Then I got called to get my rentals, by the time I got back to finish out my 6 year olds rentals, they handed me her skis! They were 120s! I asked, “is it possible to get shorter skis for her, these are way too long, this is only her 3rd time skiing (1st time without group lessons). I replied, “yes they are, can we please get the next size up.” Big sigh under his breathe and we got the right size. Went up to the counter and told the rude gentleman that they were too small, he immediately says ‘no they’re not’. Got called for my 6 year olds boots and helped her get them on, buckled them and had her bend her knees, she said her toes still touched. Although the green fees are about $5 more than the average public course, Wolf Creek Golf resort offers a great value for the experienced golfer.Decided to get ski rentals at Wolf Creek and staff was extremely rude and unhelpful. Wolf Creek Golf Course is a tough challenge for the best golfers without being overly penal for mid handicap golfers. This is especially true on holes 1 and 10. Since the ball flies further after being hit from high above the landing area, the distance a miss-hit shot draws or fades will be exaggerated and you could end up missing the fairway. The front 9 seems to be wide open as there are very few trees, but the long meadow grasses off the fairways will hide a ball as well as the thick woods on the back 9.īe cautious when driving from the elevated tees. The fairways are generally wider on the holes that require long tee shots, but all holes have plenty of places that provide lost and unplayable lies. The par 5s are the most manageable holes but even they have elevated greens making the holes play longer. All but one of them is in the 180+ range and two of them have long carries over water. And once you reach the greens in regulation you still have to putt out on fast greens that break severely toward the valley bottom. Long uphill second shots put fairway woods into the hands of all but the longest players. Numbers 3, 7 and 18 are well over 400 yards long and each has an up sloping fairway to an elevated green. Several of the toughest par 4 holes in Utah are on Wolf Creek. On the card, the tee lengths of 6845 (gold) and 6465 (blue) don't seem to be outrageous, but the way the holes use the yardage will make you think a 300 yard drive is required to score well. It's tough because of it's playing length, not it's actual length. Wolf Creek is probably one of the top five toughest courses in Utah.
They are harmless but can give you a scare if you disturb one hiding hiding in the long grass. A more common critter on the course is the garter snake. Wildlife is often seen on the course including deer, moose and fox. The course is a mountain style course with elevated tees, sloped terrain and lots of wild areas in which to lose your ball. In addition to the golf course Wolf Creek includes condos and time share units for summer and winter vacationers. The high mountains surround everything in sight and the area is very scenic. Wolf Creek is located in the rolling hills just below the canyon that leads to the Powder Mountain Ski Resort. But with the highway construction happening now in the city you can probably drive to Wolf Creek faster than you can across town. The reason that the course is not as busy is that it is a little more than an hour away from Salt Lake City and there isn't an Interstate running to it. It is scenic, challenging, well maintained and isn't as busy as most courses in Northern Utah. Tucked away in a small mountain valley on the eastern side of Ogden's Wasatch Mountains is one of the best courses in the state.
