Salt Lake City, UT, August 9, 2026 —
The historic Homestead Resort in Utah is embarking on a comprehensive $17 million renovation of its renowned golf course. The project, led by distinguished golf course architect and former BYU golfer John Fought, aims to revitalize the course with significant changes to its layout and features.
The extensive renovation will encompass the reshaping of all tee boxes, fairways, and greens. A key aspect of the project involves the removal of overgrown trees, a move intended to enhance scenic vistas across the course. Additionally, a new, modern irrigation system will be installed to ensure optimal course conditions.
Managed by Troon Golf, the resort’s golf course is set to introduce larger greens following the redesign. A notable feature will be a unique double green serving both the 9th and 18th holes, adding a distinctive element to the course’s playability.
The renovation is part of a larger expansion plan for the Homestead Resort complex. The redesigned golf course is anticipated to reopen to the public in the summer of 2027.
