Golf in Sandy

Sandy is a Salt Lake County city at the base of Little Cottonwood Canyon, the corridor that leads to Alta and Snowbird — consistently rated among the best ski resorts in North America. The city has evolved from a blue-collar community associated with the Midvale smelter to a suburban center with a mix of residential, commercial, and recreational assets. Rio Tinto Stadium, home to Real Salt Lake of Major League Soccer, is among the premier soccer-specific venues in the country. Sandy's position at the mountain base gives its eastern neighborhoods an alpine character that western residential areas lack, and three golf courses serve the city's considerable population.
