Cottonwood Country Club

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I play a round at Cottonwood Country Club if I'm not a member?

Cottonwood Country Club is primarily private, but don't despair - you can often play as a guest if you're invited by a member. If you don't know one, we suggest calling the pro shop directly; they occasionally offer limited public access during off-peak times or for special events, which is your best bet to get on these greens.

What's the signature challenge or unique feature of Cottonwood Country Club's course design?

You'll quickly discover that Cottonwood's mature, towering trees aren't just for show - they strategically frame nearly every fairway, demanding precision off the tee. The course truly shines with its tricky par-3s, especially the 7th hole, where a deceptive crosswind often turns a seemingly easy shot into a real test of your iron game.

When is the best time of year to experience Cottonwood Country Club at its prime?

We always recommend visiting Cottonwood in the late spring or early fall. The weather is typically perfect for golf, and the course maintenance crew has the fairways and greens in absolutely pristine condition, with the mature cottonwoods showing off their vibrant seasonal colors. You'll find the fastest and truest rolls on the greens during these times.

Beyond the course, what kind of practice facilities does Cottonwood Country Club offer?

Cottonwood boasts a fantastic, expansive driving range with high-quality range balls, which isn't always a given at private clubs. You'll also find a dedicated short game area complete with bunkers and multiple chipping greens, perfect for dialing in those crucial scoring shots before you hit the first tee.

What's the post-round dining experience like at Cottonwood Country Club?

After your round, we always head to the 19th Hole Grill at Cottonwood; it offers a relaxed, welcoming atmosphere with great views overlooking the 18th green. Their clubhouse burger is surprisingly excellent, and it's the perfect spot to unwind and recount your best shots over a cold drink with your playing partners.
