Golf in Basalt

Basalt is a Roaring Fork Valley community between Aspen and Carbondale whose outdoor recreation character, art community, and agricultural heritage have made it an increasingly desirable residential address for those who want proximity to Aspen without the full Aspen price tag. The Roaring Fork Club—a Jack Nicklaus Signature private course along the Roaring Fork River—represents the exclusive end of Basalt's golf market, serving the high-net-worth residential community that the Roaring Fork Valley's transformation has attracted. The town's position along the Fryingpan River—one of Colorado's premier tailwater trout fisheries—gives it an outdoor recreation context beyond golf that draws year-round residents committed to mountain lifestyles.
