Vail and Beaver Creek Golf - Colorado


For many years Vail and Beaver Creek have been known for their superb skiing. The area is also renowned for its magnificent mountain and forest settings, which are virtually unmatched in this country. But, alas, winter does come to an end. The beauty is still there and so are the many restaurants, bars, shops, hotels, and condos, all representing a huge dollar investment and earning virtually nothing.

The resorts of Colorado have discovered golf. They did not ease into the field, but went in under a full head of steam, employing such august names as Jack Nicklaus, Arnold Palmer, Pete Dye, Robert Trent Jones, Jr. and Gary Player to produce some of the finest golf courses anywhere. Two such areas are Vail Village Resorts and the Beaver Creek Resort complex, approximately 10 miles apart. Due to their proximity, most of the amenities are available to guests of either resort.

Within a 20-mile radius there are four first-class championship golf courses. Each has a full pro shop, locker rooms and restaurants. The golf season in this area is late June to mid-September. *
