Course Overview

Set against the dramatic backdrop of southern Idaho’s canyon floor, Blue Lakes-Jerome Golf Club offers an immersive golf experience that blends natural beauty with challenging play. This 18-hole, private championship course stretches across a lush valley, framed by towering canyon walls that shape its distinctive character. The setting offers both serene water features and native grasses, crafting a landscape that feels both expansive and intimately connected to the rugged terrain.

Blue Lakes-Jerome’s layout balances strategic shot-making and walkability, making it an engaging test for golfers of varied skill levels. Wide fairways invite a confident tee shot, while natural ripples and subtle elevation changes prompt thoughtful approach shots. Bunkers guard many of the greens with subtlety rather than theatrics, requiring touch and precision to navigate. The course’s proximity to crystal-clear water and vibrant greens juxtaposes with the dry, rocky canyon beyond, creating a visual and tactical contrast that holds the player’s attention from the first hole to the last.

The clubhouse serves as both a social hub and a vantage point overlooking stretches of the course, providing a welcoming atmosphere with attentive service. Dining here captures the essence of the region, offering fresh, well-prepared fare alongside spectacular views that enhance any post-round conversation. Players remark on the seamless blend of peaceful natural accents with the energy of a well-maintained course that consistently delivers day-to-day excellence.

Visitors should prepare for a golfing journey that rewards strategic decisions and steady execution. Walking the course is encouraged, allowing players to experience the calming sounds of water and subtle canyon breezes that test one's tempo without overpowering it. While the single-lane access road heightens the sense of arrival, the course’s sweeping beauty makes every moment on the grounds compelling. Blue Lakes-Jerome invites golfers to embrace both its tranquility and its challenges, promising an experience rooted firmly in its unique geographic identity.

Course Highlights

The course is defined by its canyon setting and water hazards that come into play on several holes, especially around the mid-course stretch. Architectural emphasis on integrating natural features preserves the area's rugged charm. Signature holes weave through the valley floor, offering panoramic views of the canyon cliffs while demanding precise shot placement. The clubhouse serves as a community hub with exceptional service and local cuisine, enhancing the overall experience.

Absolutely stunning course at the bottom of the canyon. The one lane road in and out is a bit of thrill but the lush green valley and crystal clear water on the canyon floor is magical.
