Aspen Valley Golf Club

While Aspen Valley was founded in its current form in 1993, the course was originally constructed nearly a half-century ago and was routed before housing was a consideration. The result is a layout which utilizes the best aspects of the site without any compromises. Holes move left and right, up and down, with a variety of distances and orientations. The result is a course which is both visually stunning and imminently playable. The elevation in Flagstaff provides an ideal growing environment, so the course is lush and green from late spring through early fall. Bentgrass greens are a luxury rarely provided in the Valley, but they are fast and true all summer long at Aspen Valley. A majority of the golf course is lined by tall ponderosa pines, framing tee shots and approaches in a way only provided by mountain golf. When the holes do traverse the meadows, the tests created by trees are replaced by natural wetlands. Importantly though, the design does an effective job of challenging the accomplished player while still accommodating the novice.
