Venue Overview
Set atop a scenic mesa overlooking Durango, Hillcrest Golf Club delivers panoramic views of the city and the surrounding Southern Colorado Rockies that few public courses in the Four Corners region can match. Designed by architect Frank Hummel, the 18-hole layout is known for affordable green fees, genuinely friendly service, and conditioning that has earned it a loyal following among locals and traveling golfers alike. Hillcrest has also hosted major amateur competition, serving as the site of the 2018 NCAA Division II Women’s Super Regional Golf Tournament.
About the Course
Hillcrest’s mesa-top setting gives nearly every hole a view worth pausing for, with the town of Durango spread out below and the La Plata Mountains rising in the distance. Frank Hummel’s routing takes advantage of the natural elevation changes across the property, mixing gettable par 5s with tighter, more demanding par 4s that reward accurate iron play. The course is walkable for golfers who prefer to skip the cart, and its combination of fair conditions and big-sky scenery has made it a mainstay of Durango golf for generations of players.
Practice Facilities
Hillcrest maintains a full practice complex, including a driving range and dedicated short-game areas for chipping and putting. The range closes early on Wednesdays and Sundays for scheduled maintenance, but the short-game areas stay open, so golfers can always get in a proper warm-up before their round. The practice facilities sit close to the first tee, making it easy to loosen up on the way out and work on a few extra shots after the round wraps up.
Dining and Amenities
The Hillcrest Deli & Grille serves the course with a full food and drink menu available for dine-in or call-ahead pickup, making it easy to grab a bite before or after a round without leaving the property. The golf shop stocks equipment and apparel, and the club runs a membership program alongside its public daily-fee rates, giving regular players an affordable way to make Hillcrest their home course. Between the mesa-top views, the on-site grille, and consistently well-kept conditions, Hillcrest has built a reputation as one of the best values in Southwest Colorado golf.
