Steamboat Springs has two full 18-hole courses and both are within 15 minutes of Escape Chalet. Haymaker is a 233-acre city-owned course with four sets of tees per hole and open views of the Yampa Valley and Mount Werner. Rollingstone Ranch has been named a Top 100 course by Fairways Magazine, and you can hear Fish Creek Falls from parts of it.
Four sets of tees per hole means the group can play the same course at different lengths, which is the thing that keeps a mixed golf trip pleasant.
