In Volume 3 of The Confidential Guide to Golf Courses, Tom Doak published that.

“This must have been a cool club in its early years, when the clubhouse was across the road right on the Columbia River, and many members arrived by boat – and before the take-offs at Portland Airport contributed so much noise. There is a surprising amount of roll in the fairways even though the course is down in the bottom lands next to the river, but the majority of Macan’s interesting greens have been redesigned over time, so that only the par-4 8^th really stands out today.“

Columbia Edgewater Country Club received a score of 5 out of 10 from Tom Doak.
