Gene Bates' 1989 Green Spring Golf Course is often credited with sparking the golf boom in Southern Utah, one of the first quality championship courses built in the St. George area, ten minutes north of town in the city of Washington. Decades of subsequent development in Hurricane, Santa Clara, and Ivins followed the template Green Spring established. 6,859 yards par-72, course rating 71.9 and slope 130. The 5th and 6th holes are the most celebrated in the area, a pair of risk-reward tests set against the Pine Valley Mountain backdrop with red-rock outcroppings framing the playing corridors. Peak green fee runs $50-75, value pricing for an early Gene Bates design with real championship-test credentials. Fits a St. George trip as the 'historical starting-point' round that predates all the glamour-resort red-rock courses nearby.
Green Spring Golf Course's peak-season green fee is around $70 per round. Off-peak rates vary by season. Call the pro shop for current shoulder pricing. Cart, range balls, and caddie fees are typically separate. Estimate the full St. George trip cost
