St. George
Sand Hollow Championship
Red-rock desert / resort
Sand Hollow is the course that keeps the trip grounded. It has the scenery without turning every hole into a stunt. For many groups, it will be the round they most want to replay, and it may be the better pure fun-per-dollar round than the newer headline.

Spectacular views across all holes. Awesome cliffside signature holes on the back 9. The conditions were pretty good given the season. The red sand bunkers were surprisingly soft and fluffy.
We got on Feb 28 just before the regular priced period so that made it extra good val

Majestic views! Hard to focus on golf with the views on each hole. Staff very friendly and helpful.
The course conditions did not meet the value and price compared to other courses in the area.
A must play!

Now for the bad…
