Red Sky Golf Course features two championship golf courses designed by Tom Fazio and Greg Norman. The Courses are separated by a massive ridge, which serves as wildlife migration corridor for deer and elk. Great care was taken to preserve the natural landscape, including transplanting or re-vegetation of more than 25,000 native plants during the construction of the Tom Fazio golf course alone. Approximately 80 acres of sod was applied to each course, reducing the amount of fertilizer necessary for seed grow-in, which protected the nearby Eagle River from silt erosion, which is common when seed is used. Both Courses have breath-taking views and are registered as Audubon Cooperative Sanctuaries.
