2019 Montrose, Colorado Visitor Guide - 52

THREE BIRDIES
ONE MONTROSE

W

ith such a variety of golf in
town and more than seven
months of 50-degree (or
warmer) weather, Montrose
is a perfect golf vacation destination that
sees plenty of sunshine.
Montrose's three courses - Black
Canyon, The Bridges, and Cobble Creek -
along with several others nearby - Delta's
Devil's Thumb Golf Club, Ridgway's Divide
Ranch and Club, Telluride Golf Club, and
Cedaredge Golf Club - together attract
traveling golfers to the area.
Testing your skills on several different
courses adds appeal for a memorable
golf vacation. And while all of Montrose's
three
beautifully-groomed
courses
sport jaw-dropping views, each offers
something different for players of all
levels: The Bridges is a Nicklaus Design
championship course, while The Links at
Cobble Creek is more open off the tee
with bigger greens, and the Black Canyon
course is shorter and narrower.
THE BRIDGES features a traditional style
that incorporates an abundance of native
plantings, natural arroyos, rock features,
lakes, waterfalls - and, of course, bridges
- that wind through 400 magnificent
acres in the heart of Montrose. The
360-degree views of the surrounding
mountains make for a memorable and
scenic round of golf. Multiple tees may
vary the length of the course from 5,380
to 7,201 yards.
The Nicklaus Design team incorporated
a higher degree of difficulty into The
Bridges, yet also made it an enjoyable
layout for the average golfer.

BLACK CANYON GOLF COURSE
Golfers of any skill level will appreciate
the design and challenge of this unique
public course, owned and operated by
the City of Montrose since 2014. The par70, 18-hole, family-friendly Black Canyon
Golf Course features a classic, tree-lined
park setting with a pond water feature,
par-34 front nine, and a more open, linksstyle back 9. Locals frequent the unique
public course and are particularly fond of
the course's park-like setting. Make the
day complete by stopping in at the new
Divot's restaurant for a delicious selection
of tavern fare and a great variety of beers.
THE LINKS AT COBBLE CREEK
The Links at Cobble Creek is a par-72
championship golf course that features
ten lakes and a cobblestone creek
meandering through every hole on
expansive, undulating terrain. The course
length measures 5,203 yards from the
red tees and 6,982 yards from the gold
tees to accommodate golfers of varying
abilities. The Creekside restaurant is a fine
dining option offering Italian-inspired,
Colorado-fresh cuisine in a casually
elegant space.
