Panoramic vistas and clear, fresh mountain air at an elevation of 7,400 feet, provide a beautiful setting to enjoy the summer and have an enjoyable golf experience!

Please don’t ignore Frost Delays:
When frosted grass is walked, jogged, or driven on, immediate damage is not seen until about 48-72 hours after the damage has occurred, causing the grass to turn brown and die. The destruction of the grass, especially on the putting surface, opens the door for the growth of weeds and disease, thus compounding the issue and further devolving the overall condition of the course.
As the community enjoys the golf course area, whether playing golf, jogging, walking their dog, etc., please be aware of frost on the golf course. When the grass is frosted, please remain on the cart paths that connect throughout the entire golf course.
