The Club at Cordillera (Valley)

Overview: The Valley Course at Cordillera is a private mountain course in Edwards, Colorado, with high-country views, open valley corridors and wooded sections around the fairways. Tom Fazio’s routing responds to the terrain with elevation changes and broad visual horizons rather than treating the mountain setting as a backdrop.

History: The Valley Course opened in 1997 and is one of several distinct course identities at The Club at Cordillera. It is important to separate this routing from the nearby Mountain and Summit courses, which have different designers and different terrain profiles.

Did You Know? The Valley Course is the Tom Fazio design at Cordillera, while the Summit Course is associated with Jack Nicklaus and the Mountain Course with Hale Irwin. That distinction prevents the course’s architectural history from being blended with the rest of the club’s collection.
