On Monday morning, when a fast-moving wildfire raged across the Sandhills of Nebraska, one of the landmarks in its path was GrayBull Golf Club, a soon-to-be completed course, tucked amid the dunes and prairie grasses, just east of North Platte.

When GrayBull opens in 2024, it will do so as an intimate, pure golf getaway rooted in the experiential ethos that defines the Dormie Network’s growing portfolio of luxury clubs.

On an October visit to GrayBull, it’s the golden hour, when emerald threads of tees, fairways and greens stand out even more from the native grasses turning brown and gold.
