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.

Vail

Course in great shape & fun to play.

Single golfers were paired up with other singles in carts and not allowed to ride single, although this was not advertised.

Our foursome finished in 4 hrs 15 minutes but got blasted by a ranger on back nine for slow play & holding up twosome behind us. Unreal !!

Vail Golf Club

Vail Golf Club is an amazing mountain course to play. It exceed my expectations by far! The views are absolutely incredible. The course was in great shape and the greens were as close to perfect as it comes. Except that one greens keeper who had a bad day and put the hole on top of a mountain on #10 or #11, haha. I’ve played courses in Summit County, the valley and Grand County, but this course is my overall pick now. I’ll definitely be coming back!

Beautiful mountain views!

I am getting back into golf after growing up playing on the east coast. This club was beautiful, well maintained, and a great value for the price. Everyone was extremely friendly and I had a wonderful time playing.
