Vail Golf Club

Beautiful course. Improving par 3, but accommodated the skipped hole with a temporary par 3. Staff is wonderful and the food in the restaurant was fabulous!
Nice driving range and putting green.

Great day and course

Just an excellent experience. Kudos to Deacon who shared the back 9 with me. He’s a Ranger for the course who had the day off and rep’d the club well. Great staff and accommodations.

Awesome scenery

Didn't know what to expect and being from out of town I had to rent clubs. All in was $132 for cart ,clubs,and 18 holes. Course was in perfect condition. Played with a couple of local mountain men and they were a blast. Even gave me a ride back to the hotel. Great day and great golf course!!

Friendly staff and great pace of play

Pace of play is great - we finished 18 in 4.hours. Very friendly staff, especially the starter, Mark Scott. Some of the greens were a little rough but overall the course is in good shape. Really enjoyed golfing here.

Walked

Greens were poor

Several greens looked like they were just aerated within the last couple of days, and were almost unplayable. Temporary green was used on one hole, and played very short. Not a very good experience, however I did find a cheap tee time.
