02What golfers say

The word on the course.

How golfers talk about it, summarized from public reviews. Their opinions, not our scoring.

The more golf-focused, strategic sister to the flashy Celebrity, a John Fought design with sculpted bunkering, generous fairway corridors and rolling terrain set against the same big mountain backdrops. It earns particular praise for walkability, though a few quibble with the redesigned routing.

Best forWalkable

Consistently praised

  • Strong, classic-style bunkering and generous, rolling fairways that play fair from multiple tees.
  • A notably walkable routing with mature trees and mountain views all around.

Worth knowing

  • A few find the routing brings play back toward incoming shots and wish for more standout holes.

Golfers recommend

  • Often paired with the Celebrity; choose Players for the more pure, strategic round.
  • A good option if you prefer to walk rather than ride.
