Soldier Hollow- Great course- Long from the gold- 7200 yds but well worth it. Greens were fast with subtle breaks. You have to stay in the fairways.
We played on a Monday afternoon and thoroughly enjoyed ourselves. Never pushed or delayed, the flow and pace of the course was pleasant.Allow time before or after your round to enjoy the grill. Based on prior reviews, we each ordered the pastrami burger. Quite good. Nice selection and friendly staff.Several points to ponder... First, we played in July and it was hot baby. The pro shop and grill do not have coolers on hand. Though it is possible to get cold drinks packed in a plastic bag of ice, it melts rapidly. I suggest you bring along a small cooler to keep drinks cold. Second, water is scarce on the course. To the best of my knowledge, only a single water fountain is available on the entire 18 holes of the silver course. On a hot day it will be impossible to stay hydrated if you do not take liquids with you - either from the grill or your own water bottle. Keep in mind, there is really no way to refill your water on the course, so plan accordingly. For example, at the turn I purchased four waters and two Poweraids for the three of us. Third, we rented clubs. My Dad had a great set, I had an average set, and our lefty had a poor, incomplete set.Go, play, enjoy. This is a fun course with scenic views of the Wasatch mountains and Heber Valley. The staff and other golfers are very pleasant. A great outing!
Played Soldier Hollow in July in the USGA Public Links golf championship. Course was in magnificent shape. Greens were so fast that they almost lost them. Area hadn't had rain in over w months but rained during our practice rounds. Fescue was therefore very short. Longest course in USGA history. Ball flies a lot further in Utah. Bunkers placed at 290 yds off the tee were not even in play as drives were flying well past that. It was a tough course to walk in the high altitude but I am sure during regular play you must take a cart. Great scenery. Bring your camera.
As the other reviews suggest, the 2 courses at Soldier Hollow are scenic and fun. Also, they are not super crowded, at least on the day we played. My 24 yer old on and I played as a two-some around 4 one afternoon. We had to wait once or twice to hit during our 18 holes. Overall a great round on a well maintained, uncrowded, scenic course. We will be going back the next time we visit Park City, it's worth the drive.
Tough course for a first time golfer, but worth the effort. Views of Heber Valley are amazing. Price for 18 with a cart can't be beat. Not too far from Pk City and well worth the drive.
Great views, 2 great courses that are fun, but challenging. I try and play here at least 5-6 times a year.
Nice golf course and excellent views on the Canyon Course. Cost was very reasonable (under $50). The course was in very good condition and provided plenty of challenges for the average golfer. Views were very good on the front nine in particular..
This is a challenging course. It has sand and water and if you don't know where the water crosses the fairway you could be in it. Although not as high up as the other 18 holes the altitude it still high as is the whole area. The restaurant has good food. Hand cut french fries!
I have played this course a couple times and enjoy how challenging it is. The scenery is beautiful as well.
First impression was not very good. Clubhouse and parking lot looked shabby. Had gas engine carts which I hate. Played the Gold course and found it to be lacking in design and care. The greens were in terrible shape. Rough surfaces and unrepaired pitchmarks. Design was nondescript. There were a few interesting holes but for the most part it was blah. The views of the valley were lovely. It didn't cost much and wasn't worth much.
