Stanley Thompson Course (Stanley Thompson); Tunnel Mountain Course – 9 holes (Cornish & Robinson)
Resort Overview
Set in the heart of Banff National Park, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, this elegant resort has been called Canada’s “Castle in the Rockies,” with a grand hotel that rises from the base of the mountains. Stretching just below, in a stunning alpine valley, is a Golden Age-design by Stanley Thompson, the Alister MacKenzie of the Great White North. His inspired routing, replete with gorgeous paw-print bunkers and beautifully undulating greens, makes the most of its breathtaking surrounds, winding along the Bow River, in the shadow of towering peaks.
Highlights
The 4th hole on the Stanley Thompson course, a par-3 known as Devil’s Cauldron that plays over water to a green set against the mountains.
The 40,000 square-foot spa, with 27 treatment rooms and arresting mountain views
