About
Situated at the base of the Gore Mountain Range in the Rocky Mountains, Vail Golf Club is a mountain course with beautiful scenery provided by Gore Creek, which meanders through the layout, and the White River National Forest that rests adjacent to it. The golf course features flat, tree-lined fairways and medium-sized greens, both of which are well protected by numerous bunkers. The golf course plays through towering trees that demand accuracy. There are also several beaver ponds throughout the golf course that come into play on several holes. In addition to the scenic round, Vail Golf Club also provides practice facilities including a driving range and putting greens.

great fairways Photo submitted by normdealbq2 on 06/12/2013
Enjoyed it, despite greens condition
Professional staff, friendly atmosphere, great restaurant, awesome views...but newly seeded greens are not very playable...slow,, bumpy sanded and sparse. I assume winter kill issues.
Greens
We were on a trip out west and decided to try Vail , not a good thing, we payed full price and were not told about the alternate greens which cut total yardage by over 300 yards
Was hoping to get a discount but no.,
Course was tight but manageable
Beautiful scenery
Beautiful course. Good value when booked thru a discounter . We had a 5th person not golfing. I inquired and was told that she could ride in our cart for $15. We paid and had her ride in our cart. 2/3 thru the round a ranger told us she couldn’t ride in our cart and needed her own. They never told us that. So they let us play. 1 hole later the ranger returned and told
Us that she was sending a separate cart for her. Ok. Then a hike later the cart comes and after we played out tee shots she said we had to let player play thru. So we drove back and then was told never mind. Good lord what a waste of time and drama. They needed to be clear in their communication especially when we paid and did the right thing.
Great course but 8 greens were temporary and we did not know about it.
Opening 6 of the 8 this weekend ( June 11-12)
Friendly staff.
Spectacular scenery.
Keep away
My husband and son played the course with me and we so upset. No one told us about the temporary greens and dug up fairways when we booked. Other golfer that we met were upset and complained with us but they refused to do anything without talking to their boss. Of course we had to leave before we could do so.
I suggest that Golfnow remove them from their list until the construction is done (next year). They should refund all golfers who booked this course without any warning or price adjustment.
NEVER AGAIN
Horrendous conditions
There are EIGHT temporary greens- and no advance notification before you shell out your money. It is very deceiving and unscrupulous.. So, BUYER BEWARE!
The starter is a great guy, friendly and very knowledgeable, but that is where the enjoyment ends. The rest of the experience is beyond disappointing and a complete waste of money and time.
The condition of course is in abysmal. Besides the “temporary greens”, the condition is worse than the worst of municipal courses I have ever seen. What once was a great course, is now a construction zone.
DO NOT BOOK before you determine how many temporary greens are still under construction. Ask for a guarantee of playable holes and condition. Presently, it is a waste of money regardless of what “deal” is offered. It should be reported.
First timer
Enjoyed playing Vail. Even with the temporary greens. I will definitely be back to play again
Course conditions slowly improving
8 temporary greens. Newly seeded greens look great and will be available in 1-2 weeks. Otherwise course in good shape
It will be great!
Played this course early in the year, so had to deal with green aerations. They are replacing the grass on 7 greens this year, so there were temporary greens in the fairway. They weren't much more than shorter fairway grass so it was hard to put.. Despite all of this, we had a lot of fun and enjoyed the challenge of the holes. Very beautiful and picturesque! We took several group shots. The food is a little overpriced. A turkey sandwich, chips and a gatorade was $18.
