Plan Your Summer Golf Outing at Keystone Resort

If you are looking for an unforgettable golf trip this Spring or Summer, look no further than Keystone Resort, Colorado.  There are two amazing golf courses at Keystone Resort, just a few miles apart in the rolling hills surrounding Keystone.  Staying at Keystone, you will also have access to a number of other courses in Summit County, no more than 10 to 20 minutes in the car, including The Raven at Three Peaks, The Town of Breckenridge Golf Course and Copper Mountain Golf. Drive a little further down I-70 and you will reach multiple courses in the Vail and Beaver Creek/Edwards/Avon areas. The Keystone Ranch and Keystone River Courses both offer amazing mountain views and spectacularly maintained, challenging courses. There is no question that you'll love to tee off at Keystone Resort.  The golf season in the Rockies typically kicks off in mid to late May and runs until as late as September or early October, depending on the weather.  Weather can change quickly, so always come prepared with extra layers, gloves, and sunscreen. The Keystone Ranch Golf Course is an 18 hole, par-72 course that takes you on a journey through pine trees, over vistas and even around a small lake, traveling through the peaceful Keystone Ranch area. The total yardage of the course is 5,582 - 7,090 and it also includes a practice course with a putting green, practice bunker and a driving range.  There is a clubhouse on the grounds with locker rooms and a fully-stocked golf shop that sells everything you might need, including sunscreen, gear, and apparel.  The area is also home to the Keystone Ranch Restaurant, which serves breakfast, lunch and afternoon snacks and beverages every day during the golf season, not to mention fine dining in the evenings. The Ranch Restaurant offers some of the best views around on the deck which overlooks the back nine of the course. The Keystone River Course is located in the West Keystone area, and flows in and out of the pine forests and Snake River.  This par-71, 18-hole course offers golfers a challenge with features like substantial elevation changes, water hazards, trees and multiple sets of tees on each hole to appease golfers of all abilities.  This course offers unparalleled views of Lake Dillon, surrounding snow-capped mountain peaks, and the beautiful Snake River.  This course also will give you plenty of chances to see wildlife such as Elk, birds, fox and other animals. The Clubhouse at The River Course includes both a golf shop and small restaurant, The Grill, which serves up breakfast, lunch and après-golf with happy hour served out on the sunny deck.  The River Course also houses a practice facility and access is included with your golf fees. Keystone Resort offers golfers an experience they won't have anywhere else with its beautiful mountain scenery and high altitude game.  Remember that both courses require a collared shirt and non-metal spiked shoes.  As always don't forget the sunscreen, because Colorado gets on average 300 days of sunshine a year! There are plenty of lodging options available at Keystone that offer quick access to both golf courses.  For those playing at the Keystone River Course, The Pines in West Keystone offers the ultimate convenience.  Condos at the Pines offer easy access and amazing views of the greens, see the photo below from the balcony at Pines 2163.  For those playing at the Keystone Ranch, SummitCove has some very luxurious properties that are very close to the course, including the private home rental, GoldenRod Home #7.  Keystone Resort is a central hub for golfing in the Rocky Mountains, a true golf-lovers paradise!
