Sorry, you’re too late. The @NameOurCourse Sweepstakes ended at midnight Pacific time on March 1 and is no longer taking entries. The Name Announcement is expected to be on or around April 1 after we’ve sorted through the more than 1,000 entries. But you can still read all about the project below, and please follow @NameOurCourse on Twitter and Instagram for all the latest news as the project heads toward a July 2021 opening of 10 of the 18 holes. And if you want some quality podcast content, check out the “Talking GolfGetaways” episode with golf designer Dan Hixson for more about how the course is coming to life in Roseburg, Oregon.

That’s right, what would you do if you could play a golf course pretty much anytime, for the rest of your life, for free? Well, that’s the idea behind the Untitled Roseburg Golf Project’s Name Our Course Sweepstakes. If the project ownership team chooses your name suggestion, you could win a Lifetime Pass to the new Dan Hixson-designed golf course just off Interstate 5 in Roseburg, Oregon.

It’s really that simple. Using the form below, submit a golf course name that doesn’t already exist elsewhere in the world, and you’re entered to win. And as an added bonus, the Roseburg Golf Project is also entering all Sweepstakes participants plus anyone who follows the @NameOurCourse social-media accounts on Twitter and Instagram into a drawing for a two-day unlimited golf sneak peek of the 10 holes opening this summer. So read the description and official rules and start thinking about what this golf course should be named. Only one submission is allowed per person, so choose your name carefully.

THE PROJECT

The latest creation from golf-course designer Dan Hixson (Silvies Valley Ranch, Wine Valley, Bandon Crossings) is currently under construction and grow-in on a mined-out sand-and-gravel operation alongside the South Umpqua River in Roseburg, Oregon – just off Interstate 5 not far from where most people turn off to head west toward Bandon and the coast. With 10 holes opening in Summer 2021, Hixson has built a highly walkable routing that rolls through the property dotted by large ponds left over from mining excavation. Because it is the site of a longtime gravel mine, the project has a decidedly industrial yet family-owned feel (like the mine itself). The remaining eight holes are expected to open in Summer 2022. The golf course is planned as the centerpiece of a larger boutique resort that will offer tiny-house accommodations and host travelers with recreational vehicles. For more glimpses of the property, follow the @NameOurCourse social-media accounts on Twitter and Instagram.

This Sweepstakes is Now Closed. All Entries Must Have Been Received No Later than Midnight Pacific Time on March 1, 2021. See below for official Rules, Terms and Conditions. Any questions can be directed by e-mail to the Administrator at roseburg(at)mashiemania.com.

Clicking "Enter Sweepstakes" also gives the Untitled Roseburg Golf Project permission to add you to our e-mail list for updates, prizes, special offers and more.

We believe in personal security.
