Jackson Hole Golf & Tennis
The valley's original championship course, with the whole Teton Range behind the green
About Jackson Hole Golf & Tennis
Jackson Hole Golf & Tennis is where valley golf began — Teton County’s first eighteen-hole championship course, laid out in the early 1960s and twice reworked by Robert Trent Jones Jr., most recently in a comprehensive multi-year redesign that added length, new tees, and a modern practice facility. What no redesign touched is the setting: fairways running toward the full, unobstructed sweep of the Teton Range, with the Gros Ventre River corridor alongside and Grand Teton National Park’s boundary just north.
The neighborhood wraps the course — single-family homes and cabins on generous lots, plus townhome and condo enclaves like Teton Shadows and Golf Creek — with no commercial development around it and nothing between the back porch and the mountains but fairway and hay meadow. Moose and elk treat the river holes as their own; owners learn to share.
The practical case is quietly strong. This is the closest established neighborhood to Jackson Hole Airport — about five minutes — which matters more to frequent flyers than any amenity list. Town Square is roughly fifteen minutes south, Gros Ventre Road leads east toward Kelly and Lower Slide Lake, and in winter the fairways groom into a Nordic track with the range standing over every kilometer. The club itself runs a saltwater pool, tennis, and dining at the North Grille, with public tee times alongside its membership — a rarity among the valley’s golf addresses.

Seasonal Highlights
Summer
Golf under the range sets the calendar — the season runs roughly May through mid-October — with tennis, the saltwater pool, and North Grille evenings filling the rest. Gros Ventre Road leads to Kelly, the campground, and Lower Slide Lake for after-dinner drives, and Grand Teton National Park’s Moose entrance is minutes north. Wildlife shares the fairway edges most mornings.
Winter
The course grooms into a Nordic track — miles of flat, quiet skate and classic skiing with the full range as backdrop. The neighborhood goes still: no commercial corridor, no resort traffic, just snow on the hay meadows and elk moving between the refuge and the river. Town is fifteen minutes for dinner; the airport stays five minutes away for winter escapes in either direction.

Frequently Asked Questions
The original layout — Teton County’s first championship eighteen — opened in the early 1960s, and Robert Trent Jones Jr. has shaped it twice since: a major remodel in the early 1970s and a comprehensive redesign completed in 2007 that added new tees, length, and a modern practice facility. It ranks among Wyoming’s best courses year after year, and the Teton backdrop is unduplicated anywhere in golf.
No. The club operates semi-privately — public tee times are available in season, the North Grille serves non-members on a limited basis, and memberships add priority access, the saltwater pool, tennis, and winter programming. For owners in the neighborhood, that mix means club amenities without a mandatory buy-in; confirm current membership terms directly with the club.
Jackson Hole Airport is about five minutes north — this is the closest established neighborhood to it in the valley, a meaningful convenience for second-home owners and frequent travelers. Town Square is roughly fifteen minutes south, and Grand Teton National Park’s Moose entrance is a few minutes up the highway. Aircraft noise is modest; the airport operates under the strictest noise limits of any US commercial field.
Quiet, white, and closer to the skiing than it looks. The fairways groom into a Nordic track with full Teton views, Snow King and town are fifteen minutes south, and Jackson Hole Mountain Resort is about forty minutes. Many owners treat it as the calm base: wildlife out the window, no resort bustle, and the airport five minutes away.
