Here's a rough routing that I came up with... Accommodations can probably go between the pond and the "5950" label.
Haven't thought much about the short course yet but one idea I've had for a while is to take a chairlift/tram up a mountain and then play nine par 3s back down.
Keep it going...add some detail and strategies to the holes. A good chart to put together would be elevations for all the tees, landing areas and greens. Will help you visualize the ups and downs of the routing. A tee shot uphill more than 30 or 40 feet is a chore for the golfer. Obviously, a mountainous site will need some heavy earthwork to make things work properly. Keep in mind the cut and fill that would be required to make a routing work nicely.
