Golf Course

Nestled 20 miles east of Colorado's picturesque Continental Divide and Wolf Creek Ski Area, the Rio Grande Club golf course is surrounded by all the natural beauty that Southern Colorado has to offer: rivers, meadows, creeks, volcanic formations, wildlife and nearby mountain peaks topping 12,000 feet. Our Championship, 18-hole layout offers one-of-a-kind opportunities for all ages and abilities to enjoy the game of golf!

• Our18-Hole championship layout offers two distict nine-hole experiences. The front nine play alongside—and over—the Rio Grande, offering wetland habitat rich with native plants and animals. The back nine takes golfers through pine, aspen and cottonwood trees; stunning rock formations; and landscape thick with wild rose, gooseberry and vibrantly-colored wildflowers. It's along the back nine that golfers meet the challenge of dramatic elevation changes and tee shots that feel as though you are hitting off the very edge of a mountain. The back nine also border Rio Grande National Forest and follow alongside the serene Alder Creek, which flows into the Rio Grande.
