Who knew the rugged outdoors of Western Montana would become the perfect home for great golf—known for epic outdoor adventures from majestic hiking and backpacking to award-winning flyfishing and boating, but great golf? Really? Yes!
Designed by Sir Nick Faldo, the 18-hole championship golf course at The Wilderness Club has received numerous awards, including being recognized as the #1 Golf Course in Montana by Golf Week Magazine. As Faldo is quoted as saying, “The course serves up a beautiful blend of open landscapes, rolling hills, and forest. I love the feel right from the start. You’ve got big skies, mountains, and within two holes you’re out into the edge of the forest. On every hole you can just stop, enjoy the incredible mountain views, and listen to the silence!”
Steps away from the Kootenai National Forest, the course’s wooded setting is utterly unique. Towering Ponderosa Pines line the fairways, which open to long, dramatic mountain views. Wispy grasses and deep, thick green rough give the mountain course a links-style feel. It is very different from the golf courses in Whitefish, Bozeman, or Big Sky. The Wilderness Club course is kept in impeccable condition, as is the Club’s gorgeous practice area. Even better is the availability of tee time on the course. Isn’t wide-open space and a slower pace why you fell in love with Montana in the first place? So why not live… and play every day in the perfect setting of The Wilderness Club.
