Great course

Grand Elk was designed with the golfer in mind.
Back tees will challenge the best golfers. The mid tees
give the average golfer a chance to post a good score.
That is if you can keep your eyes on the course and not on the beautiful views around the course.
A must for any golfer who comes to Colo.

Not impressed with staff

When our group got to course we found out they were having a small tournament just going off. We looked up nine fairway no one on green or tee. Looked at 10 tee and green no body in site. We asked to take off on
10 and were told due to the tournament we could not.
Well 5 1/2 hours later we finally got done. The tournament groups were very very slow. The back nine had no water set out and the drink cart had gone home.
I have played there a lot of times. But after Friday I'll be going other places. Two other groups in front of us were not in the tournament and were not happy at all.

First Rate Mountain Course

If your going to play golf in the Colorado mountains The Raven is a must do. From the black tees to the very friendly white tees every hole is a challenge. And once you're done you're ready to go again.

Fun in the wind

I hadn't played Vail for several years and after the round I couldn't come up with a good reason for not
coming back sooner. The new club house is beautiful
the staff was very friendly. There was a mix up on the tee time. But no problem the staff worked it out for me.
If your in the Vail valley and you don't play Vail CC shame on you. You didn't make the most of you visit.

Grand Elk was as good a course as I''ve played
in Colorado. The desig.n and layout were great.
It is the kind of course that makes you think before you hit. Lots of open landing areas if your smart.
Will play again.

Great place to send the day.

Red Hawk is one of my favorite courses in Colorado.
The use of the flowing hills and peaks is great.
Views will try to take your mind off the next shot.
But, that leads to tough lies many in the scrub oak or rough. Pay attention to what the designer had in mind on each hole and you in for the time of your life. There are several holes that could be signature holes but 18 is the best. The lake in front of the green will make you think twice about your second shot..Overall great course and I always look forward to coming back and getting even with the course. LOL...I''m about to think its the indian not the arrows Enjoy..

Think before you hit

Deer Creek is a great thinking man's course.
Your required to pick out best landing area for your approach shots.
Not your average bang away course really enjoyed the round and used all the clubs in the bag.
I will play the course again and recommend to others.

test yourself

Kings deer is set up to allow you to use all the clubs in your bag. The kind of course you need to play couple times to figure out the best approach to each hole. You may find out quickly what they mean by play it forward.
I enjoyed my round and will play again soon.

Great views and fun course to play

Four Mile is a Jim Ing course it has usual rolling fairways and greens that can be very trying if your on the wrong side of a slope. I love playing there it takes me out of the ho hum course designs that so many courses use.. A little far to play everyday but a real treat and well worth the time..

Be ready to walk alot

Staff were great driving range was in good, practice greens get you ready for some of the largest greens I have ever played large greens make for some very long putts. Only negative I had was the cart path only rule..You end up walking as much as if you just walked the course...That's the only thing that will keep me from coming back...It you go be ready to walk a lot..Everyone should play at least once..

The Raven is a great mountain course.

The Raven is my favorite mountain course. If is very fair for the average golfer. However, if you move back to the black tees you better have game. The views are terrific and often take your mind of the shot your about to attempt.
At a must do for anyone who is going to play in the mountains..

The course came thru the winter in great shape..

I was surprised at how good the course was after the winter.
The greens rolled smooth and true as in mid summers form.
The staff were very friendly and when I asked about the course they were able to give me a couple of tips on how to play the course which saved me a couple of strokes.
Tim and the staff are first class.
I will be back...
