The story of Seven Canyons began in 2000 when PGA golf legend Tom Weiskopf saw the site and was immediately stricken by its natural beauty. Over the next few days, Weiskopf toured the land on horseback with a notepad, and within two weeks, the master plan for the Seven Canyons golf course was realized. He said, “The sheer beauty of Seven Canyons Golf Club is arresting. I consider it irreplaceable real estate.”
