Golfweek honors Redlands Mesa as among Colorado's top courses

GRAND JUNCTION, Colo. -- Redlands Mesa Golf Community is one of the best golf courses in Colorado according to Golfweek Magazine, which ranked the course third on its annual list of 2009 Best Courses You Can Play. The prestigious list is an annual state-by-state guide to the top 100 municipal golf courses in the U.S. This latest accolade by Golfweek is the most recent in a long string of awards the magazine has bestowed upon Redlands Mesa Golf Community. Almost every year since 2002, Redlands Mesa has appeared on either Golfweek's list of Best Public Access Courses and/or America's Best Residential Golf Courses.

According to Redlands Mesa Golf Pro, Eric Feely, the reasons for this are obvious, "It's an honor to be recognized so consistently. But in truth, the Golfweek award and others validate what we already know; Redlands Mesa is a great place to play year in and year out."

Designed by award-winning golf architect, Jim Engh, the course is masterfully routed to take advantage of the majestic landscape with minimal disturbance to the native terrain. Players can tee off from narrow pinnacles and skirt along the edges of sheer cliffs. The course offers a true championship layout with many exciting features including elevated tees, unique hole shaping and of course dramatic, world-class vistas. The course delivers exciting, challenging terrain in a one-of-a-kind locale with jaw-dropping views of the Colorado National Monument, the Grand Mesa and Book Cliff Mountains.

Players can also enjoy breakfast, lunch and dinner at the Red Canyon Grille located in the Clubhouse. The restaurant features contemporary American cuisine daily from 7:00 a.m. to 9:00 p.m.
