Kudos For Green River Golf Course
HiddenFairways.com, operated by golf
enthusiasts out of Atlanta, Georgia, has this
interesting review of Utah's Green
River Golf Course.
Utah's St
George, Heber
Valley and Park
City courses are famous and always rate well, but the Green River
course is out of the way and usually ignored by national reviews.
It's refreshing to see it get this recognition.
The writer has nothing but good to say
about the course, as you can see from the excerpts below. His stats
for the course are accurate but his description of the Green River
itself is a little misleading.
I genuinely like
this place.
Green River State
Park is just north of I-70, in Southeast Utah, in one of the few
areas of the state that can be aptly described as bleak.
The golf course at
Green River is the centerpiece of this small state park, though there
is camping and the Green River, a fairly large river that runs all
the way from far northeastern Utah to Lake Powell, is readily
available via a small boat ramp adjacent to the campground.
Or if you're a
camper, the campground is excellent.
However you get
there, if golf is in your blood, add this one to your bucket list.
Utah is, in my
opinion, the most beautiful state in the country, so even if you
don't play golf, I'd highly recommend a trip west to see some
unmatched scenery.
The Green
River begins in the Wind River Mountains in SW Wyoming. It flows
into Flaming
Gorge Reservoir and then, below the Flaming Gorge dam, flows
through the NE corner of Utah and into Colorado. It re-enters Utah in
Dinosaur
National Monument and then flows south to join the Colorado
River south of Moab. The
Colorado flows into Lake
Powell.
