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 Course, Great People!

The temps are high and the scores are low! (I broke par for the 1st time ever!) The course is always in great shape, and the staff always treats me better than I deserve! And you can bring your own hydration! Richard R.

Too slow

We stopped at the turn after the front 9 took close to 3 hours. There was no course marshall to keep slow groups moving, and such groups lacked awareness to let others play through.

This forgiving course is always in great shape, (not counting the wet bunkers). The staff are really super nice! Stay out of those bunkers though! Richard R.

The Skies

Staff is great, course is fun and challenging and we call it our home course. My son loves going here to play so we make it a regular thing (he's 12). Great equipment, value and conditions. The restaurant (Mulligan's) is great also.

Great Course, Great People

Western Skies is a forgiving course with mostly wide fairways, short par 4's and big flat greens. This year, almost all their bunkers have wet sand, though. (This wasn't true in the past.) The staff are great people that put up with me! Richard R.

Great course to play

Beautiful course! There were a few spots where it was a little muddy. Wasn’t marked and I couldn’t tell till I stepped in it. Other than that it was nice. Pace was relaxed and enjoyable. Had a great time!
