About this course

The Olde Course at Loveland sits in northern Colorado, where the high plains meet the foothills of the Rocky Mountains. Designed by Henry Hughes and opened in the mid-1990s, the course occupies rolling terrain with views toward the Front Range. The layout takes advantage of natural elevation changes and incorporates native grasses and water features that reflect the region's semi-arid landscape. The routing moves through open meadowland with occasional stands of cottonwoods and pines, creating a mix of exposed and sheltered holes. Hughes designed the course with strategic bunkering and generous fairways that reward thoughtful placement over pure distance. Several holes play across or alongside ponds and creeks, adding both visual interest and tactical considerations for approach shots. The greens feature moderate undulation, and the prevailing winds from the west can significantly influence club selection and shot shaping throughout the round. The Olde Course serves as a daily-fee facility accessible to the Loveland community and visitors exploring Colorado's northern Front Range golf options. The setting provides a contrast to mountain courses at higher elevations, offering a more traditional parkland experience with mountain backdrops. The course appeals to golfers seeking a straightforward test that emphasizes course management and accuracy in conditions typical of Colorado's high-altitude plains environment.

Getting there

The journey to The Olde Course at Loveland begins at Denver International Airport, roughly an hour's drive north through the Front Range corridor where the high plains meet the foothills of the Rockies. As Interstate 25 carries you toward Fort Collins, the exit west into Loveland reveals a landscape of open ranchland and distant peaks, the air noticeably thinner and crisper than the mile-high city behind you. The final approach trades suburban sprawl for quiet residential roads that give way to the club's secluded setting, where the drama of Colorado's eastern slope unfolds in full view - a fitting threshold to one of the state's most thoughtfully crafted daily-fee experiences.
