Rating 70.3

The golf course at the Western Skies Golf Club has a traditional layout with many different challenges and beautiful views. Surrounded by picturesque mountains and valleys, the course offers a taste of the countryside, which is further enhanced by the many aged Mesquite and Pinon trees sprinkled throughout. It features tree-lined fairways with generous landing areas and tricky water hazards. Two notable holes are the 4th and 7th holes, both par 3s. Although it is a modest 186 yards, the 4th hole requires a carry over water to a heavily bunkered green. Western Skies Golf Club's 18th hole is a drivable par four with water along the right side, making this an exciting finishing hole.

Great day of golf

Very good course for the money ..... friendly staff, nice facilities. Fairways and greens were in perfect condition just a little wet from over watering but good all the same. Would definitely recommend this course.

Great Course, Great Staff!

Western Skies is always in great shape, with wide fairways, big flat greens and beautiful grass. But it's the people there that make it special to me. Especially Jim, Kyle, Parker, Matt, Maddie and Payse. They treat me like family. Five Stars for Western Skies Golf Club!

Not Too Shabby

Western Skies is your basic neighborhood course. Nothing special, but usually solid. As a local, every course is too expensive this time of year, but adjusting for that, it’s as good as you’ll get for the price in town. To get anything cheaper, you’d have to book one of the municipal courses early or be willing to drive 45 min or more. I’ve played here probably 20 times over the past 15 year’s and was in as good a shape as I’ve seen it. Pace was great. About 4 hours.

always a good bet

I have played Western Skies several times. The staff are great and it is very well run. Ten minute tee time intervals are great. Course is in good shape. Plenty of new sand in the bunkers was nice. Its a great deal at $67.00 as the price of golf in the Valley is getting to be stupid.

Western Skies

This course is awesome. Very nice and beginner friendly. The pace of play was horrendous. This isn’t the fault of the course staff, it’s just due to inconsiderate golfers. My only complaint is the pace of play. Everything is awesome. Nice greens, nice fairway grass, layout is nice.
