CapRock Ranch · Nebraska, Valentine
Por Top 100 Golf Courses ·
Situated to the southwest of Valentine and just a few miles north of The Prairie Club, CapRock Ranch is destined to be the next great private golfing destination located in the sand hills. It features the same Snake River Canyon that appears on the Pines course at The Prairie Club, with almost half the holes routed along the rim of this natural ravine.
The property was scoped out back at the start of the new millennium by rancher and retired surgeon Cleve Trimble, who brought in Gil Hanse to create a routing for a proposed new course. Unfortunately, ill health forced Trimble to sell some of the land to Paul Schock, who went on to develop The Prairie Club with Tom Lehman and Graham Marsh as course architects.
In 2018, John Schuele, president and CEO of the Waitt investment company, was keen to revitalise the old project which had been on hold for more than fifteen years so he reached out to Trimble with a view to raising interest in the stalled venture, bringing in a group of founding investors to finance the development of the golf course and associated infrastructure.
