Sonnenalp Golf Club

The Vail Valley's altitude works overtime here, turning modest swings into career drives while crisp mountain air sharpens every sensory detail of your round. Bob Cupp's design threads through aspen groves and across Berry Creek, demanding precise iron play on elevated greens that slope toward the distant Sawatch Range. This high-country gem rewards strategic thinking over brute force, though the thin air certainly doesn't hurt when you catch one flush.
