Golfed 18 on the Mountain Course today, and it was an awesome experience. The layout is both fun and challenging, with a great mix of holes that really test your game. The course itself is in excellent condition—the fairways were well maintained and the greens rolled smooth and true. The only downside was the pace of play, which was pretty rough when we went out. Hard to say if it was because tee times were booked too close together or just slower groups ahead, but it definitely made the round drag a bit. That being said, the quality of the course more than made up for it, and it was still a really enjoyable day. Overall, it’s a course I’d highly recommend if you’re looking for both a challenge and some beautiful scenery. I’ll definitely be back to play again.

Can't beat the sunsets at Mountain Dell or the wildlife. We've encountered moose and mountain lion. Amazing place. We're lucky to have this as a public course.

Mountain Dell Golf Course, nestled in the scenic mountains just a short drive from Salt Lake City, offers a great golfing experience, especially if you’re playing the Canyons course. The setting is nothing short of spectacular, with sweeping views that make it easy to forget you’re so close to the city. The natural beauty of the area definitely adds to the overall enjoyment of the game. The Canyons course itself is a lot of fun. It’s challenging enough to keep things interesting, with a variety of holes that test different aspects of your game, but it’s also forgiving in a way that allows you to relax and just enjoy the round. The course was in good condition when we played, with well-maintained fairways and greens that rolled true. It’s clear the staff takes pride in keeping the course up to par. One of the standout aspects of our round was the pace of play. It can be frustrating when a beautiful day of golf is marred by slow play, but that wasn’t the case here. We moved along at a steady, comfortable pace, allowing us to fully enjoy the experience without any unnecessary delays. Overall, Mountain Dell’s Canyons course offers a solid round of golf in a stunning setting. Whether you’re a local or just visiting, it’s definitely worth a tee time.

Mountain Dell is a really fun course with absolutely sensational views—it’s one of the most scenic and conveniently located options near Salt Lake City. The layout offers variety and challenge, and the proximity to SLC makes it an easy choice when you want to sneak in a round. That said, this entire year the course has been plagued by painfully slow play. Rounds regularly stretch into 4.5–5.5 hours due to extreme bottlenecks, which takes a lot of the enjoyment out of the experience. Unfortunately, there’s no real pace-of-play monitoring: no rangers on the course and no enforcement, which makes the issue even more frustrating. If Mountain Dell can get pace of play under control, it would truly be a top-tier course for both locals and visitors. Until then, expect amazing scenery but bring your patience.

This course is awesome for views and we'll maintained. It is not for the novice golfer, however. Hood golfers will be challenged from Black and Blue tees. There are 3 sets of forward tees to provide some relief from long tee to fairway carries. Two courses here; played Lakes today. Excellent proshop staff.
