Best golf courses near Fort Collins, CO

The newest addition to Front Range golf, opened in 2022, is a prairie style course from former Arnold Palmer associate Harrison Minchew and playing professional Fred Funks that’s laced with rugged ravines and can be stretched to over 8,400 yards, an asset in the mile high air (and somewhat ironic given that Funk was a notoriously "short" driver of the ball). Part of a large resort development that will continue to improve as it matures, there are a number of attractive but heart-pounding all-carry shots over the arroyos, meaning golfers better come with their A-games.

Highland Meadows is an enjoyable, player-friendly public track located just south of Fort Collins. The course, which plays through a residential community, offers wide fairways and large greens. Despite the forgiving landing areas, well-placed bunkers, deep ravines and ponds all provide intrigue and challenge.
