Lake Estes 9-Hole Golf Course Rate Increase

In order to implement critical improvements, offset rising utility costs and better support the golfing community, the Lake Estes Golf Course is proposing to modify rates for the 2022 season. Proposed rate changes would include modest increases in green fees ($4.00), carts ($2.00), and season passes ($36.00 - $65.00).

The 9-hole course has not experienced a rate increase in 5 years, and with ever-increasing operating expenses, the modifications are necessary to offer an improved customer experience while continuing to operate at a profit. The rate modifications will allow for multiple necessary improvements at the 9-Hole. Planned improvements include, but are not limited to: necessary building maintenance, improvements in merchandise offerings, a newer, more efficient cart fleet, and updated rental equipment.

Since the golf course is located on U.S. Bureau of Reclamation Land, any proposed rate change requires the opportunity for public feedback and consideration at the federal level. Feedback is welcomed and can be provided via letter, email, or in person. Letters can be sent to:

Estes Park Golf Course, 1480 Golf Course Rd., Estes Park, CO 80517

Emails can be directed to Director of Golf Operations, Austin Logan. Austin can be reached via email at: austin@golfestes.com. In person feedback can be provided at the golf course when managers are on site, or they can be provided at an Open House during the September EVRPD Board Meeting. Further details can be provided to interested parties by contacting golf course managers Austin Logan or Aaron Tulley
