Frost Creek occupies a mountain valley setting in Eagle, Colorado, roughly thirty miles west of Vail in the central Rocky Mountains. Tom Weiskopf designed the course, which opened in the late 1990s as part of a private residential community. The layout takes advantage of the natural terrain at approximately 7,000 feet elevation, where the high-altitude environment affects ball flight and playing conditions throughout the season. The property sits along Brush Creek, and the routing incorporates the waterway and surrounding topography into the design.
Weiskopf's work here reflects his approach to mountain golf architecture, emphasizing strategic options and integration with the landscape rather than artificial earthmoving. The course features elevation changes and views of the surrounding peaks, with holes routed through meadows and stands of native vegetation. Playing conditions vary considerably with the mountain climate—the course typically operates from late spring through autumn, with cooler temperatures and occasional afternoon weather patterns common to high-elevation Colorado golf.
Frost Creek serves a private membership and remains relatively low-profile compared to more publicized Colorado mountain courses. The club operates as part of the broader residential development, and access is limited to members and their guests. The setting offers a quieter alternative to resort courses in nearby Vail and Beaver Creek, with the design emphasizing playability within the constraints of mountain terrain and weather.

Went here for a 3-month internship over the summer. An absolute stunner. If you can get out, do it and you won’t regret it.
