Island Park Village Golf Course

About Island Park Village Golf Course

You're not going to find this course in any "Best of Idaho" lists, but that's exactly what makes it worth playing if you're passing through the Henry's Fork area. Tucked away in this tiny resort town near Yellowstone, the layout takes advantage of the high-elevation setting at over 6,000 feet, your ball will fly noticeably farther in the thin air, which can throw off your club selection if you're not expecting it. The course has that unpretentious, mountain golf feel where locals mix with tourists, and the conditions reflect what you'd expect from a small-town track that prioritizes playability over perfection. The real draw here is the setting rather than architectural brilliance. You're playing golf in one of Idaho's most scenic pockets, surrounded by lodgepole pines with the Targhee Range visible in the distance. At 3.9 stars from visitors, it's clearly not championship caliber, but it serves its purpose as an honest mountain course where you can walk 18 holes without breaking the bank. If you're staying in the area for fishing or Yellowstone access, it's a solid way to spend a morning, just don't come expecting immaculate conditions or strategic design complexity.
