Overview
Glenwild Golf Club & Spa sits on a meadow valley north of Park City, offering invigorating vistas of the Wasatch mountain range surrounding the community. Tom Fazio was given first dibs on the land for his 18 holes, with developers agreeing to plot homesites only after he’d completed his routing. So he clustered holes together, positioned some holes along a couple of irrigation lakes and linked the lakes via a network of streams and cascading waterfalls. The far rough framing holes consists of native sagebrush, along with patches of flowering purple flax and transplanted aspen, chokecherry, maple, willow, spruce and Austrian pine. Enough trees were transplanted to define targets, but not so many as to block panoramic views.

“Very solid Tom Fazio designed track. Definitely top 5 in the state of Utah. Great routing throughout, with some very challenging holes. Greens contours are challenging yet fun. Shot making is tested extensively."

Review
“An excellent collection of holes that will challenge the scratch player but won't overwhelm the regular members. There are safe routes to the greens and closely mown bailouts around the greens, but to score well, a player will need to be very precise with approach shots and putting."

Review
“Glenwild is an aesthetic gem with really good conditioned fairways and greens. This Fazio design a really strong Par 3s (though I wish one of the par 3s was a shorter one-shotter) and with the elevation changes coupled with firm fairways, you'll be rewarded with distance on your tee shots."

“Spectacular and tough layout in the mountains around Park City. Altitude provides little assistance for this long and varied course, green complexes are large and heavily contoured."
