About the course
This course is located in a natural setting on a former ranch. Relics of its past are located throughout the property, including 100-year-old farm machinery resting in random places on the course. It lies at the base of the 13,000-foot Mt. Sopris, which presents a stunning backdrop. The course begins with a tricky 408-yard, par 4, requiring a tee shot that must carry approximately 180 yards over the Crystal River. The back nine begins with a 434-yard, par 4, which calls for a difficult tee shot that must travel over the Crystal River and slightly uphill. Anything low or left will find the large cottonwoods or the river. The approach is to a green protected by bunkers in the front and left sides, and the river on the right. Three other holes also play over the Crystal River.
