Copper Mountain’s Copper Creek Golf Course Returns To Full 18-Hole Course

Copper Mountain Resort recently announced the grand reopening of its full 18-hole Copper Creek Golf Course, marking a significant milestone in the resort’s commitment to providing world-class recreational experiences. The new holes officially opened to the public on August 9, 2024, the course’s completion comes after an extensive redesign project focusing on four key holes of the back 9.

The redesign, spearheaded by the renowned Dye Designs Group and golf course architects Cynthia Dye McGarey, ASGCA, and Matt McGarey, centered on Holes 12, 13, 14, 15, and the tees on Hole 16. This strategic renovation has elevated the golfing experience while preserving the course’s unique high-alpine character. Before this reopening, guests could play the front 9, repeating 9 holes twice, or enjoying a 14-hole experience due to ongoing construction and redevelopment efforts.

Nestled in the heart of the Rocky Mountains at an impressive elevation of 9,863 feet, Copper Creek Golf Course boasts breathtaking views of the Ten Mile Range. The course’s high-alpine environment provides golfers with a unique opportunity to enjoy pristine mountain air and Colorado sunshine while challenging their skills on a high-class course.

“The reopening of our full 18-hole course is a game-changer for Copper Creek,” said Zach Dobrota, Copper’s golf professional. “Golfers can once again experience the complete vision of the Pete and Perry Dye design, enhanced by the recent renovations. The redesigned holes offer new challenges and spectacular views that truly set Copper Creek apart as a premier high-altitude golfing destination.”

The redesign of Copper Creek’s back 9 presented both challenges and opportunities. The goal was to enhance the playing experience while respecting the natural beauty and elevation of this extraordinary location. During the redesign process, the team drew inspiration from the surrounding Rocky Mountains, incorporating elements that reflect the rugged terrain and majestic vistas into the new holes. The result is a harmonious blend of challenging golf and stunning alpine landscapes that seamlessly integrate with the natural environment.

This reopening represents more than just additional holes. It’s about offering a complete, world-class golfing experience that complements Copper Mountain’s winter offerings and solidifies its status as a true year-round resort. The Copper Creek Golf Course reopening is part of Copper Mountain Resort’s ongoing commitment to enhancing guest experiences and maintaining its position as a leading destination for outdoor enthusiasts.
