F&H Park and Recreation District

Venue Overview

F&H Park and Recreation District is a 9-hole public golf course located between Haxtun and Fleming, Colorado, serving the small farming communities of Colorado's northeastern plains. Opened in 1972 and designed by Marty Johnson, the course plays 3,261 yards from the longest tees to a par of 36, with three sets of tees offering flexibility for golfers of different skill levels.

About the Course

F&H Park and Recreation District has served as a recreational anchor for the Haxtun and Fleming area for more than five decades, giving local families and visitors a genuine slice of small-town Colorado golf. The course sits just off Highway 6 between the two communities, making it an easy stop for golfers traveling through the region along the South Platte River Valley. With three sets of tees, the course accommodates everyone from beginners to experienced players looking for a relaxed, uncrowded round.

The layout reflects its 1972 origins, when recreation districts across Colorado's Eastern Plains built modest, community-funded courses to give rural residents an affordable place to play close to home. Marty Johnson's routing makes efficient use of the flat, open plains terrain, with generous fairways that reward straight, confident ball-striking over length. The par-36 layout rewards course management and local knowledge of the wind, a constant factor on this stretch of the plains that experienced regulars learn to play rather than fight.

Practice Facilities

F&H Park and Recreation District offers space for golfers to warm up before their round, keeping the pre-round routine simple and low-key in keeping with the course's small-town character.

Dining and Amenities

The course's rural setting and easygoing pace of play have made it a dependable option for area golfers for generations. General Manager Sheri Bornhoft oversees day-to-day operations, helping keep the district's recreational offerings running smoothly for the surrounding communities.
