About this course

Fore Lakes Golf Course operates a Par 3 course in Salt Lake City, designed by William H. Neff (also known as William Howard Neff). The facility serves the Salt Lake metropolitan area, providing a short-game venue in Utah's capital city, which sits in the Salt Lake Valley along the Wasatch Front at roughly 4,200 feet elevation. The course functions as an accessible option for golfers working on their iron play and short game, typical of municipal or daily-fee Par 3 layouts in western cities. Par 3 courses in this region generally feature holes ranging from 80 to 180 yards, often incorporating water features and modest elevation changes that reflect the valley topography. The "Fore Lakes" name suggests water comes into play on multiple holes, a common design element that adds challenge and visual interest to shorter layouts. Such courses serve beginners learning the game, experienced players practicing specific shots, and those seeking a quick round in under two hours. Salt Lake City's golf season typically runs from April through October, with the high-desert climate providing dry conditions and mountain views as a backdrop. Par 3 courses in this market often draw families, junior golfers, and working professionals looking for convenient practice facilities. The course fits within the broader network of public golf options serving the Wasatch Front's growing population.

Getting there

Most arrivals to Fore Lakes Golf Course begin at Salt Lake City International Airport, a compact fifteen-minute drive north into the heart of the valley. The route follows I-15 briefly before peeling east toward the Wasatch foothills, where suburban sprawl gives way to open sky and the sudden, dramatic rise of the mountains. This is municipal golf in the shadow of peaks - accessible, unpretentious, and framed by one of the West's most striking natural backdrops.
