About Casper Municipal GC
Casper, WY | Casper Municipal Golf Course, Casper's public 27-hole golf course, opened in 1929 with sand greens as putting surfaces. In 1953, the greens were changed to bentgrass. In 1973, a rerouting of holes designed by Robert Muir Graves was conducted. In 1996, The Links Course, an additional 9 holes designed by Golf Course Architect Keith Foster, was added to the Park and Highlands Courses.
Today, the Casper Municipal Golf Course has sweeping views of Casper Mountain and boasts three unique and challenging nines, the Park Course, the Highlands Course, and the Links Course, to create a different experience each time you play.
