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.

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.

Not ready yet

I’ve played Vail golf club before, and while it’s not the best course in the area, it’s certainly close to Vail. They had 6!! temporary greens(1/3 of the greens). The regular greens weren’t much better than the temporary greens. I’d suggest waiting at least 3 weeks before playing this course. Lots of other options within 30-40 minute drive.

Great experience

Top notch staff-very friendly, knowledgeable, helpful. The course is absolutely beautiful and with the exception of the temporary greens (6), the course was immaculate. Multiple tee boxes allows for play by any level of golfer. Pace of play was excellent (because it is closely monitored). Good driving range and other practice facilities. A must for any serious golfer in the Vail area.
