About this course

Forest Highlands Golf Club's Meadow Course sits at approximately 7,000 feet elevation in the ponderosa pine forests outside Flagstaff, Arizona. Tom Weiskopf designed the course in the early 1980s as the club's original eighteen, routing it through natural meadows and stands of mature pines that give the layout its name. The high-altitude setting provides a distinctive mountain golf experience in a state better known for desert layouts, with cooler temperatures and terrain that bears little resemblance to the Sonoran valleys below. Weiskopf worked with the property's natural contours and clearings to create a course that moves through varied elevation changes and framed corridors. The routing takes advantage of the meadow openings for strategic visibility while using the dense pine forests to define playing corridors and create a sense of seclusion. The conditioning benefits from the elevation and climate, producing firm, fast conditions uncommon in Arizona golf. Forest Highlands operates as a private club with a second Weiskopf course, the Canyon, added in the 1980s. The Meadow Course represents Weiskopf's early design work during a period when he was establishing his reputation as an architect following his playing career. The club's membership draws from Flagstaff and Phoenix-area residents seeking mountain golf as an alternative to the state's desert courses, and the facility maintains a reputation for strong playing conditions and a focus on the golf experience itself.
