Collindale Golf Course




About this course
Collindale Golf Course is a municipal facility in Fort Collins, Colorado, designed by Frank Hummel and serving the northern Colorado golf community. The course occupies relatively flat terrain characteristic of the Front Range corridor, where the Great Plains meet the foothills of the Rocky Mountains. The layout provides accessible public golf in a region where mountain views to the west form a distinctive backdrop, though the course itself plays through open, prairie-influenced landscape. The design reflects the practical considerations of municipal golf from its era, with straightforward routing that accommodates players of varying abilities. Water features and mature trees frame several holes, while the generally level topography allows for walkable rounds. The course operates within the Fort Collins municipal golf system, which has historically emphasized affordable access and community programming alongside daily-fee play. Collindale serves both local residents and visitors exploring the Fort Collins area, which has grown significantly as a regional center along Colorado's northern Front Range. The facility includes standard practice areas and a clubhouse typical of municipal operations. The course experiences seasonal play patterns common to Colorado's high-elevation climate, with peak conditions during the summer months and limited winter availability depending on weather.

Getting there
Most visitors to Collindale Golf Course arrive via Denver International Airport, roughly seventy-five miles to the south, then trace Interstate 25 northward through the gradual rise of the Front Range corridor. The hour-and-a-quarter drive transitions from sprawling metro to open ranchland before Fort Collins emerges against the foothills, its tree-lined streets giving way to the course's welcoming expanse on the city's eastern edge. For those flying private, Fort Collins-Loveland Municipal Airport sits just minutes away, offering a discreet gateway to this high-plains municipal gem where the Rockies loom close and the air carries the crispness of elevation.
