Course Report
Maroon Creek Club is considered one of the most exclusive private clubs in Aspen, known for its mountain setting and luxury amenities.
About
Maroon Creek Club in Aspen is a private club featuring a highly regarded Tom Fazio-designed course set amid the breathtaking Elk Mountain Range. Opened in 1996, the 18-hole layout integrates natural mountain beauty with strategic bunkering, fast greens, and pristine fairways, delivering a challenging and memorable golf experience for members.
Caddie Tip
Many greens at Maroon Creek have subtle breaks influenced by the surrounding mountains; always check your aiming lines relative to the valley and be conservative with club selection, as the thinner air at elevation can add significant distance to every shot.
The Main Challenge
The tough elevation changes combined with fast, sloping greens and strategic bunkering are the course’s greatest challenges. Altitude can make club selection tricky, and the mountain setting demands focus on every approach. Even experienced golfers need to manage their game smartly to score well.
The Good
Members consistently praise the setting, enjoying panoramic mountain scenery and pristine course conditions. Tom Fazio’s routing blends seamlessly with the landscape, offering a varied test of golf that never feels repetitive. The tranquility and exclusivity make each round a true escape.
The Not So Good
Since it is private and in a mountain setting, pace of play can sometimes be impacted by high demand during peak summer weekends. A few members note that elevation changes can cause blind shots that may frustrate first-time players. Access is strictly limited to members and their guests.
