Keystone Ranch Golf Course, Ranch Course

Keystone Ranch Golf Course is a Resort 36 hole golf facility located in Keystone, Colorado. The facility has two 18-hole championship golf courses. They are The Ranch Course and The River Course.

Ranch Golf Course first opened for play in 1980. The course was designed by Robert Trent Jones, Jr.

The Ranch Course, which is part of the Keystone Resort, is located at 9,300 feet above sea level, making it the second highest course in the U.S. The course was built in one of Colorado's most picturesque mountain valleys, so expect the impressive peaks that surround the course to add to its beauty. Some holes are lined by pine trees, while others were designed to play through sage meadows. Water hazards (most notably a nine-acre lake) come into play on seven holes.

Par for the course is 72. From the back tees the course plays to 7,090 yards. From the forward tees the course measures 5,582 yards. The longest hole on the course is # 18, a par-5 that plays to 589 yards. The shortest hole on the course is # 12, a par-3 that plays to 171 yards from the back tees.

Watch out for # 6, a 564 yard par-5 challenge and the #1 handicap hole on the course. The easiest hole at the Ranch Golf Course is # 12, the 171 yard par-3.
