16TH TEE
Frequently Asked Questions
What makes the 16th hole at 16TH TEE so legendary?
The 16th at 16TH TEE is a dramatic par-3, playing downhill over a deep canyon to a green guarded by bunkers. You'll need to commit to your club selection here, as anything short is lost forever and anything long leaves a tricky recovery. It's a true test of nerve and precision, offering one of the most exhilarating tee shots you'll ever face.
When is the absolute best time of year to experience 16TH TEE?
We highly recommend visiting in late spring or early fall-think April-May or September-October. The weather is typically perfect for golf, with comfortable temperatures and less wind, and you'll often find the course in pristine condition after the summer rush or before winter dormancy. Plus, the surrounding foliage during these seasons adds an extra layer of beauty to your round.
Is 16TH TEE a course for every golfer, or does it demand a specific skill set?
While the course is undeniably challenging, especially from the back tees, it's surprisingly playable for a range of handicaps if you choose the right set of tees. The fairways are generally generous, but the greens are complex and demand a sharp short game. We'd say it's best suited for golfers who appreciate strategic design and aren't afraid of a few dramatic shots.
What should I budget for a round at 16TH TEE, and are there any insider tips for booking?
Expect to pay in the $150-$250 range for a prime weekend tee time, though weekday afternoons can sometimes dip lower. Your best bet for booking is to call directly about 30-60 days out, especially if you're targeting a specific date. Don't overlook their twilight rates if you're flexible-you can often snag a fantastic deal for a late afternoon round.
Beyond its famous 16th, what other holes or features make 16TH TEE a must-play?
The par-5 7th, with its sweeping dogleg and elevated green, is a fantastic strategic challenge that often gets overlooked. You'll also love the practice facilities, which include a massive short-game area perfect for honing those crucial chips and pitches before your round. The clubhouse itself is a gem, offering stunning views and a fantastic post-round meal.
