COURSE GUIDE

Hole-By-Hole Breakdown

Get to know the course before you tee off. Our hole-by-hole guide gives you a closer look at each of RainDance National’s 18 unforgettable holes—complete with tips, yardages, and features that make every swing a new adventure.

Hole 1

Par 4 | HDCP 13

Hole 1

The northernmost fourteener in Colorado, Longs Peak, is the backdrop to this spectacular opening hole and the aiming point for a player's shot into the green. The landing zone is much larger than it looks, but a straight drive is still ideal. A receptive green for your first approach but short or right is no good.

Par 5 | HDCP 11

Hole 2

Swing away. Bunkers are reachable if conditions are firm. Second shot plays less than you think as that puppy is going to run a while. Long hitters, or those of you playing the wrong tees, can get it near the green in two, but too close is almost more of a challenge. A great little green that is only 16 paces deep on the left.

Hole 3

Drivable for some. Double-able for others. Choose wisely off the tee. Green is receptive to drives, but so are the four bunkers. Many say it's the easiest hole on the course, but they probably hit their drive straight. If the pin is on the right, add a few yards as the greenside bunker is a magnet.

Par 4 | HDCP 3

Hole 4

The first of back-to-back-nearly-600-yard-par 4s. Relax, that's only from the Tour tees. For everyone else, they are the #3 and #1 handicap holes. The hole plays 52 feet downhill with a blind tee shot. Take it off the left bunkers and let it fly. If you don't clear the hill, watch out for the arroyo at the base of the hill on your second shot. Actually, watch out for it no matter where you are.

Hole 5

Enjoy the ride! Hole plays 77 feet downhill. Way more room to the right off the tee, left and it's a goner. Fairway slopes hard down and right to left. Now that you've hit the best drive of your life, you should have a pretty straight-forward, uphill, forced-carry approach to a fun little green. Take plenty of club on the approach, get up and down, and pat yourself on the back. They all get easier from here.

Hole 6

This hole was supposed to play the other direction but thankfully, Fred changed his mind. A beautiful-looking golf hole that should put a wedge or small iron in most player's hands. Get it on the surface and get your birdie.

Hole 7

See that bunker? Do not go there. You have plenty of room to the right. Second shot here will make you think. The landing zone is wider the closer you get to the green so give it a ride. Lay back too far and you may not see the putting surface. Go for it, and you better be able to have it drop and stop from 275. Middle of this green is a nice back-to-front sloping valley. Lots of ways to be creative here.

Look at that green! It tends to play pretty true to the number. Three distinct sections to the green. Front pin is the go-zone. Back right pin and you can funnel it back there. Back left pin... well... there is a backstop up there, but that is just a really good pin..

Hole 9

Rip it from the back tees. From the forward tees, note that the fairway gets narrow quickly. Blind approach but look for the 9-foot-tall pin to help you aim. This green is 65,000 square feet but we try to only use a small section of it for #9. A right pin is down in a bowl, a left pin is up on a ridge well-guarded by a bunker. Get it there, but don't go long.

Hole 10

Take it over the right bunker and watch it run. More room to the right than you think off the tee. One of the best green complexes on the property. Left pin is in a depression, short and right usually bounces up to the green, and you must stay short of a back pin.

Hole 11

Back up we go. Aim at the center bunker, but do not hit it in there. Not a driver for most. Approach will be an uphill lie so take more club. The green sneakily falls off most sides. Long and left is the miss, short and right is not.

Hole 12

Just another island green surrounded by native grasses and arroyos. Make a confident swing to the middle of the green. Many question their club selection mid-swing, so if you don't make it, there's a drop zone available on the forward tees.

See that old thresher in the distance? Aim for that. Split fairway with lots of roll. Many ground-game options for the second and third shots. That arroyo on the right is a deep one. Green is subtle, but sneaky. Usually best to land it left of the pin.

Must. Stay. Left. Go ahead and tempt it, we all have, but the right side of the fairway is not kind to most. Approach is straight forward but a back pin is a long way back there as the green is 41 paces deep and flows significantly back to front.

Hole 16

Split the uprights and find your ball on a nice, large, green runway. As big as this fairway is, Fred actually shrunk it from the original plans. Do your best to find this fairway and you can go at this par-5 in two. Yes, that is a leisurely, public walking trail you must hit over, but don't think about that, think about making eagle. The further right you go, the better angle, but the further left will give you a shorter number. Green is wide open with short grass on every side and zero bunkers.

The smallest green on the course can be an easy deuce or a hard double bogey. Most players will have a wedge unless the tees are on the east side. That angle adds distance and hides bunkers. Green has a back tier that can balls easily spin off. Play smart..

Hole 18

Only 621 more yards! And most of them need to be airborne. Tee shot may not be a driver as the fairway abruptly turns into a deep arroyo. From there you have options. Lay up across to the right and risk not seeing the pin for your third shot or bust it up by the green and risk the bunkers/arroyos. There is no wrong answer, but you should be on short grass for your approach as this green has some pin locations. No ball stops in the middle of this green, so aim and execute wisely.

The G.O.A.T. Ranch & Driving Range

At RainDance National, practice isn’t an afterthought—it’s an experience. Our two signature practice areas give players of all ages and skill levels the space to learn, improve, and have fun.

The Goat Ranch

Measuring an incredible 61,500 square feet, The G.O.A.T. Ranch is the largest putting green in Colorado—ten times the size of the average PGA Tour green. More than just a place to work on your short game, it’s a space designed for friendly competition, casual fun, and family-friendly introductions to the sport. With dedicated areas for putting, chipping, pitching, and bunker play, The G.O.A.T. Ranch is equal parts playground and practice ground.

Driving Range

Nestled between holes 11, 13, and 14, the driving range, or otherwise referred to as “The Funk Yard,” is our uniquely styled double-sided driving range. The upper tee complex is perfect for warming up with irons and wedges, while the lower deck is built for long-game work. Aim at scattered antique vehicles, weathered farm equipment, and cottonwood stumps—each one a nod to the land’s agricultural history. It’s as much a visual story as it is a training ground, and there’s nothing else like it in Colorado.
