Coral Canyon
CORAL CANYON GOLF COURSE
Let Vacation Caddy book your next Coral Canyon Golf Vacation package. Located in what many call "Color Country" in St. George, Utah, Coral Canyon's 7,029-yard, par-72 desert golf layout provides breathtaking views of Bryce Canyon's snow-capped pink spires in the winter and Zion National Park's green springtime bloom.
In between seasons, golfers enjoy views of the area's many cascading blue waterfalls that are not far from the shades of purple that stretch from horizon to horizon overlooking the nearby North Rim of the Grand Canyon. Typical of the challenges players face at Coral Canyon Golf Course is the short par-3, 122-yard No. 6. Seemingly "dropped" into the natural red rock outcroppings, this golf hole plays from a rocky tee box over a deep ravine on the left peppered with 20-foot rock outcroppings. One of the most unique golf holes St. George Utah golf has to offer.
Coral Canyon Golf Club is the finest golf course St. George Utah has to offer. Coral Canyon Golf Club features 80 acres of turf, 55 sand bunkers, two lakes and a labyrinth of dry washes through the course, offering players the variety of risk/reward opportunities critical to the exceptional golf experience exclusive to golf vacations in St. George Utah.

-Keith G. Foster
President, Keith Foster Golf Course Design
While attending college at Miami Dade College and Florida International University in Miami, Keith Foster gained four years experience as a golf course superintendent at the Country Club of Miami.
After graduating from college, Foster worked as a golf course construction project manager for Wadsworth Golf Course Construction Company for five years.

Other notable projects include: Eagle Trace in Coral Springs, Florida; Linville Ridge in Linville, North Carolina; and renovation work at Augusta National Golf Course. Shortly after joining Arthur Hills and Associates, one of the top design firms in the U.S., Foster opened the company's western office in 1985 and was responsible for all of their western U.S. projects.

In 1991, Foster established his own design firm and since then has completed eight highly regarded golf courses, including: SunRidge Canyon Golf Club, Eaglewood Golf Course for the City of North Salt Lake City, Utah and The Quarry Golf Course in San Antonio, Texas. The Quarry Golf Course was ranked fourth in Texas by Golf Digest (May '95) and second in Texas by GolfWeek (May '95).
