OF A PIECE WITH the historic ranchlands, aspen groves and scenic ridgelines just west of Vail and Beaver Creek, Red Sky Golf Club debuted in 2002 with its 7,116-yard Tom Fazio layout and opened its 7,580-yard Greg Norman-designed course a year later. The pair have consistently earned national accolades ever since.
A private membership club with a separate resort golf operation, Red Sky Golf Club allows members and guests each to enjoy their own clubhouse (members at the Norman Course; guests at the Fazio), with play alternating daily between the courses. The Fazio Course sits lower in elevation, and weaves through open sage covered hills, a dense aspen forest and around a highland lake. The more rugged Norman layout climbs through outcroppings, twisted knots of scrub oak, rugged gulches and wildflower meadows, offering panoramic views from a number of greens.
Situated just 20 minutes from the Vail/Eagle County Airport, the courses serve as centerpieces to the exclusive 780-acre Red Sky Ranch community. Three dozen luxury resort properties in the Vail/Beaver Creek nexus offer stay-and-play arrangements at this stunning facility.
