Pelican Lakes at Pelican Lakes Golf & Country Club

Pelican Lakes Golf & Country Club sits in Windsor, Colorado, a growing community in the northern Front Range corridor between Fort Collins and Greeley. Designed by Ted Robinson Sr., the course reflects his characteristic approach to shaping water features into the routing, with several lakes and ponds integrated throughout the layout. The property occupies relatively flat terrain typical of the Colorado piedmont, where the high plains meet the foothills of the Rockies visible to the west.

Robinson, a California-based architect active from the 1950s through the 1990s, built a substantial portfolio across the western United States and became known for incorporating water hazards as both strategic and aesthetic elements. At Pelican Lakes, these features influence club selection and shot placement on multiple holes, requiring golfers to navigate carries and manage risk around the shorelines. The course serves both the private membership and daily-fee play, functioning as a community amenity within the residential development that surrounds it.

The Windsor area experiences the semi-arid climate and elevation conditions common to northern Colorado, with playing conditions that can vary significantly with seasonal weather patterns and the region's frequent winds. Pelican Lakes provides a golf option in a part of the state where courses must balance irrigation demands with water availability, and where the growing season is shorter than in lower-elevation regions. The facility includes practice areas and clubhouse amenities typical of a combined country club and public-access operation.
