Thinking About Living in Persimmon Country Club?
Get connected with a local real-estate specialist who understands Persimmon Country Club and the surrounding Portland Metro golf market.
Persimmon Country Club is a fully private 18-hole club in Gresham, Multnomah County, designed by noted Pacific Northwest architect Gene 'Bunny' Mason and established in 1993. The par-72, 6,678-yard course requires an initiation fee plus a one-year membership contract, with four named tiers -- Full Golf, Social (non-golf), Executive Golf (for members under 40), and Recreational (limited golf) -- per the club's own membership page.\n\nThe surrounding Persimmon Community is governed by a formally incorporated homeowners association, the Persimmon Country Club Community Homeowners Association, organized under Oregon's Planned Community Act (ORS 94.670); homeowners in the community agree to abide by the association's governing documents at purchase. This is a genuine, formally documented residential-integration structure -- comparable to the pattern that qualified Oakridge Country Club and Willow Creek Country Club in this platform's Salt Lake City Metro (Utah) research, where a formally named/incorporated community HOA anchored to the club, rather than a confirmed bundled-membership arrangement, was the qualifying signal. This research found no evidence that HOA membership includes or requires separate golf club membership; the two operate as administratively distinct organizations under a shared 'Persimmon' identity.
