The Local Drive Rino

Venue Overview

The Local Drive RiNo is Denver's largest indoor golf facility and craft cocktail bar, located in the vibrant River North (RiNo) neighborhood just a mile north of downtown. Built for year-round, all-weather play, it pairs state-of-the-art Trackman golf simulators with an elevated, locally sourced cocktail program in a bright, welcoming space — the opposite of the typical dim simulator "man-cave." With access to over 400 courses, an in-house PGA pro, monthly leagues, memberships, and private event space, The Local Drive RiNo is one of the metro's premier destinations for golf, gatherings, and a genuine taste of Colorado, no matter the season or the weather.

About the Venue

The Local Drive RiNo brings golf and hospitality together in a 5,100-square-foot space designed for both serious play and stylish socializing. Custom Trackman simulators — among the most accurate golf-simulation technology made — let players tee off at more than 400 legendary courses, including iconic PGA Tour venues, or play casual games suited to every skill level. The fully indoor, climate-controlled setup makes great golf possible any day of the year, while the bright, colorful interiors, lofty ceilings, and artwork from local artisans create a space that feels welcoming to golfers and non-golfers alike.

The Experience & Play

The experience at The Local Drive RiNo is built around accessible, weather-proof golf that works for everyone. Players can compete, practice, or play casually across more than 400 courses and a range of fun game formats, with Trackman analytics for those who want to sharpen their game and laid-back options for groups just out for a good time. A round of simulated golf moves far faster than an outdoor 18, making it easy to fit in after work or turn into a full night out — and for those who'd rather not swing a club, there are bar games and a standout cocktail menu to enjoy.

Golf Lessons & Instruction

The Local Drive RiNo offers professional instruction from its in-house PGA golf pro. As of 2026, lessons at the RiNo location are led by Eric Muslawski, a former professional touring player with over two decades in the game. A two-time college MVP who led his team to an NCAA national championship tournament, Eric studied swing mechanics at top academies and has spent the past decade helping students at premier courses around the country, along with junior players at esteemed programs including the Missing Link Golf Academy and The First Tee. He teaches golfers of all skill levels, from first-timers to players chasing those last few strokes off their handicap.

Lessons are conducted indoors on Trackman, with video analysis available, and include:

• Private one-hour lessons
• "30 & 30" swing evaluation and guided-practice sessions
• Multi-hour lesson packages at a discounted rate (transferable once; valid one year)
• Group lessons and clinics offered throughout the year

To book a lesson, visit the RiNo location, book online, or contact the golf pro directly.

Beyond leagues, the venue is a turnkey private-event space: its 5,100-square-foot bar-and-simulator space accommodates up to 144 guests, making it ideal for team outings, social and networking events, holiday parties, and corporate gatherings.
