Glenwild Golf Club

Glenwild Golf Club sits in the mountains above Park City, Utah, occupying elevated terrain that offers expansive views of the Wasatch Range and surrounding high-country landscape. Tom Fazio designed the course in the early 2000s as the centerpiece of a private residential community, routing the layout through natural terrain characterized by rolling contours, native grasses, stands of scrub oak and aspen, and dramatic elevation changes. The setting places the course at approximately 6,500 to 7,000 feet above sea level, where the thin air affects ball flight and the mountain environment shapes playing conditions throughout the season. Fazio's design works with the property's natural topography rather than imposing dramatic earthwork, incorporating the site's existing ridges and valleys into the routing. The course features wide fairways that accommodate the challenges of playing at altitude, along with strategically placed bunkers and native area hazards that define playing corridors. Greens are typically large and contoured, reflecting Fazio's design approach of creating multiple pin positions and recovery options around putting surfaces. The club operates as a private facility within the Glenwild residential development, serving members and property owners. Park City's evolution from a historic mining town to a year-round resort destination provides context for the club's role in the area's golf landscape, where mountain courses contend with a relatively short playing season and the distinctive conditions that come with high-altitude golf in the Intermountain West.
