ABOUT THE CLUB
ABOUT THE CLUB
Parker, CO | Founded in 2006 and set on 1700 pristine acres, Colorado Golf Club is the mastery of Bill Coore and Two-time Masters Champion Ben Crenshaw, renowned golf course architects and designers of such acclaimed courses as Friars Head, Sandhills and Bandon Trails. They chose to dedicate themselves to Colorado Golf Club because of the land, the people behind the vision, and the freedom they were given in design. As Ben Crenshaw says, “this land is gifted for golf. We didn’t have to build the course. We just had to go find it.”
With over 1200 acres dedicated to golf and open space, and protected by a conservation easement, Colorado Golf Club is a haven for golf, unfettered by any intrusion of homes along the golf course and infused with a sense of seclusion.
Consistently ranked as one of the top modern golf courses in North America. Annually 23,500 rounds of golf are played over the championship 18-hole course from the end of March to early November. In addition, the club has an active 40,000 sq. ft. Clubhouse, 6 Club Cottages, Swimming Complex, and a new Range House Practice Facility, equipped with Trackman and Swing Catalyst teaching sowftware.
