The golf course at the Western Skies Golf Club has a traditional layout with many different challenges and beautiful views. Surrounded by picturesque mountains and valleys, the course offers a taste of the countryside, which is further enhanced by the many aged Mesquite and Pinon trees sprinkled throughout. It features tree-lined fairways with generous landing areas and tricky water hazards. Two notable holes are the 4th and 7th holes, both par 3s. Although it is a modest 186 yards, the 4th hole requires a carry over water to a heavily bunkered green. Western Skies Golf Club's 18th hole is a drivable par four with water along the right side, making this an exciting finishing hole.

not what it used to be

Other than the greens, course conditions have taken a turn for the worst. grass around the bunkers overgrown. countless bare spots throughout the course. needs much green keepers attention to get it back to where it needs to be.

Western Skies…. Good golf for the money

I’d recommend WS for a round of golf for the price. It’s a decent course with decent greens for the money. If your looking for a big challenge this isn’t it but for a 14 handycaper like me it’s perfect to refining your skills.

Decent but very slow play

Good course, 40 minutes behind schedule

No marshal and there was a group of 8 playing

Also don’t see the beverage cart on the back 9, to hot to be without a drink

Soft greens, beautiful day

Love this course. Every green held nice. We were shooting for the Flags on every hole. Putting was very true and smooth. Bunkers had great sand. 3:53 hour round. $84 and worth it.

Nice course, no drinking water on course

Nice course, but no drinking water or ball washers on the course is crazy. Someone is going to get heat stroke on the course

Decent Course

This course was pretty good. Average conditions with not so spectacular views. Some road noise band pace was a bit slow.

Western scam

Payed for on golf now. Got to course, and they charged me again twice of what it cost through GolfNow.. I just went back today and got it straightened out with their manager Kyle. He refunded the extra charge and said oh, this will be an learning opportunity for my staff.. he didn’t offer any compensation for the three hours of time I spent trying to straighten it out. they do not seem concerned about taking care of their clients. It seems they have plenty of business and therefore mine didn’t matter will not be going back. Do not recommend plenty of courses to go to don’t need western skies as they seem they don’t need me.
