Bookcliff Country Club

Frequently Asked Questions

When is the best time of year to play Bookcliff Country Club for ideal conditions?

We highly recommend visiting Bookcliff in late spring (April-May) or early fall (September-October). These shoulder seasons offer perfect temperatures and the course is typically in pristine condition, showcasing those stunning Bookcliff views without the intense summer heat or crowds. You'll find the greens running true and the fairways lush, making for an exceptional round.

What kind of challenge can I expect from Bookcliff Country Club's layout?

Bookcliff offers a fair but engaging test, particularly with its subtle elevation changes and strategically placed bunkers that demand attention. You'll need to be precise with your iron play, especially on the back nine where the landscape truly comes into play. Don't underestimate the subtle breaks on the greens-they can be trickier than they look.

Is Bookcliff Country Club open to the public, and what are the typical green fees?

While primarily a private club, Bookcliff does offer limited public play, usually on specific weekdays or through reciprocal agreements. We recommend calling ahead to inquire about available tee times and current non-member rates, which typically range from $90-130 including a cart, depending on the season. It's definitely worth the call to experience this gem.

Which holes at Bookcliff Country Club offer the most memorable views or unique challenges?

You absolutely can't miss the par-3 7th, where the green is dramatically framed by the towering Book Cliffs-it's a postcard moment you'll want to capture. The finishing stretch, particularly the par-5 18th, demands a well-thought-out strategy to navigate the water hazard guarding the green, making for an exciting close to your round. These holes truly capture the essence of the course.

What's the clubhouse experience like at Bookcliff Country Club after a round?

The clubhouse at Bookcliff is welcoming and offers a relaxed atmosphere perfect for unwinding after your game. We love grabbing a drink and a bite at the Grill Room, which boasts fantastic patio views of the 18th green and the surrounding landscape. It's the ideal spot to recount your birdies-or commiserate over your bogeys-in comfort.
