Booked 2 players on a hot deal for Monday late afternoon. Course is fun but I recommend playing the right tees for your skill level. Look at the slope rating, not the yardage. Typical mountain target golf, but still very playable as many times you can get away with less than perfect shots. Course condition was very good. Pace was a little slow. Our 4some finished in 4:30 and waited on most tee boxes. I didn't realize you needed to valet your car at the resort, then walk through the lobby to get to the pro shop.
Play The Front 9 For The Views, The Back to score
Go in knowing that the front 9 is going to be silly, video game golf and just enjoy the views. I did & I enjoyed it.
The back 9 is considerably easier.
Spectacular views
Course was tight the front
Not much signage
The cart path was oft times just a dirt trail
The elevation changes were both a challenge and fun
Great spot!
One of the coolest layouts you can play. Tip: leave your driver in the bag. Great views, challenging shots, tons of fun!
George our views from every tee box
This was a true mountain course. Insane views and elevated greens looked like you were landing the ball on the peak of the mountain. Well worth a round.
Novelty Course
313 yrd par 5 due to elevation explains why we feel it is a novelty course. If you are more into the views and something unique, this course might be for you. More of a typical/traditional golfer that is a bit more serious? Not worth trying as there are many blind shots, where luck will play a large role in your score. Bring your golf balls…or your “A” game and hope for some luck.
Very disay
Met at the valet who was less than friendly when I asked about handicap access..
The pro shop personnel along with the starter were very friendly. The course was very hard and the greens were even harder…seems to the average golfer…it would have one or the other..hard fairways or tuff greens but not both…
Epic
Challenging but fair course if you have some control of the ball. You’ll lose some golf balls but the course is so pure. Really great views.
You will only play once
While traveling I like to use golf advisor for information for courses in the areas that I’m traveling too. Unfortunately the reviews were not up to date. We were staying pretty close to this course, so seeing a few holes when driving by I was excited to play the course. I will start by saying the course is very quirky. It’s lay-out has seven par 3’s, six par 4’s and five par 5’s which was fine, but some of the holes had blind spots and it is basically wrapped around a mountain. The greens are very unfair. Way to many undulations. It would be so much better if the greens were falter. I had asked on several holes, where are the clowns mouths. The course is in good shape and many beautiful views. Only complaint were the greens were beat up, but it is a resort course and so many people don’t repair there divots
Fun and beautiful but difficult and a bit gimmicky
This course is a lot of fun and I'd recommend it to just about anybody. For an intermediate golfer like myself, it was difficult and I lost a handful of balls. The positives are a really well-maintained course with maybe the most unique course layout I've seen. Nearly every hole has a gorgeous view either from the mountains down to the valley or with the mountains as a backdrop. I think the designer did a good job considering the course was likely an afterthought...it's sandwiched between chair lifts and luxury condominium communities. The negatives are its unique layout also means it's pretty awkward. The turn from 9 to 10 occurs at just about the farthest point from the "clubhouse." Parentheses because there's no actual clubhouse. There's a pro shop sandwiched between retail shops of the ski resort where you can pick up some things and pay for your round. My least favorite part of the course is the lack of a driving range. They set up two adjacent pads hitting into nets so you can warm up but that's all you're doing is warming up because you can't see how you're hitting them. Also, don't wash your car beforehand because the parking lot and road leading up are dirt and dusty.
A waste of time and money
Pace of play was miserable, Twice we called to request a marshal to speak to the groups in front of us to quit taking multiple mulligans, taking five minutes to look for lost golf balls, and five putting on greens. Two members of the foursome in front of us pulled beers from their bags on about half the holes, the other two, a man and woman, shared one set of clubs. Two phones calls to Justin in the pro shop were for naught, he told us over five hours was normal. One in the group behind us had on a faded t-shirt, advertising a bar. Twice he hit into my wife, once flying the ball over head. A marshal should have been sent by Justin to have the conversation with him, not me. The course has no respect for the game of golf, they are only interested in collecting green fees. DO NOT PLAY THIS COURSE, Park City Muni is much better.
Not worth $100
There are better options in the Park City area.
$100 per player gets you no driving range, no short game practice area, no beverage amenities other than a shack at the 5th hole, no ice for the cart cooler, no cart GPS, no pro shop.
The course is an afterthought addition to the resort.
Cart path is paved and dirt. Weaving in and out of vehicle traffic.
Really overpriced and not worth a visit.
Beautiful course, stunning views, hard to score
Great views, beautiful course and well maintained. There is no driving range and the fairways are super tight given the limited real estate available. Overall really enjoyed the scenery, just don't expect to find the course forgiving
Beautiful Scenery
The scenery is outstanding. The layout of the course is above average, fitting well into the natural terrain. The greens kept my rating from being 4 stars. The greens were very hard, not holding approach shots well. Wedges struck well would roll 15 to 20 feet after landing. The undulations and multi-tiers of the greens were too difficult for the average golfer.
Marshaling would assist in making the play and pace of play more enjoyable. The foursome of men in front of us had a clear hole ahead of them multiple times, but refused to allow us to play through or made not attempt to pick up pace of play. One member of the foursome, even though two foursomes were waiting on the tee box insisted upon practice putting if he missed a putt. (Breach of Rule 5.6)
Absolutely beautiful
Beautiful course with a challenging layout. We were immediately met with a cart in the parking lot. Then we were given tips about the course and layout since it was our first time there. Beautiful scenery throughout the entire course. Only hiccup we had was the sprinklers were turned on when we got to the 10th hole.
Great fun
A mountain golf course that is very doable for an average player . Beautiful views from every hole.
