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.

Nice course in pretty good shape.

Fun day at Western Skies!

Fairways and greens actually had good grass and played well.

Cart girl visited a couple of times and was very nice .

It's great to see a course that has this kind of care as many others are allowing the fairways to dry up..

Greens were tooling true at about a medium speed and were smooth.

FIVE STARS! (And yes, I know what that means!)

I always give Western Skies 5 stars. Recently a golf-snob commented that I don't know what a 5 star course is. Western Skies staff treats me like family, and they NEVER act like snobs! I had a blast, played in 3 1/2 hours, and I paid $36. THAT'S what five stars is to me!

Golf Outing on Mother's Day

Had a great day out at Western Skies! The greens were in excellent shape—smooth, consistent, and well-maintained. The putting area and driving range were also in great condition, making it easy to warm up before the round. The pace of play was spot on, with just the right amount of spacing between groups to keep things moving without feeling rushed. Overall, a very enjoyable experience—looking forward to coming back soon!

FIVE STARS! Fast Play, Great Course, Super Nice Staff!

I played Western Skies in 2 hours and 55 minutes. (It wasn't busy because of an iffy forecast) This course is always in near-perfect condition, and the setup allows for good scoring, even for me! The staff there always make me feel welcome and valued. That's a big reason that I give them FIVE STARS!

FIVE STARS AS ALWAYS FOR WESTERN SKIES

The course is always in near-perfect shape, and the layout makes it easy to score low. But it's the super-friendly staff that puts Western Skies above the rest! You'll enjoy the course and the people! FIVE STARS!

Played here this week. I think you need to actually play a 5 star course to see what a 5 star course is actually like. This course isn't one!

Course in Great Shape! Staff Really Friendly. 5 Stars.

Five Stars for Western Skies again! This course is in near-perfect shape 12 months a year. Wide fairways and big flat greens make it a fun place to score for all skill levels. The staff there is always super nice, and the pace of play is always at or below 4 hours. Five Stars!
