Great place. Played Sidewinder course, challenging but fun. Rooms were clean, comfortable and spacious. Grounds are well kept. Pool was nice but needed more attention towards the end of the day as the pool deck was not kept up with lots of discarded towels and garbage on the deck, and loud music always playing, which doesn't make for a relaxing poolside experience.
Food was good with very friendly servers. Staff was friendly and helpful.

The Sidewinder course is nice. It has very difficult holes from the blue 💙 tees. Easy holes 🕳 for the less experienced golfers 🏌️‍♂️ 🏌️‍♀️. They play copper (red) tees, silver, white, blue, and black tees for a wide range of experienced golfers 🏌️‍♀️ 🏌️‍♂️to enjoy the course.
It is expensive at $160 + per golfer. I needed two rentals and added 2 additional riders on a cart at $50 each so my whole family could enjoy the golfing expertise 😉 experience. It was really nice of them to allow us this opportunity.
The whole experience of getting the clubs and the carts and practice area was well done. Especially when it was time to get out to the 1st tee box. They have a person who gives each cart their key 🔑 and a pep
talk with good information. Then our lady escorted all of us to the 1st tee. It is very well organized, so everyone is in a coordinated conga line 😀.
We had lunch at the outdoor seating area, which had a few shaded areas. The food was good and the service was great 👍. There are lots of options for the whole family to enjoy. Beer 🍺🍻tastes so good after a round of golf ⛳️ .
We did not stay at the hotel but it looks very nice and clean. It looks very convenient for sleeping 😴 💤, eating breakfast, lunch, and dinner 🍽 😋. And GOLF ⛳️ of course.
They have 2 very nice golf courses. The dinosaur 🦕 course is more expensive but it's supposed to be a great course.

I stayed here for two nights last weekend and was very disappointed. We were booked into a room that the hotel was unaware had a non-functioning toilet when we arrived, and at no point during our stay was it repaired to a point that we could flush it, nor were we offered to move to a different room or to be refunded any portion of our bill. Maintenance was very kind, attentive and earnest, but to little avail. We spent the weekend holding it in and listening to the slosh of aggressive plunging all afternoon while we dressed for the wedding we were in town to attend.

Beyond that problem, I was surprised by the quality of the room for the price. All of the lights were harsh fluorescents, including the bedside reading lights which were the only lamps. The phone was not hooked up. The clocks were all set several hours off. There were lightbulbs out in the bathroom and the toiletries provided were the same very cheap brand I get in two star hotels. The water pressure in the shower was poor. The coffee machine and creamer were the cheapest possible; the cups were paper and plastic.

We paid $400 for this two night stay. The grounds are beautiful but the comfort and amenities in a room are much better and more reliable at a chain hotel.

Had Sunday breakfast here the last three weeks. Tried different items fr
om the menu each visit and all of them were well prepared and pleasing.
We dined on their outside patio each time. Their outside dining is available sheltered or open unsheltered.
Very pleasant location and staff.

Just wanted to say I took my wife there for a getaway and our stay couldn’t have been better. Joelene exceeded our expectations and made our weekend memorable. Room was spacious and clean and the restaurant food was great. Your staff really made us feel welcome and at home!!

$350 a night was too much for this experience. Bathroom in room #601 is very dated, please replace the tub with a shower. The rooms abut each other and can be noisy at times. There was no view from the room... Best part of the visit was the hot tub - note the pool isn't heated. Might have been happier if they included a basic breakfast, a free bottle of water, and the golf channel.

Played golf only today. Barely a greeting from the Pro Shop, the man seemed annoyed. (wrong business to be in) No scorecard on the cart so people I played with got me one, said standards have been slipping here. They control cart keys like they are gold ( gold canyon aptly named) We teed off later than our scheduled time. Enjoyed the first 5 holes then it was basically 2 foursomes on each tee for the rest of the day! People I was paired with left after 9. No Marshall or Ranger to be found for the entire day. I joined a threesome and was still painfully slow. Views were great- course overrated for the price and pace of play was ridiculous. Don't know if I'll be back. You have one chance to make a first impression....

This Golf course resort is incredible!! The the golf on both Dinosaur Mountain and Sidewinder are amazing!! One thing that makes the courses so unique is having as many as 6 different tee boxes to play from on nearly every hole! Also, the condition of both courses are so well manicured! The views, the conditions, the weather, the staff, wow!!
