Venue Overview
Kennedy Golf Course is a public golf hub in Denver, Colorado, operated by Denver Golf, offering 27 holes of regulation golf across three nines, West, Babe Lind, and Creek, plus a 9-hole par-3 course, FootGolf, mini golf, and a lighted driving range. With something for every age and skill level in one location, Kennedy is one of the most versatile public golf facilities in the Denver metro.
About the Course
Kennedy’s 27-hole regulation layout, designed by Dick Phelps and built in stages during the 1960s, is split across three distinct nines, West, Babe Lind, and Creek, giving golfers a different look and combination every round, alongside a standalone 9-hole par-3 course for quicker play.

Named for Denver’s First Director of Golf
The Babe Lind nine takes its name from Harold “Babe” Lind, a three-time Colorado Junior champion starting in 1936 and standout University of Denver golfer who, in 1956, was appointed the city’s first official director of golf. Lind personally supervised construction of Kennedy’s back nine, which now bears his name, and went on to national recognition in 1985 when he pioneered a fast-play program at Wellshire and Kennedy, an early effort to speed up rounds on busy municipal courses that drew attention well beyond Denver.
Playing Experience
Kennedy’s three interchangeable nines give golfers a variety of 18-hole combinations at a single facility, while the par-3 course offers a fast, approachable round for beginners, juniors, or golfers short on time. The par-3 course doubles as Denver’s home for FootGolf, and the property also includes three traditional putt-putt courses with obstacle holes for families.
