Don’t mistake this full-length, 9 hole gem as an afterthought to the popular 18 hole course next door, because The Links Course at Sand Hollow is downright awesome! Many visitors think it’s just an executive course or a short course, but it may actually be the area’s sleeper pick, and one of the most interesting designs in the entire area. We just wish it was 18 holes!
“The green complexes are massive, with mind boggling movement and undulations, and the gorgeous bunkers are kept ragged and rough, nothing more than blowouts among the dunes and sagebrush.”
The minimalist architecture and wide open playing corridors offer a refreshing outlook on golf, and offers a freedom of creating shots rather than hitting to a pin-point yardage. Playing conditions are excellent, but intentionally left rugged and more natural, like the stories links courses in the UK.
Rumpled fairways, rock walls, dirt cart paths and a more rugged/ragged look creates a old-world classic charm that not many desert courses can offer.
Of course you will still enjoy gorgeous views of the white and red cliffs of Zion National Park in the distance, Pine Valley Mountain to the west and the nearby Red Cliffs State Park as backdrops to the golf.
