#2 Best New Course
3 Creek Ranch (private)
Jackson Hole, WY
           
Already home to a first-rate resort on the course, Teton Pines, this tony ski village now has a private club to match.  Given the natural setting, Rees Jones had much to work with here, namely a grassy rangeland dotted with cottonwoods and drained by a trio of creeks (each of which holds cutthroat rainbow trout).  There’s also a series of small lakes.  Despite the thin air at 6,500 feet, the course is long enough to be reckoned with.
