Special Club Features

For over a century, Lakewood Country Club has been a haven for golfers and a favorite gathering place for our members. Surrounded by beautiful views, our award-winning course has been recently redesigned and offers several challenges to any golfer. With over 48,000 square feet, our clubhouse and our dining room have played host to Cardinals, PGA winners, and delighted guests for many years with their
culinary creations.

Our course was designed in 1908 by Tom Bendelow, and it was one of the first courses ever designed in the United States. This once barren prairie land now boasts a PGA Top-100 course and has played host to local, state, regional, and national events, including three USGA Championships and one Trans-Mississippi Championship.

Lakewood Country Club is one of Colorado’s oldest and most respected private country clubs. Lakewood has been host to many state and regional tournaments throughout its history of over 100 years. Three USGA Championships and one Trans-Mississippi Championship have been held at Lakewood.

It features a rolling, wooded golf course that was once a farm. The original layout, designed by Tom Bendelow, had dirt fairways and sand greens. By 1910, the course had expanded from 9 to 18 holes, and the course was “turfed” with grass greens and fairways, replacing the sand and dirt. The highly regarded Donald Ross redesigned the course in 1916. In 2017, Gil Hanse—the architect of the Olympic course in Rio, Brazil, restored several Lakewood Country Club holes back to the original Donald Ross style . Many excellent players have called Lakewood home throughout the club’s 100-year history, including Mildred “Babe” Zaharias.

Club is open 6 days per week, 11 months per year.
