cater to every level of player from beginning to professional, and provide hours of vacation fun and entertainment for couples, families, and corporate groups.

Both regulation championship croquet courts have laser flat surfaces similar to golf greens, providing a much different experience from "Backyard Croquet", which is the most widely known form of croquet. Court time, including instruction and equipment rental, are available by the hour for both croquet and lawn bowling through The Resort's Recreation Department.

Basketball Hoop (located near 18-Hole Putting Course)

18-Hole Putting Course (The Greens) - There are two types of golfers. The serious, into-it type. And the not-so-serious, fun-loving type. This activity speaks to the latter not the former. Minimal sporting skills and minimal time are required! Come play the lighted 18-hole putting course (The Greens), located near the Croquet & Lawn Bowling areas and next to the bon fire pit and volleyball area. Ideally suited for solo or family fun or even a friendly competition, The Greens features natural turf (the same variety as The Courses) with fescue grasses planted between the 18 distinctive holes. Set within the natural beauty of The Resort grounds, par is attainable (but who cares?), and fun is guaranteed. BTW, The Greens 'fee' for Resort guests is included in the daily Resort Fee. The Greens' plays 418 yards "out" and 358 yards "in." The longest hole is #7 -- whose distance is 73 yards; the shortest hole is #5 which measures a mere 23 yards! The Greens is open daily for play 7 AM to 7 PM.

Groups may book The Greens for a dedicated on-site activity for $250 for 2 hours. And non-resort guests may also play The Greens. Those fees are $8 for adults and $5 for kids.
