Canyon at Mountain Dell Golf Course
Rating Snapshot
About
The Canyon at Mountain Dell Golf Course features 13 of the original 18 holes at Mountain Dell and five new holes rolling up the eastern canyon, carved out of the natural oak brush and rose thickets.
Considered by many to be the most beautiful public golf course in Salt Lake City, Mountain Dell is nestled in Parley's Canyon. It offers two challenging 18-hole courses, the Lake Course and the Canyon Course, both of which traverse mountainous terrain.
Players on the Canyon Course with early-morning or early-evening tee times may see deer, elk, moose, eagles, hawks, badgers, squirrels, and an occasional cougar. The Canyon course stretches up the eastern mountain from the clubhouse about four miles before looping back, so motorized golf cars are recommended.
Canyon, designed by William Bell Jr. and opened in 1962, measures 6.787 yards from the black tees. Par is 72 for men and 73 for women.

Good course, much better than Lake course
Canyon course has better holes, better views, better scenery, and overall is the much better of the 2 courses at Mountain Dell. Don't bother playing Lake course, just go Canyon. A few holes can be challenging on the back nine, but still a fun course.
Course Review
It's too bad they won't fix this course up. The cart paths are in need of repair, the clubhouse looks like it's going to fall over. It could be a great course if they'd take care of it better
