Red Sky Golf Club

Venue Overview

Red Sky Golf Club is a private membership club in Wolcott widely regarded as the Vail Valley's most extraordinary golf facility. Two nationally acclaimed championship courses, one designed by Tom Fazio and the other by Greg Norman, weave through 800 acres of historic ranchland filled with sage, aspen groves, and sweeping mountain vistas. Members and guests each enjoy their own dedicated clubhouse, and play alternates daily between the two courses. Access beyond the membership is limited to guests of the Vail Resorts family of lodges and participants in the Red Sky Golf Academy, reinforcing the club's reputation as one of the most exclusive golf experiences in the Rocky Mountains. Nestled near the legendary Vail and Beaver Creek Mountain Resorts, the club offers an unprecedented commitment to service alongside its elegant western-inspired architecture.

Practice Facilities

The Red Sky Golf Academy building draws on the classic log-cabin architecture of the Rocky Mountains, blending seamlessly into its surroundings. Inside, members and Academy participants have access to a fitness room with modern training equipment and a private video analysis room equipped with Flight Scope and other swing-analysis technology. Outside, a spacious, canopy-covered practice tee and a nearly 5,000-square-foot manicured putting green with bunkers and mounds give golfers a complete space to work on every part of their game, including uneven lies.

Dining and Amenities

Red Sky's two clubhouses each operate their own dining venue: Summer Thyme at the main clubhouse on Red Sky Road, and Silver Sage at the club's second location. Both reflect the club's elegant western architecture and emphasis on service, giving members a place to unwind after a round on either course.

Planning Your Event Here

Given its private, membership-based structure, hosting an event at Red Sky Golf Club requires member sponsorship or coordination through the Vail Resorts lodging and Golf Academy access channels rather than open public booking. Members interested in organizing a group outing, corporate function, or private event should coordinate directly with the Private Events team to arrange course access, dining, and any additional amenities.
