Breckenridge Golf Course in Breckenridge, Colorado
It's time to break out those clubs and start getting ready for golf season in Breckenridge! Yesterday the driving range at the Breckenridge Golf Course opened and 18 hole will be ready to play on Friday May 21st. The entire course will be open by the end of the month!!
Breckenridge Coloradois the only municipality in the world to own a "Jack Nicklaus designed", 27-hole golf course. During the summer 2001 golf season, the Town opened another nine holes also designed by Nicklaus and every bit as challenging as the original 18-holes. The new Elk nine as it is named, offers more elevation change than the Bear and Beaver nines. The Breckenridge Golf Course has received many national and regional accolades. Honors awarded by the Colorado Golfer (the State Golf Newspaper) have included; Best Mountain Course, and Toughest Mountain Course. Golf Digest "Places to Play" rates Breckenridge as a 4 1/2 Star Facility, and as one of their top "Upscale Places To Play" in the nation. The course is also Zagat rated.
The golf course is situated in a beautiful mountain valley surrounded by one of the most amazing places to have a home. The Highlands at Breckenridge is home to some of the best mountains homes ever constructed. The clubhouse at the Breckenridge Golf Course sits at an elevation of 9,324 feet. At this elevation the golf ball flies farther and straighter than at lower elevations, as there is less air resistance. The air not only allows you to hit the ball farther, but also offers temperatures that make you forget about the heat of the summer. Typical daytime summer temperatures range from 65 degrees to 80 degrees.
