If you’re planning a golf trip to the Rocky Mountains, there’s no better place to stay than in a Visit Winter Park Lodging vacation rental. Not only do our rentals offer comfortable and luxurious accommodations, but they’re also conveniently located near some of the best golf courses in the area, including the world-class Pole Creek Golf Course.

Located just outside of Winter Park, Colorado, Pole Creek Golf Course is a 27-hole championship layout that offers a one-of-a-kind golfing experience in the Rocky Mountains. Designed by renowned golf course architect Denis Griffiths, the course features three distinct 9-hole courses, each with its own unique challenges and character.

One of the biggest draws of golfing at Pole Creek is the stunning mountain scenery. The course is situated at an elevation of over 8,000 feet above sea level, providing breathtaking views of the surrounding peaks and valleys. Golfers can expect longer drives and a more challenging game due to the thin air at high altitude, but the stunning natural beauty of the course more than makes up for it.

The Ranch course, one of the three courses at Pole Creek, is known for its rustic feel and incorporation of natural obstacles like meandering streams and thickets of trees. The Ridge course, on the other hand, features more elevated tee boxes and sweeping views of the surrounding mountains. And the Meadow course incorporates natural grasses and rolling hills into its layout, providing a more open and expansive feel.

One of the most memorable holes at Pole Creek is the par-3 8th hole on the Ridge course. This hole features an elevated tee box with stunning views of the Fraser Valley and the Continental Divide in the distance. However, golfers must hit their shot over a deep ravine to reach the green, making for a nerve-wracking and exciting experience.

After a day on the course, golfers can return to their Visit Winter Park Lodging vacation rental and unwind in comfort and luxury. These rentals come in a variety of sizes and styles, from cozy cabins to spacious mountain homes, ensuring that there’s something to fit every group size and preference.
