My family and I have been golfing here several times. It's a great golf course with beautiful scenery. It is very popular though, so you definitely need to make a reservation for a tee time like most golf courses. Definitely beginner and advanced players on the course so some patients are needed. This is a yearly trip for our family and something that will always be in our memory book. The course itself is maintained very well. The staff is friendly and It also has a little restaurant on site. They've recently added a driving range in the last year and it's a great addition.

Absolutely beautiful course that is kind of tucked away. It has such beautiful views all around the course, and some really fun but challenging holes, including a par 3 where you have to hit across a ravine. Definitely not an easy course, but worth playing for sure. Be aware if you’re there on a Sunday the cafe closes in the early afternoon, so make sure to bring your own drinks/food.

This is a really nice, and somewhat hidden, course. It’s very well maintained, the prices were pretty decent, the staff were excellent and the scenery was gorgeous! As for the difficulty it was moderate, 6/10. Some holes were really tough but there’s also a 70 yard par 3. It would be perfect for beginners or kids who are working on learning the game, but those who have played for years will find it fun as well.
Now for the downside: given it’s location, next to a campground and lake, and where it is in the state there was next to no golfing etiquette. Now I’m not a huge stickler when it comes to etiquette but blasting music, screaming and yelling, and and driving your cart while someone is trying to hit is not cool. I know I sound like some angry grandpa but it was honestly getting out of hand. This was really the only problem I found during my round.
This course was super fun. It’s a bit out of the way, just over 90 miles from my house, but it was definitely worth it. I had an absolute blast and I’ll definitely be coming back at least once a year!

Great course! Beautiful place to play! Great people working hear! Watch out for the angry old guys, but Palisade’s is a great golf course in the middle of nowhere! If you are driving by you need to stop and play this course. Great golf pro at the course!

Oh my!! This was one of my very favorites of the 9 golf courses I played on my unforgettable Utah golf vacation. Played this exquisite course on Tuesday, 24 September, 2019.
So many elevated tee boxes...so much fun...and such incredible views from them! At sunrise, the view west toward Gunnison Reservoir into the valley below from the signature #4 Tee is stunning, as are the views south toward Palisade Lake...especially from #15, 16, and 17. Proud to say I stuck the #4 with my 9-iron ~10' from the hole! Perhaps the most challenging greens I've ever played, especially #10 and 14.
Fairways and greens were beautifully maintained...and the grounds crew were really friendly and very accomodating to the golfer. Kristie in the pro shop was great in getting me out on the course first light in the morning. Makesha in the snack bar was so kind, friendly and attentive...and the club sandwich was outstanding! The weather couldn't have been more perfect. I'm planning to be back next year!
