Aspen Glen Club in Carbondale is a private 18-hole course designed by Jack Nicklaus in 1997, set along the Roaring Fork River with stunning Sopris Mountain views. The par-72 layout spans 7,300 yards with a slope of 130, featuring tree-lined fairways, strategic bunkering, and fast greens, blending seamlessly with the alpine landscape.

The course plays as a scenic test, with elevation changes and tight fairways demanding precision. The par-3s, like the 4th, require accurate carries, while the par-5s offer risk-reward options. Golfers must navigate the river and hazards, with the course’s beauty adding distraction. Aspen Glen’s private status and luxurious amenities make it an elite experience.
