Park City, Utah
Jeremy Ranch delivers classic Palmer risk-reward drama set amid striking Wasatch foothills. The 2026 renovation has elevated greens, bunkers, and playing surfaces to top regional conditioning, making it a must-play for anyone seeking Park City’s most acclaimed mountain golf.
Jeremy Ranch marries the adventurous shot values of Arnold Palmer with Wasatch mountain drama. Entrenched in Utah’s Upper East Canyon, its holes tumble through wooded foothills and open valley corridors. After the 2026 Brandon Johnson renovation, the greens are boldly contoured, the fairways rebuilt for lively run, and the bunkers tactically repositioned. It’s a course that challenges with altitude-driven length, strategic angles, revitalized putting surfaces, and creative risk/reward scenarios—quintessential Palmer, but elevated for the modern era.
Palmer’s team, bolstered by the recent Johnson-led renovation, have carefully modernized the course’s DNA while preserving its bold, playable Palmer character.
