The History and Evolution of Lewis River
Lewis River Golf Course opened for business in 1967. The course started out as a 9-hole facility opening all 18-holes in 1969. Since then, the course has experienced many changes. A flood in 1996 destroyed six of the nine holes on the back side. The holes were completely rebuilt adding new and challenging changes. Between 1996 and 2000 three of the holes on the front nine were also rebuilt adding distance and beauty to the already scenic setting.
In September of 2000 a fire destroyed the original golf shop and restaurant, creating the need for a new clubhouse. The new facility, completed and opened in August of 2001, was constructed using a rustic NW theme which features log, river rock and hand forged iron accents thoughout. The new clubhouse hosts golfers and special events in the North Fork Grille and adjoining riverside patio on the ground floor, and in the second floor Great Room overlooking the river, golf course, and patio below. These diverse event sites make Lewis River Golf Course a perfect choice for special events of all kinds from corporate outings and workshops to reunions, banquets, weddings and receptions.
Lewis River Golf's management philosophy is one of continuous investment. This has led to the many improvements of the past and will continue to provide new and exciting changes to keep the Lewis River experience fresh for years to come.
