Overview
Set against the backdrop of the Colorado National Monument in Grand Junction, Redlands Mesa is a must-play for its topography alone. Rocky outcroppings line nearly every hole, and some tees play high above the fairway, providing scenic vistas of the surrounding lunar-like landscape. The Jim Engh design was formerly ranked on our list of 100 Greatest Public Courses, reaching as high as No. 17 from 2005-’08.

“Fun scenic desert course, with views everywhere, the par 3s are fun and challenging, 4 holes you seem to be alone in the desert canyons."

“A real gem a little off the beaten path. If you pass through Grand Junction and have a few hours to burn, this course is worth a stop. Stunning views from almost every hole. The bowl-shaped greens complexes on many holes helps even off-target approach shots find the green. Not country club quality conditions, but very fun course to play."
