Chena Bend Golf Course
About Chena Bend Golf Course
Chena Bend Golf Course is set on Fort Wainwright in Alaska, alongside the Chena River, and the course and its clubhouse take advantage of that riverside setting. The layout mixes a variety of par lengths and presents a range of obstacles across its holes.
Although located on a military installation, the course is open to civilians who obtain a recreational pass, which covers the season. Applicants must present photo identification and proof of residence, and are processed through the installation's Visitor Center; minors need to be accompanied by a parent or an authorized escort who also meets the pass requirements.
