Vail Golf Club
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.

First time playing. Best mountain course to date. Staff and support staff were as pleasant as they could be .
Spectacular venue! Staff was great!
Early in the season but the golf course was in wonderful shape! , greens were slow but smooth and spectacular shape for May in the Rockies. Incredible views everywhere. Wind was up but still had a blast! Highly recommend this course!
Mediocre Besides A Few Holes
Green fees are high due to the course having a Vail address, nothing to do with the quality of the course. There are absolutely a few cool holes but the maintenance is average and the rest of the holes (about 14 of them) are what you'd find at a Denver Muni. I have no idea why anybody would pay to play here when Eagle Vail is the same price and 10x the golf course this place is.
Course in Rough Shape
Greens were aerated, but many holes not filled with sand, so VERY BUMPY. Also, major construction going on and 10th hole closed. Slow pace of play. Overall, dissatisfied even with discount. Problems were not made known!
Vail GC
Nice course. #10 is closed due to construction and a new clubhouse.
Doesn't get much better than this -
Early October for a mountain course is a hit or miss experience. Vail golf course was in excellent shape! It is a very challenging course with a variety of obstacles. The sand traps were well-maintained and soft (we tried them out just for this review of course). The views are incredible no matter where you are in the course! The staff and friendly and professional. The club house was gone and a temporary starter building was in place. I'm sure the food and beverage service will be excellent when completed.
GREAT COURSE
Great layout! We had a great time and paired up with a nice couple from Michigan. The weather was wonderful
Golf bike heaven
The Vail Golf Club might be the only walkable course in the valley. Although I love a good walk, next time I'm renting a golf bike. The piece of land is quite flat, so it would be a nice ride between the Rocky Mountain walls framing the setting. If the highway weren't running alongside much of the back nine, providing so much noise pollution, this course would be an awesome mountain getaway. As it is, it's a nice muni kept in good condition with Gore Creek meandering through several holes. A new clubhouse scheduled to be finished by next fall will be a nice addition.
Views!!
Spectacular views of mountains and Colorado river. This course is well worth the time and cost but beware the wind can be a bugger in the afternoon! A must do while in Vail if you play!
Nice course
Nice course for a town course. Prices are not bad. The only thing is hopefully you are not behind walkers.
first time
always wanted to play this course. it was a great experience and had a great time. next time would like to ride their bike instead of a cart.
Beautiful Mountain Golf Course
As a resident of Illinois I have never seen such a scenic and beautiful setting for a golf course. The course itself looks nice but the mountain backdrop is just phenomenal. Aside from the looks the rest of the course was good to. Moderately challenging but overall fun course with many fun holes. I particularly liked the par 3s with elevated tee boxes. The course was in good shape. Greens were tricky but rolled well. Tee and boxes and fairways were in great shape. Tje staff was nice. They really push for pace of play, and they boast about how they'll have you finish 18 in 4 hrs and 7 min. But even if you play fast don't expect to finish much faster then that because as long as the group ahead of you is keeping is that pace you can't pass them. So we were stuck behind a slower group we couldn't pass. it is expensive but I think worth the price, especially if your on vacation.
Spring conditions
Overall condition of the course was poor. Turf was thin in many areas. Greens were mostly good. Peak season should improve conditioning.
Finally played Vail
Enjoyed the course . Parkland style golf at 8500 feet. Spring conditions in late May , due to altitude and a very wet weather pattern . We were treated very well by the staff . I was one iron longer , even in the colder air. Great views ...good times.
nice course
Very nice, friendly and helpful staff. Well kept despite it being fairly early in the season. If you like being in one of the most scenic areas in the country, during its down time. The week after Memorial Day is the best if the weather is as compliant as it was when I was there. Being up there just before most stores/restaurants close for the season, when its slow, I thought was fantastic, it made being in a scenic place relaxing too.
Early Season Conditions
The course was in good condition for this early in the season. I enjoyed the new green location on the par three 15th which adds about 30 yards to the hole. I hope they keep it there and it isn't just a temporary situation. It was impossible to not enjoy myself when I got such a fantastic deal on Golf Now.
Beautiful course, fantastic staff and service!!
This was my first time playing Vail Golf Club. It was a unique experience playing the course nestled up to the bottom of the Vail ski resort and downtown Vail Village. Every hole offered a new and exciting challenge and photo opportunities. The staff was phenomenal and did everything they could to make sure we were properly taken care of and satisfied with every aspect of our visit. I will absolutely be going back to golf Vail Golf Club again, and recommend anyone else looking for an amazing mountain course to play do the same!
Great day with fall colors
Had a fabulous round of golf on October 4th. The leaves were in full color, the weather was perfect, the course was in great shape and everyone was so nice at the shop. I would recommend this course to anyone. It is absolutely beautiful.
Vail in the fall
Course was in great shape for the near end of the season. Perfect weather and fall colors made for an unforgettable time. Staff was extremely helpful and overall it was a very enjoyable golf experience. Great job guys!
