Beaver Creek Golf Club

Frequently Asked Questions

How does the high altitude at Beaver Creek Golf Club impact your game?

You'll definitely notice the thin air here; your ball will fly further, often 10-15% more than at sea level. We recommend taking one less club than usual and trusting that extra carry, but be mindful of the greens - they can play firm and fast. It's a fun challenge, but don't forget to hydrate throughout your round.

What are the must-see holes or best views at Beaver Creek Golf Club?

The back nine truly shines with its dramatic elevation changes and stunning mountain backdrops. Keep an eye out for the par-3 13th, where you'll hit over a ravine to a green framed by towering pines - it's a postcard shot. The views from the 15th tee box, looking down the valley towards the resort, are also absolutely breathtaking.

When is the ideal time of year to experience Beaver Creek Golf Club?

We highly recommend visiting in late summer, typically August through early September. The weather is consistently perfect, the course is in peak condition, and the surrounding aspens are just starting to hint at their fall colors, making for an unforgettable round. Early season can be a bit wet, and late fall gets chilly fast.

Is Beaver Creek Golf Club a walkable course, or should I plan on taking a cart?

While you *can* walk it, we strongly advise taking a cart due to the significant elevation changes and distances between some holes. You'll want to conserve your energy for the challenging shots and truly enjoy the scenery without feeling exhausted. Plus, the views from the cart paths are part of the experience.

Is the premium green fee at Beaver Creek Golf Club truly worth it for the experience?

Absolutely, if you appreciate pristine conditions, incredible mountain scenery, and a meticulously maintained course. While it's certainly an investment, you're paying for a top-tier resort golf experience with exceptional service and views that are hard to match anywhere else. Consider it a splurge for a truly memorable round.
