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.

Vail Golf
Well maintained golf course. FrIendly and helpful staff. Course is suitable to all skill of golfers.
Overpriced and underconditioned
Greens were very inconsistent, with some hard with others fuzzy and slow. Pace of play was poor,, waited on every hole.
Stunning Mountain Views
Got a "killer" deal on green fees, staff was very friendly and helpful. The course is mostly flat with generous fairway widths. Greens are average sized with smooth surfaces in good condition.
The club rental fee is $55 per set and didn't include any free balls. A small bucket of range balls was $6.
Great round!
Course is in excellent condition. Pace of play was very good, no unreasonable delays. Would highly recommend.
Vail's Best Public Course
The professional people that work here, the driving range, the putting, chipping combine to make this one of the best public golf course in Vail, Valley. I highly recommend it for it's challenging, beautiful holes are many and fun Golf!
Don’t try and bring your son to learn how to play golf
Don’t try and bring your son to learn how to play golf
This golf course is not kid friendly what is dog friendly hopefully they can continue to support a golf with dogs
Did not even let us on
Beautiful even while under repair
Beautiful and lot’s of fun holes under repair were still a challenge
Disappointing
Greens in less than satisfactory condition. Roughs are rediculousy high and need to be lowered. Ladies t boxes too close to senior t boxes, making course too long for average women. Temporary green on # 12 should be closer to green under repair, so this par 5 would play near normal.
Temp greens ruined the round
5 temp greens were a huge disappointment. Closed greens were fine. No explanation why they were closed.
Course under repair, and slow play
There are several greens under replacement with temporary greens and one hole closed. The pace of play was slow and the course Marshall’s could not increase the slow groups pace. Since on time overall, although back nine was 25 min longer than par!, he felt he was not able to do anything. Always two groups waiting to tee off from 11 til the end. The rough was VERY deep and especially around greens. Looks like it hasn’t been mowed in days. Greens were slow but expected at this time of year. Layout on front nine is a bit boring but course is fun.
Excellent course, great staff, and great restaurant
The staff is extremely friendly and accommodating. The course is one of the most challenging and unique in the valley. Short, but you need to hit the fairway because the mature trees will make life difficult if you're playing from the rough. Great restaurant for lunch as well.
