Hurricane, UT
Golf on red-rock cliff edges outside Zion — Utah's color-saturated stunner.
In Utah's red-rock southwest corner, Sand Hollow Resort stacks its golf along the rim of a sandstone mesa — the Championship course turns for home along cliff-edge holes with vermilion drops beside the fairway and Pine Valley Mountain filling the horizon. A links-style nine on rolling dunes handles the arrival-day and settle-the-bets duty, and the surrounding St. George corridor adds a deep rotation of red-rock courses at family-friendly fees. The resort's multi-bedroom villas were designed for exactly this kind of crew, and Zion's canyons sit under an hour away for the one morning the clubs stay in the trunk.
