Venue Overview

Lincoln Park Golf Course is the oldest operating golf course on Colorado's Western Slope, tracing its roots back to 1926 and still welcoming golfers to its smooth, subtly breaking greens just minutes from historic downtown Grand Junction. This walkable 9-hole layout pairs old-school charm with a genuinely challenging test, built in an era of hickory shafts and mashies that still holds its own against today's oversized drivers. As the sister course to Tiara Rado Golf Course under the Golf Grand Junction umbrella, Lincoln Park gives players, leagues, and event groups an accessible, affordable home base in the heart of the Grand Valley.

About the Course

Lincoln Park's nine holes are compact, walkable, and full of character, with subtle green contours that reward accuracy over raw power. The course offers six distinct sets of tees, an unusually generous spread for a 9-hole layout, so golfers of every level can find the right test. The Black Tees challenge low-handicap players, the Blue Tees suit the course's Men's Club membership, and the Red Tees are the most commonly played, popular with high handicappers, junior golfers, and golfers looking for a fair fight. The Yellow Tees serve the Ladies Club membership and senior golfers alike, while dedicated Family Tees, marked by discs in the fairway on the par-3 holes, keep the course approachable and fun for young children playing alongside their parents. Because it's an in-town, quick-turnaround course, Lincoln Park is a favorite for golfers looking to sneak in nine holes after work or introduce newcomers to the game without the time commitment of a full 18.

Practice Facilities

Lincoln Park is anchored by a 10-acre practice facility, complete with a driving range and three separate practice greens for chipping and putting work. It's a genuinely useful warm-up complex for a course this size, giving golfers real room to work on their full swing and short game before heading to the first tee. Junior golfers and beginners in particular benefit from the extra practice green space, which allows instructors to run clinics without crowding out golfers working on their own games.

Dining and Amenities

The course features a full-service pro shop stocked for last-minute needs and a snack bar for refueling between nines. Rental pull carts and gas-powered golf carts are available on site, making the course convenient for walkers and riders alike.

Lessons & Instruction

Lincoln Park draws on the same PGA-certified instructional team that serves Golf Grand Junction's flagship Tiara Rado facility, with lessons available by appointment for players of every skill level.
