Frequently Asked Questions

How does playing at The Golf Club at Devils Tower compare to other courses with scenic backdrops?

This course isn't just "scenic" - it's an immersive experience with Devils Tower looming over nearly every shot. You'll find yourself pausing to take in the sheer scale of the monument, which truly sets it apart from any other mountain or desert course. It's a constant, awe-inspiring presence that makes every hole memorable.

What's the best time of year to play The Golf Club at Devils Tower for ideal conditions?

We highly recommend late spring (May-June) or early fall (September-early October) for the best experience. The summer can get quite hot, and the winds can pick up significantly, making an already challenging course even tougher. Plus, the shoulder seasons offer stunning colors and fewer crowds.

Is The Golf Club at Devils Tower a challenging course, and what kind of golfer will enjoy it most?

Absolutely, this Arnold Palmer design offers a robust challenge, especially if the Wyoming winds decide to join your round. You'll need precision off the tee and a good short game to navigate the elevation changes and strategically placed bunkers. It's a fantastic test for mid-to-low handicappers, but higher handicappers will still enjoy the views and unique layout if they bring extra balls.

What should I know about getting to The Golf Club at Devils Tower and what else is there to do nearby?

The course is a bit off the beaten path, about an hour from Gillette or Rapid City, so plan your travel accordingly - a rental car is essential. Beyond golf, you absolutely must visit Devils Tower National Monument for hiking and exploring; it's literally next door. You're also on the edge of the Black Hills, offering plenty of other outdoor adventures.

What's the overall vibe and value like at The Golf Club at Devils Tower?

You'll find a relaxed, welcoming atmosphere here, despite the championship-level golf. It feels like a true escape, where the focus is on the game and the incredible natural surroundings. While not a budget course, the green fees offer excellent value for an Arnold Palmer design in such a unique, iconic location, making it a worthwhile splurge for any golf trip.
