Let's keep this simple. You MUST play this original, gorgeous, and challenging course. The experience begins near the base of the pink and red sandstone of the Colorado National Monument, where you will feel like you're playing at the bottom of the Grand Canyon. The course is as original as it is scenic. Take the 300 yard par 4 14th, the tee shot must be threaded between two small buttes. If you're successful, you must pitch the ball onto a green tucked in inside a canyon some 90 degrees to the right. Flub the tee shot and you'll have to approach the green blind. Experts only.
$$ (Moderately Priced)Golf Course Statistics: 7,007 yards, par 72, slope 135 - designed by Jim Engh (2001). This is a public course.
Course architect Jim Engh took full advantage of the desert landscape by creating a course that incorporates many elevation changes. Nine of the holes play downhill from elevated tees. Wherever possible, native terrain and plants were left untouched. Many areas of the course incorporate large rock outcroppings and many marvelous views of the Grand Mesa, the Bookcliffs and most notably, the Colorado National Monument.
