Forest
Dale Golf Course was originally built in 1905 as the
Salt Lake Country Club and holds the distinction of
being the oldest golf course in Utah. Forest Dale
has undergone several phases of renovation since the
city acquired the course in 1935.
Today,
it's a challenging course with several small, original
table-top greens that place a premium on accuracy.
A major redesign in 1986-87 maintained the tradition
while transforming the course into a contemporary test
of golf. The nine-hole layout features three
par-3's, three par-4's and three par-5's, with a large
lake coming into play on the closing three holes.
The par-4, 449-yard 9th is renowned as one of the most
challenging finishing holes in Utah.
The
Forest Dale Golf Course clubhouse remains a landmark in
Salt Lake City and has been placed on the Utah
Historical Register. The clubhouse was completely
renovated and restored in 1994-95, preserving the
mission-style architecture of prominent Utahn Frederick
Albert Hale. The renovated clubhouse facility now
serves as the home of Salt Lake City's Golf Division
offices and includes a large public meeting room with
the original Forest Dale fireplace.
