Haymaker Golf Course

This 233 acre, city-owned public golf course features at least four sets of tees per hole, playing from 5,059 to 7,308 yards. It has been described as a core golf course built for golfers. There is no residential development, no distractions except for the broad vistas of the Yampa Valley and Mount Werner. The course offers good green size with different cupping positions. It also has a substantial practice area – driving range, sand trap, chipping and putting green. Haymaker accommodates and challenges golfers of all ability levels from novice to professional.  Nationally acclaimed golf course architect Keith Foster was given a challenge to design a championship-caliber course in the heart of Colorado's Yampa Valley and integrate the rich pastoral background of this ranching community while maintaining a precious balance with nature. The design would also incorporate the 360 degree views of the surrounding valley, mountains and maintain native grasses and wetland areas.
