This typical Tom Fazio design is located at the base of Buttermilk Mountain. Fazio designed the course alongside the Maroon Creek, and it is surrounded by beautiful mountain vistas. The management considers this a world-class golf facility during the summer months, and a world-class snow skiing facility during the winter months. "Golf Digest" selected the course 3rd in the category of "Best New Private Courses" for 1996, and as the 3rd "Best in State" course for 1997-98. The fairways are wide, but there is strategic bunkering throughout its design, and the greens are large and heavily contoured. In addition, there is an assortment of creeks and ponds that come into play on twelve holes. The first four holes play over a former working ranch bordered by native sagebrush. The remaining fourteen holes meander through alpine meadows, climb up a canyon wall and play alongside Maroon Creek and a ravine. Of the several signature holes on the course, the most difficult is hole #7, a 196-yard, par 3, requiring a tee shot from an elevated tee to a well-sloped green protected by a creek on the left.

reviewer: Williams from Dallas, TX USA

This is the best layout in the mountains for my money. If you can get on you will love it -- Fazio, views of 3 ski runs, no crowds, caddies from Augusta, perfect greens and 300 days of sunshine/year. Don't miss the 12th hole -- a par 4 that looks simple at the tee box but stomps on your 2nd shot. I saw a black bear on #9 and several deer on #15.

Antelope Hills Golf Course
"Diamond in the rough"
In July, 2003 I had the chance to try out this little 9 hole course and I was very satisfied with my experience. The fairways were in tremendous condition and the greens offered a perfect putting surface. We could hear the coyotes howling as we started our round in the morning. The peacefulness alone (my wife and I were the only people on the course) was worth the price of green fees. The green fees, by the way, are very reasonable. The scenery from the first tee is spectacular, especially if you glance to the west. If you're looking for a tough challenge, this isn't the course for you. The course is not too challenging but is a perfect stop if you're a beginner or coming out of Yellowstone and want to just relax on the course. It's very wide open so you shouldn't lose any balls. My wife is a beginner golfer and had a very enjoyable round. Everything is well-maintained and we found the staff to be courteous and friendly. I plan on returning to play this course again and I highly recommend you give it a try. Definitely a course to walk (not ride) to get the full enjoyment.

"pay for private country club but it is public"
So So course. I was shocked to find out that the dinning is open to the public because of their alcohol lic. I mean, why pay for membership when anyone can come off the street and eat/drink at your club.

The water really comes into play on windy days. The greens are a challenge.

Vince's Sport Center Par 3 Golf Course
"Vince's Sport Center practice golf course"
Vince's Sport Center has a great par-3 golf course. It was made to challenge the average golfer on putting, chipping, and long iron swings. This course has a pond on the fifth hole, nice greens, and sand bunkers. This is a practice course that all golfers should try.
