Golf Tips Selects (cont.)
| | Keystone Resort
Keystone, Colo.
 Two courses anchor this beautiful resort. The first is Keystone Ranch, a rollicking Robert Trent Jones Jr. design. The second is the River Course, designed by Michael Hurdzan and Dana Fry. Both courses are immensely scenic, yielding photo ops from every spot on the property. The 60-year-old Ranch Clubhouse’s menu is to die for.

Stateline, Nev.
 This George Fazio design has perhaps more spectacular views than any other course in the Lake Tahoe area, especially where the course concludes at the lake’s edge. The awesome clubhouse is a must to see, eat at and shop in. Area accommodations are plentiful, especially at one of South Lake Tahoe’s many casino hotels.

| Coyote Moon Golf Course
Truckee, Calif.
 Former PGA Tour player Brad Bell shaped this design through sharp, rocky outcroppings and 250 acres of secluded and wooded hills. The course has fast become a favorite among serious course aficionados. No accommodations are on site, but Truckee is just minutes away.

| The Dragon at Gold Mountain
Graeagle, Calif.
 The Robin Nelson-designed Dragon is a definite challenge. Players are required to navigate along the edge of deep gorges overlooking the scenic Feather River with amazing views of nearby Gold Mountain. The Frank Lloyd Wright-designed clubhouse is a must-see and the stay-and-play villas are among the most luxurious in the world.

| The Coeur d’Alene Resort
Coeur d’Alene, Idaho
 The floating 14th green is world-famous. Hit your tee shot over water, ride a boat and enjoy the view of the surrounding mountain vistas, 100 miles from the Canadian border. The hotel and other 17 holes are spectacular in their own right.

St. George, Utah
 This Keith Foster design plays through jagged 20-foot-high red-rock outcroppings and dusty washes. Far in the distance is Bryce Canyon National Park and the awesome Zion National Park.
