Signature holes

#5 - very short hole with a tiny ~2-ft-wide sand trap (Hooked On Golf, 2011)

Local knowledge

Only worth it as part of a Zion east-side / Bryce trip - the direct route from St. George runs through Zion NP (park entry fee; the Zion-Mt. Carmel tunnel has oversize-vehicle restrictions).
Cooler summer alternative: ~5,200 ft vs St. George's ~2,800 ft.
