Situated just outside Aspen, the mountain golf course at the Maroon Creek Club is a scenic Tom Fazio layout that features a solid set of par threes at holes 9, 11 and 13. Architect Denis Wise, a former Fazio associate, re-shaped the sand traps and installed new drainage in 2006.

Maroon Creek
Situated between Aspen Village and the local airfield, the mountain golf course at the Maroon Creek Club is an incredibly scenic Tom Fazio layout that features a set of wonderful par three holes.
Measuring 7,129 yards and playing to a par of 71, the course underwent a bunker renovation in 2006 when architect Denis Wise, a former Fazio associate, re-shaped the sand traps and installed new drainage.
Although Maroon Creek is a private club, because part of the course is leased from the local municipal authorities, certain local residents are entitled to play at a reduced guest fee several times a year.
