The Pete Dye Resort Course

Diabolically Dye, this course is distinguished by hidden pin placements, carries over water, pot bunkers, elevated tees and railroad ties. It plays to 6,706 yards at a par 70 and is fun and forgiving for all skill levels. The award winning championship course is just steps away from the resort and as such shares the same majestic mountain views.

"Golf is not a fair game, so why build a course fair."- PETE DYE
