| Sheraton Steamboat Golf Club & Resort -- Dutch |
| Review by: MJ "Dutch" Elting |
A tremendous couse in a beautiful mountain setting, especially in September and October when in full fall foliage, the afternoon temperatures in the low 70's and the skies so blue the horizon lines become razor sharp. The back nine challange you with mountain streams, blind doglegs, an occasional buck jumping from a creek bed and or lofty tee boxes daring you to choose a loftier iron for dropping it between the aspens and the traps....
Not too many courses in the world offer better views, thinner air for longer drives, or nicer people to pamper your needs. July through mid October is prime... take plenty of time and the closest of friends, I guarantee you a memorable experiance and a challanging round! |

Watch out for this little course. Men’s tees that are set at 6200/6600 yards and a mile-high above sea level = no problem, right? This is target golf at it’s finest. You may complain about the native grasses that make up the heavy rough until you realize it stopped your ball from going out of bounds. O.B. lines BOTH sides of every hole with the exceptions of 1, 2, 10, and 11. (These holes only have O.B. for those with a slice.) Take note: greens break AWAY from the Rocky Mountains, which can be quite deceiving. While hurt by the Colorado drought of 2002, the course has made a beautiful rebound. This is a private club that welcomes “try-it-out” rounds $55-75. The course is set in a beautiful setting with a laid back Colorado atmosphere. |
