About Pole Creek Golf Club

Pole Creek Golf Club in Tabernash offers Colorado mountain golf across three distinct nine-hole courses: The Ranch, The Meadow and The Ridge. The layout works through considerable elevation changes at altitude, in a quiet alpine setting.

The Ranch and The Meadow nines wind through open fields dotted with wildflowers, with views toward the Continental Divide. The Ridge nine climbs higher still, and the club's golf professional, JT Thompson, points to it as home to the most striking vista on the property.
