Cost
Golf now cost was $48 per person. This is a bargain. Normal price is closer to $180. At that price it is expensive for the average golfer. It is a tough course and at that price not worth ir..

The normal fees are high for the course. It is not an easy course. If you don't mind spending a lot on green fees definitely play. The course is beautiful.

Fun challenging course.
Pace of play is always questionable. Front 9 moves along reasonably well. Back 9 always agonizingly slow. Makes me question playing 18. May need to stick to just 9 holes. Beautiful course!

8001 elevation fun !
Sierra star is an amazing layout very challenging course.
The Ball can go much further because of elevation makes it challenge but also fun at the same time. The course was in much better shape this year than in 2024.. The greens were quite nice and rolled true..

Winter is not helping this course
Great layout but greens rough. Winter is hard on golf courses at 8,000 feet! 2 years ago much better conditions.It would be appropriate to reduce rates when course conditions are poor.
