Elkhorn Golf Course
Frequently Asked Questions
When's the best time of year to play Elkhorn Golf Course for ideal conditions?
You'll find Elkhorn truly shines in the shoulder seasons. We recommend late April through early June, or September into October, when the temperatures are perfect and the course is in peak condition. Summer can get quite hot, making the back nine a real slog, so plan accordingly.
How challenging is Elkhorn, especially for a mid-handicapper?
Elkhorn is a fair test, but don't underestimate its subtle elevation changes and the tricky, undulating greens. You'll find the par-3s particularly demanding, often requiring precise club selection over water or deep bunkers. Bring your A-game with your short irons, as they'll be crucial here.
What are the must-see holes or unique features at Elkhorn Golf Course?
You absolutely have to experience the 14th hole, a dramatic par-5 with a split fairway that offers a real risk-reward decision off the tee. The views from the elevated 7th tee box are also spectacular, giving you a panoramic look at the surrounding landscape. It's a truly memorable stretch of golf you won't forget.
What should I expect to pay for a round at Elkhorn, and is it worth it?
Green fees at Elkhorn are generally in the mid-range for a course of this caliber, often around $75-$120 depending on the season and time of day. We think it's excellent value; the course conditioning and unique layout easily justify the price, especially if you catch one of their twilight deals. You're getting a premium experience without breaking the bank.
How busy does Elkhorn get, and how far in advance should I book a tee time?
Elkhorn can get quite busy, especially on weekend mornings and during peak season. To avoid a slow round, we strongly advise booking your tee time at least 2-3 weeks in advance, particularly if you're aiming for a prime slot. Weekday afternoons are usually more relaxed and offer a better pace of play.
