Indian Hills Golf Course

Venue Overview

Indian Hills Golf Course is a 9-hole public golf course in Yuma, Colorado, and has been a cornerstone of recreation in Northeast Colorado since opening in 1970. Owned and operated by the High Plains Recreation Association (HPRAI), the course plays 3,531 yards from the longest tees to a par of 36, with a slope rating of 120 and a USGA course rating of 35.7, offering an enjoyable challenge for experienced golfers while remaining approachable for beginners.

About the Course

More than fifty years after opening, Indian Hills Golf Course continues to be a place where friendships are formed and traditions carried on across generations of Yuma-area golfers. The course is known for its wide-open views of Colorado's eastern plains, well-maintained fairways, and fast, undulating greens. Strategic bunkering, mature trees, and varying hole lengths require thoughtful shot selection and reward accuracy, giving the course more character than many small-town 9-hole layouts. Three sets of tees allow golfers of every skill level to tailor their round to their game, from beginners and juniors to low-handicap competitors.

Practice Facilities

Indian Hills offers a complete practice facility designed to help golfers improve every aspect of their game, including a driving range for full-swing work, a dedicated chipping area to sharpen the short game, and a practice putting green to fine-tune touch before heading to the first tee.

Dining and Amenities

The course is home to The Lunch Box at Indian Hills and the Caddy Shack, giving golfers a place to grab food and relax before or after their round. Indian Hills also offers affordable memberships, daily play opportunities, leagues, tournaments, and junior golf programs, reflecting HPRAI's mission to make golf accessible and enjoyable for the whole community. The course is maintained by Golf Course Superintendent Scott Jones, whose extensive background in course management plays a key role in keeping Indian Hills in excellent condition throughout the season.

Lessons & Instruction

Indian Hills Golf Course does not currently list a dedicated PGA-affiliated teaching professional, and the club's own staff directory does not name a specific instructor. Golfers looking for formal lessons should plan to arrange instruction at a nearby regional facility, though Indian Hills' junior golf programs and welcoming atmosphere make it a great place for new players to get started.

Tournaments & Events

Indian Hills hosts a variety of tournaments throughout the season, drawing competitors from across Yuma County and the surrounding High Plains for friendly competition. The course also runs active men's and women's leagues, with the course closed to outside play on league days to accommodate members. Between its tournament schedule and consistent league play, Indian Hills stays busy with organized golf throughout the year.
