About this course
Four Mile Ranch Golf Club opened in 2008 on a former cattle ranch east of Canon City, Colorado, with views toward the Sangre de Cristo and Wet Mountains. The course was designed by architect Jim Engh, known for unconventional, natural-looking layouts, and it has no traditional sand bunkers. Instead, white shale ridges called hogbacks, along with rock outcroppings and small canyons, define much of the strategy and visual character. Fairways roll with the terrain, producing uneven lies, and several greens are elevated or partially blind from the fairway. The course is open to the public and plays to a par of 72 across 18 holes. Its remote high-desert setting, about 45 minutes from Pueblo, has made it a destination course for golfers touring southern Colorado.

Cheyenne Mountain Resort Golf Club
Colorado Springs, CO · 27 mi away
Cheyenne Mountain Resort Golf Club, operated as the Country Club of Colorado, sits at the base of the Rocky Mountains in Colorado Springs around a 35-acre lake. The 18-hole course was designed by Pete Dye and opened in 1973, giving it a different design character from the area's more traditional parkland courses. The par-71 layout climbs gradually from lower ground into the foothills, and the closing holes make extensive use of the lake, forcing players to weigh carrying the water against playing a longer, safer route. Troon began managing golf operations at the club in 2023, while Aimbridge Hospitality continues to run the resort's lodging and other amenities. Play is available to resort guests and club members, making it a resort-style access course rather than a fully open public facility, and it is generally regarded as a scenic, moderately difficult round that pairs well with a Colorado Springs golf trip.
Broadmoor Golf Club - West Course
Colorado Springs, CO · 28 mi away
The Broadmoor Golf Club's original course, now part of its West Course routing, was designed by Donald Ross in 1916 at the base of Cheyenne Mountain in Colorado Springs, commissioned by resort founder Spencer Penrose. It later saw work from Robert Trent Jones Sr. as the Broadmoor's golf offerings expanded to 36 and then 54 holes. The mountain setting brings significant elevation and thin-air conditions into play across the layout. The West Course is part of the Broadmoor resort complex, accessible to members and hotel guests.
Broadmoor Golf Club - East Course
Colorado Springs, CO · 28 mi away
The East Course at The Broadmoor in Colorado Springs opened in 1918 as a Donald Ross design, built into the foothills of Cheyenne Mountain at about 6,200 feet. Robert Trent Jones Sr. later reworked and expanded the club's golf, and the East retains Ross bones with Jones-era changes. Altitude and slope define the golf. The ball carries farther than at sea level, and putts break toward the plains no matter how the green looks, which is the local advice every visitor is given. Greens are firm and the routing climbs and falls with the mountain. The course hosted the 1959 U.S. Amateur, won by Jack Nicklaus, the 1995 and 2011 U.S. Women's Opens, and the U.S. Senior Open in 2008 and 2018. Play is available to resort guests.
