Wouldn't bother playing again... 2+ years drive by

Reviewed: Played on:Sep 11, 2010 Played the course:once

Pros:

-Beaver Creek is a beautiful setting to have a course.
-Hiking across the ski slopes makes for some good exercise.
-Many of the holes make interesting use of terrain change, interesting uphill and downhill holes.

Cons:

-No real tees, most drives are from uneven dirt patches and several butt up against a cliff (bad if you tend to overrun the tee).
-Baskets aren't great.
-Baskets can be difficult to locate from the tee, even with the map.
-Many of the holes are really short. No signage indicating distance, but the front 9 had several holes that were <200.
-Lots of tall weeds and brush made it really hard to find discs, even when I saw right where it came down.

Other Thoughts:

Managed to lose 2 discs on this course because the uneven tees made it really hard to accurately place drives and the amount of brush made looking for them really difficult.

Make sure you grab a map from the Ritz Carlton. Even with the map, it sometimes took a bit of looking around to try to figure out where tees/baskets were.
